Nice find Nige!

I thought there was something similar some time back but can't quite put my finger on it or who created it. Hmmm....

My windows 8.1 treats it like a sound file and does not show the picture.

Oh...8.1
Make sure it can play .wmv files. You might also download the VLC media player and give that a try.

I'm on Win 7 and it runs fine. Can't speak for Win 8. Anyone?

I already have that player and i finally got it to work and now I wish i had not. That looks so cool but haptek is pretty much dead you can not buy the full version the link does not work.

VLC Media player doesn't look all that great but it is really a program you might want to stick with or at least give it a good try. I recently found a link about it and many of the not so well known features it contains.

I might give the video desktop a try some time for my second monitor.

I use (and have for years), a program called XnView. It handles all those .Jpg, .bmp, gif, etc. files just fine and plays the .avi movies too.

  I'm using Win 8.1 and the vid played okay,  I'm impressed since they are already using the Fullbod characters, I hope they have increased the poly count in the wire form and included collision detection.  Developers have a habit of hiding the bad things.  I wish them luck with the work they are doing and hope it moves along without problems.  Be great to get ahold of one of those characters.
Nige, Thanks for all the help in the past
