- Issuing a Point At command for a character who is already using a gun will no longer cause the character's torso to distort.
- Playback of audio under Windows XP is now more reliable.
- Moviestorm should no longer require a force-quit under certain Mac architecture.
- Re-ordering camera keyframes which include Dutch Tilt will no longer cause Moviestorm to crash.

Known issues
- Shift-dragging a character in Director's View no longer creates Move commands.
- Character walks will not work correctly if the character is moving through a door and the walk contains a waypoint.
- Shift-dragging a character causes problems when clicking near to the character's head.
- Shift-dragging a character no longer creates Move here commands.
- Line of flashing pixels at the top of the Characters View.
- Enabling a previously disabled Content Pack will not correctly load the data for that pack.
- Moviestorm's internal Help text is out-of-date.
- Normal maps display incorrectly on faces with morph targets.
- The double-sided material property does not react correctly to light on the back face of the material.
- Filters on the Script View are not working correctly.
- Frames are skipped in output files when rendering to WMV when certain codecs are installed.
- Radeon X-1950 and some HD cards can experience rendering artifacts. These can sometimes be resolved by altering the Graphics Settings within Moviestorm.
- Recently, two NVIDIA driver releases were tested to be incompatible with Movistorm. The driver version numbers were 190.38 and 190.62. With these drivers, you could expect to see the following graphical artifacts:
- Character models deforming and warping during scene playback
- Particle emitters (fireplaces, special effects, etc) not working at all
- Terrain bowl around the set displaying as black
These issues are resolved with later NVIDIA drivers (ver. 191.07 onwards) and we we recommend against using the previous drivers in conjunction with Moviestorm. - Certain third-party codecs may cause instability when moving to the Publisher's View. We recommend saving your work before moving to the Publisher's View, and re-starting Moviestorm before continuing.
