Description
[http://sourceforge.net/p/ufoai/bugs/2469 Item 2469] imported from sourceforge.net tracker on 2013-01-28 19:35:59

The program hangs while trying to load files; in particular, there seems to be a bug with loading the file "_hud.ufo" from the .pk3 file. As a workaround, delete 0ufos.pk3 (it worked for me, leastwise).

Mattn, I think this must be related to the changes you made in file.c; could you take a look at this?

I still have to delete or rename 0ufos.pk3 otherwise the game hangs shortly after displaying the loading screen.
After renaming the file everything works & I can start a Skirmish game. Geoscape untested yet.

two more attempts to fix it properly were made in rr29632 and r29633
