2.4 vs 2.3.1 (Newbies/2.2/2.3 holdouts must read!!!)

[Vulgarius]

Where can I get 2.4.?

2.3.1... The game crashes when starting tactical missions.

2.4 is not yet released, still under development. But you can get development snapshots from http://ufoai.ninex.info/snapshots/ for Windows and Mac.

ps. 2.3 and 2.4-dev savegames meant to be incompatible, I suggest starting a new campaign.

has the cannot load enviroment map 0 for 2.4 been fixed yet? ive wanted to try it out but no joy

[Vulgarius]

I'm getting this also (I found 2.4) but I get:


Could not load environment map 0

just tried the june 26th windows32 snapshot, and im also gettin this

here is the crash thing if it helps, let me know if you need more

Downloaded the latest dev build and am also getting the same error :S

[Edi]

The nightly build package is broken. geever, mattn and the other coders are investigating it.

If you build the game from the source using muton's tools as per the instructions on downloading the source and compiling it, everything works perfectly on Windows. If you have a fast internet connection and a reasonably fast computer, the build time is also not too much. Except for the first time, when every map needs to be built.

[cyllan]

i downloaded the 2.4 version, it looks a lot better , there are acouple of things, the graphics are really nice, but all the soldiers look shining white /silver, like too much light on them, i tried playing with the graphic options, anything more than shader1.3 gives me a  black planet geoscape... i dont get it i have  the lastest nvidia gtx 570 with win 7 64,  it is weird because all the static graphics are very detailed and nice, also in geoscape if you press the radar button ( to show extended range of radar ) most of the map gets too shiny and white.

i also get red boxes in the ground combat screen.....
