If you are running the public beta using a shortcut, maybe that is pointing at the wrong place. In your "tags" folder, what files do you see there? Try running the public beta, after it fails, copy/paste your myth_log or attach it to your next post. The log gets overwritten each time you load Myth, Fear, or Loathing. Make sure you copy the log before you load one of those up again. It might hold clues as to what is going on.

I also see that you have some test builds of 1.8 in there? Do they work? If so, something weird is up with your PB EXE, because nothing that would generate that error should have changed. Could you try the 417 build in the private test section and see if that works?

i just tried all the beta builds starting with 409, and 413 is the last one that works
414 and 415 give me the same error as the 1.8 public beta
i got "m2 180 beta.exe" for 416 and it doesn't work either
417 seems to be the current beta?

here's my 413 myth log:

Could you run MD5sums (http://www.pc-tools.net/win32/md5sums/) on the files in your tags folder and post the results?

That error it gave you for that omp file is normal. It does that to anything that is not a plugin that is placed in your plugins folder, but it does not cause any issues.
Interesting, your MD5sums don't match up with mine at all. Is your Myth 2 installation from a different localization?

Thanks for the information, your MD5sums match up with the French foundation tag files I have. I get the same error when trying to run it on that install of Myth2. It appears to be some sort of bug that slipped through starting in build 414. Should get fixed for the next build, which means for now you won't be able to run the public beta unless you get a different set of foundation tag files.
