Same question. It seems that Valve has changed how their subtick system works. It’s such a pain in the ass. every update messes up the demo system.

Hi, Where can I download the latest version with the fixes? I see that the latest version available for download on the official website is 'v3.15.0 · 2025/9/7'.

For me the error is not resolved.

All demos from the 17. September and following result in a game crash when trying to watch the highlights from the enemy's perspective.

Earlier demos are still working.

I got the latest update 3.15.1. on Windows.

Also tried to re-download the demos as well as re-analyze them.

Please create a new issue with a link to download the demo and steps to reproduce the issue.
Also make sure CS2 is up-to-date, the "CS2 plugin" is set to Latest in the playback settings and you are not using a custom CS2 build - see https://cs-demo-manager.com/docs/guides/playback#cs2-plugin-compatibility.
I just tried with a today demo and it works.
