Round of strange events.
« on: November 06, 2012, 02:39:59 am »
So I'm using 2.5-Dev the most current version. I've got windows 7 64 bit and a Geforce 550 ti graphics card with latest drivers. 4 gbs of ram.

Anyway I've experienced several interesting crashes/problems so far. The first was I have had two missions of crashed scout ships that if I enter them they load up.. everything goes fine until the first round begins then it teleports me back to the geoscape with all my soldiers critically wounded. *Ended up ignoring this mission due to this* If I auto mission it everyone dies every single time and I lose. Sometime it will begin and all my soldiers will be very very close to death and bleeding from the get go.

After skipping that mission I encountered a mission that I had to auto mission due to it locking up the game.

And finally.. where I am now.. I'm in a mission that introduces the hoverbots and I can get about halfway through and it crashes. One time it auto abandoned it and I had to go back in from round 1.

Attaching my log and my save file to see if anyone else has my issues.

Uh.. log doesn't seem to be there. I made one.. it hasn't successfully saved properly I suppose, due to the game locking up and windows not allowing me to select to save the log.

Maybe it was the mansion map, it is known to take forever to load, even several minutes.

Hmm... that's odd, there should be at least a partial log in the ufoconsole.log

I've followed the instructions for a bug report and found all the foldiers but there is no log file inside it and I've actually had the game create quite a few.. probably 10 or so by now.

ufoconsole.log is saved at C:\Users\(your user account)\AppData (hidden folder)\Roaming\UFOAI\2.5-dev\base\

I appreciate you linking the path but if I was able to retrieve my save it means I found the correct folder :). Problem is there is nothing in it relating to logs. Not sure why its not saving. I've had over 20 crashes on that singular map. I'd just leave it alone if it wasn't a landed mission.

Finally got one to stick.

Edit: Finally got past that mission and got a harvesting mission and its freezing on the enemies turn making a wierd grinding noise. Game was running absolutely wonderfully until the newer aliens started showing up. Specifically hoverbots. And now when it spots a shevaar it hangs. Maybe something in the files or save is becoming corrupted? It seems the more I play the more unstable it becomes.
