Can't start mission, game stops responding

(1/4) > >>

Duregar:
Hello,

My problem is as follows: I send my squad to the mission site then click enter and ... that's all. Game stops responding.
Nothing goes black/white, music does not stop to play but the game is just frozen. Task manager shows that it had stopped responding.

I've tried stable version 2.4 and dev. version 2.5 and both gave the same result. I've redownloaded and reinstalled the game few times. Cleared registry each time with CCleaner to be sure. Still it doesn't work.  Though I've tried on different PC and there it worked just fine.

My PC:
System: Win7 64bit
Processor: Intel Core I5 2500K
Graphic card: GeForce GTX 670
RAM: 2x4GB

In attachment there is ufoconsole.log from v2.5. It seems it's incomplete (as I've checked ufoconsole.log generated by working game). Right now I don't have ufoconsole.logs from v2.4 as I've deleted them but they were even shorter then the one from v2.5 (Didn't see in then "XML Written to buffer (91072 Bytes)" or anything after it)

If there's some information missing then I will try to provide it. Just let me know.

I hope that you will be able to find solution for my problem.

Sandro:
Alas, file is truncated too early, nothing useful. Try running game with +logifile 2 parameter, it should prevent truncation (i.e. "ufo.exe +logfile 2").

Duregar:
I've tried two different methods (as I haven't been sure if the first had been correct):

1. Added +logfile 2 in target (r. click on shortcut -> properties -> target)
2. Typed logfile 2 into console (as said here: http://ufoai.org/forum/index.php/topic,6534.msg51211.html#msg51211)

The result is, as seen in attachment, not good.

Duregar:
I've installed it on my other computer:

System: Windows XP 32bit (HDD formatted today and today installed system so it's fresh ;p)
Processor: Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600
Graphic card: GeForce GT 440
RAM: 2x4GB

and to my surprise the game DIDN'T work. The same problem as described in the first post: Game starts normally, campaign starts as it should, I send squad on the mission, window pops out where I can enter, auto-resolve (I think that it's called that way) or cancel mission. I click enter and game stops responding ...

Both computers have installed:
Nvidia driver: 301.42

Any idea what may be wrong? I would really appreciate help.

Sandro:
That seems to become really strange then. I was going to ask you to try in on XP 32-bit (that is the version I've got on my dev machine), but if it fails in that condition -- only guess could be that you somehow trying to compile a broken (sub)version (that happens from time to time), or you managed to create a some sort of data layout which confuses UFO:AI
