Hi again. As I said in my last post, I manage to avoid the game crashes by playing at the default resolution. I still periodically have it kick me out of a mission in the middle though. This is what the log file looks like when that happens:

Code: [Select]

So I guess that tells you what is happening to me, if not why. It only happens maybe one in 20 missions. Let me know if you want me to try anything.

Hi all. I posted a few days back, haven't heard anything but I have played with it a bit since then. I was having trouble with the game crashing when it loads a mission map. Sounds a bit like what mkpalos reports, except sometimes I could play and it kicked me out of the map mid-mission. Anyway, I've found I don't have those problems at all if I leave the resolution at the default of 1024x768. I get crashes at 1920x1200, my preferred setting. If I try to set it to 1600x1200, it changes resolution several time then bumps me back to the menu at the original, low resolution. Hope that helps.

Hi

I downloaded this the other day. I played the previous public release when it came out and I wanted to see how things were going. So thanks for making a build for someone with casual interest like me. Grateful though I am, I probably wouldn't bother posting if I didn't have problems.

First off, sound is largely not working. My ufoconsole.log is littered with "Could not find sound file:" and so on. I know others have posted about this but I might as well mentioning it since I went through the ordeal of registering.

More importantly, I am getting kicked out of battles. Sometimes the entire game crashes when I load the incident map. Twice, I was partway through a battle when the game kicked me back to the world map without explaining. The first time that happened I tried to get back to the battle and the game crashed when the map loaded. The second time, I just waited around and eventually my drop ship headed back home. Sadly, I seem to have overwritten the ufoconsole.log for that occurrence. The events.log just shows me playing, if that helps.

The last entry is from me trying to reproduce the bug this morning. It played through fine though. Let me know if there is anything you guys want me to try.

On the plus side, it looks like a lot of work has gone in since the last time I played, especially variety and quality of the maps.
