Hello, I'm french so sorry if I don't speak very well...

Yesterday, I had the previous version of Construct 2. All was OK.

Today, I have downloaded the new version, and I cannot see a preview of my game. When I have re-installed the previous version, the problem has disappeared.

But if it's possible I want to enjoy the new version, especially because Firefox 5 users cannot play my games with the previous version.

I hope that I was understandable ! <img src="smileys/smiley1.gif" border="0" align="middle" />

Hi, what operating system and service pack are you using? If you're on XP service pack 1, the new local HTTP server might not work. Have you tried "disk" mode in project properties?

I use Construct 2 r48, I'm on Windows Vista and I didn't find the disk mode.

But I have found a solution : export the game, but it's less practice...

Click "New Project" at the top of the project bar. In the properties bar, change "Preview mode" to "Disk". Does that work?

Sorry but there is something that I haven't understood. In the properties bar, I see "Preview mode" with "File" but I can change only "File" in "HTTP"...

Oops! I meant "File"! :) If you set it to "File", can you preview?

Not sure why HTTP doesn't work - I'll try to figure out why...

Can you try r49, set it back to HTTP mode, and see if it works? I made a change that might affect it.
