I have to install the version of 495Mb and then the patch or just the patch?
Thank you.

If you have CTA 2.12 installed already you just need to install the 2.13 patch.

Ok. Thanks Peter

Peter, do you know whether the animated gif / pptx 2010 issue (i.e. high render quality animated gifs are not properly played back in pptx, but stop prior to the end of the scene) is also fixed? (Since I have the german version I cannot test it, yet.)

In my testing (with CTA 2.13 and PowerPoint 2013) there are no issues even at the highest setting.

Please can you let us know the exact steps you are taking when the error occurs. We will then try to reproduce the problem in PP2010. Thanks.

I simply drag e.g. Emma_Angry from the Perform Learning Kit folder onto the stage and render it (Quick Capture), then click transparency, frequency 15, frames 1 to 152, Looping Options: 1 and paste it into pptx 2010. Nothing else. Starting the pptx presentation Emma runs until approximately frame 50 and then prematurely stops. (However, since I'm working with the German version, which unfortunately is always behind and RL is not willing to change from the German to the English version without paying additional money, I cannot test CTA 2.13 yet).
Anyway, it seems that I'm not the only one having problems with the animated gifs cf. the forum topic: CTA 2.12 and PowerPoint 2010

Thank you for supplying more information. I have passed this to the CTA2 development team to investigate. As soon as I have more information I will update again.

Any idea when the German CTA 2.13 update will be available so that I can test whether the animated gif issue is fixed with this update?
