Hi,

Please try and run the game again.

The as and when it doesn't work, please navigate to the logfile located at: C:\Users\[USER NAME]\AppData\Roaming\UFOAI\2.2.1\base, and attach a copy of it to this thread so that people can take a closer look to see what might be causing the problem.

Hi,

Sorry, I forgot to tell you the filename is ufoconsole.txt which is the logfile you need to attach.

If the problem is the sound system you can disable it by starting the game with +set snd_init 0 parameter AFAIK.
