Help - Episode One "Coming Soon" Chapter [spoilers] [close plz]

[Victor2]

Hey there folks, I've just finished trought the game, Citadel's core has blown up and the combine managed to send their transmission to whoever it was intended.

But there's a problem; on the chapter list, there's the "Coming Soon" Chapter, wich of course it's preview to Episode 2, my problem is I can't "start" (play) that chapter, wich I assume it was suposed to "start" after the credits, well, it didn't, the game restarted after the credits, it restarts everytime I try to "play" that chapter. Crap.......

Has anyone else gone through this or is it just me? Any ideas on what's hapening or how to fix it?


EDIT below:


Never mind that error, I've just found out that the Episode 2 preview is not a "map" (.bsp) to be played by source, but rather a divx footage of episode 2, got it played, and it looks awesome, I can hardly wait for Episode 2.

LOL i wouldnt expect you would play it and if you could it would have been at the end of ep1

It's not DivX, it's WMV. If you've got an up-to-date version of Windows Media Player it should work.
You can find the video file in %Steam%\SteamApps\account\half-life 2 episode one\episodic\media, so you can play it in WMP.
replace 'account' with your Steam account name

Yeah, it's WMV allright, I only called it DIVX 'cause the DIVXplayer played it smoother than the winamp.
