[Xerte] Re: Bug fixes - problem with MainPreloader.swf

[Julian Tenney]

I ned the source code, because I don't have a version with those changes in it...

When you pass stuff in, do the cars need to be declared in the swf? Is it that simple? I thought vars got initialised even if they dodn't exist?

Maybe it's not setting some engine level property...  which would be _level0.engine.templatePath?

That's different for local xerte (== FileLocation) and toolkits (==the parent_template folder). Let me see if I can get a clue from the engine.

Yeah I think so - thats what it feels like with me - the path is
getting mangled and so the path passed in is correct.

Check the version on ltdev (ltdev/nextversion or maybe it's newversion
- that one worked)

It looks like templatePath is not getting through or something, as the file does load, and the interface appears, and the titles, just no content...
