Hi Nic,
As far as I am aware I'm using the latest demo version. It depends, sometimes there is this crash scene, other times there is some Kerbals floating in space. I have a previous post on here describing the issues in that situation (green faces becoming black and red). Youtube video of a loading and launch should be up shortly at this address, if anything is not entirely clear, just reply and I will try and get better shots etc. http://youtu.be/yT4uj0-WmxY
Thanks again,
Alasdair
