Title: HELP!!
Post by: myk_allen on December 13, 2006, 12:13:28 pm

Hi, I am new to this site and have no experience of coding but I have enjoyed X-Com on the PS. That is the reason that i found UFO:AI so appealing and the look of the game has not disappointed - Thank you all for bringing back happy memories of hours spent playing X-Com with friends!! I do have a problem, however, in that the game keeps kicking me out into my desktop and closing down, this has meant that i have not even completed the first mission! Any help/advice would be much appreciated. My O/S is Win XP Home SP2

We first need to know some things. Which version of UFO:AI are you playing? Did you see our debugging and bugs articles in our wiki?

I am using RC6 and I have had a look at the wiki but couldn't see anything that was applicable - It could be that I didn't look very carefully or that i didn't understand.

we need a gdb (the debugger) backtrace to fix your problem.

I have a confession to make, I have just checked the hardware of my shop bought PC and it is integrated graphics, not a 3D card. Sorry to have put you to any trouble.
