Weird bug in Secret Files

Sorry for starting so many threads

Anyway, I encountered a weird bug in TSF. When I selected the Christmas episode, it says it cannot find the level file. I have Holiday Hare 98 as well, so I copied the level files from there, and then it worked perfectly.
Did they forget to include some levels in Secret Files??

In my TSF Christmas Chronicles wasn't included. Well, I don't know where you got that from. If you downloaded it from the internet it's likely that files are missing.

I did not download it. I bought it on eBay from a guy with VERY good feedback and it came sealed in a box with manual and everything. I can say with 99% certainty that this is not a warezed copy.

It's a "nice price" version thing, though. Stuff that you would expect to find in bargain bins.

Oh well, it works perfectly if I copy the files from the Holiday Hare CD I also bought.

Jazz2 has episode files (.j2e) that determine what episodes appear on that list. As far as I know, an episode file will show up despite if the levels needed aren't in the correct folder. This is why after you copied the levels themselves it worked.

Jazz2 also has awful error handling, so it likely crashed the entire game instead of just telling you it couldn't find the file.

This is very weird. Some programs that are meant to work for TSF do not work with this version of it.

Is it normal that all Jazz 2 episodes are included in TSF?
In my version, I can select every Jazz 2 episode from the normal game too plus the Xmas episode.

Here's a screenshot, notice that the water isn't interlaced in this verison :

As I know TSF comes with only the one TSF episode + normal Jazz2 is included. Correct me if I'm wrong. The water is not interlaced, because you're using 16 bit color, not 8 bit.
