Films of maps you don't have

Is there any way to tell what plug was used for a film? I have some films that i have no idea what map they were played on so i can't watch them.

If Baak doesn't notice this topic, send him a pm he has arcane knowledge of Myth recordings (films).

Myth II 1.7 will tell you this information. So hold on to your films!

Sweet!

Dang, I'm hoping 1.7 will also do my laundry -- can you add that to the wish list?

If you can't wait for 1.7 to open your films, you just need a hex editor to open up the film file itself. Any non-standard (i.e. third-party) plugins will be listed near the top of the file.

Here's a snapshot of a hex editor with a recording from TWS open. You can see the third-party plugin name in the section I highlighted:
