Can't enter battlescape
« on: September 08, 2009, 02:47:11 pm »
I just downloaded and installed 2.3 dev v. r25862, started a new game, equipped my team and so on. Then when the first mission appeared on the map I sent my firebird there. When it reached it's destination I was asked wether to enter, auto-mission or cancel. When I choose auto all's fine, mission successful, when I choose cancel mission is canceled, but when I choose enter, my screen goes black for a split second and then I'm back to geoscape, time is stopped and I can continue playing as if nothing happened BUT I can't play that mission. When I try to enter the mission again the screen goes black except for the green cursor, I can still move it all over the screen and I hear music, but the battlescape is not loading and nothing more appears. I have to shut the game down via task manager.

Any ideas how to solve it?

I'm using Win XP sp 2

Try a newer. Serious bugs were fixed since r25862.

This one isn't quite as new as the current SVN (no test installers are, as by the time it's been built and uploaded something has been updated in the code), but this installer is a little more recent:
