I am also having this problem.
I am unable to actually enter a mission while playing. Even when I try to play a Skirmish game, it boots me back a screen instead of starting the skirmish.
I assume that my log is pretty much the same as the person before me. Because the same thing happens, I try to enter the mission, and nothing happens except the music changes. It does not usually crash, but just goes on with the mission still there ready to be completed.
(if you direct me how to get the ufoconsole.log ... I can give that to you.)
Here we go :
