Rarik Posted October 20, 2003 Report Share Posted October 20, 2003 Hey guys, well, after much testing and tweaking it seems that the exact problem happens when i go into tactical on large or bigger alien ships. I'm running Windows XP Pro1.4 p4 1 gig rambusradeon 9700 all in wonder pro I downloaded the game from that french website and have been using turbo to slow my system down and have not had a problem until now. I just got done doing a couple ship attack missions when all the ufo's start to swarm around. When i down a large or very large and try to enter combat mode, bam kicked to desktop.

Rarik Posted October 20, 2003 Author Report Share Posted October 20, 2003 Upon further analysis, it seems that this crash occurs when i go to begin these missions on land. I started again from a further back save and I just finished taking out some large and very large ships. But if they are on land when i try to enter tactical... poof.

[[Micah]] Posted October 20, 2003 Report Share Posted October 20, 2003 Sounds like a corrupted saved game.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dillster Posted November 2, 2003 Report Share Posted November 2, 2003 (edited) Same problem here.... If I try to attack a landed ship, it crashes to desktop.... If I wait for the ship to takeoff and then down it - no problems... Edited November 2, 2003 by dillster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dillster Posted November 3, 2003 Report Share Posted November 3, 2003 OK, so a few of us have the same problem, now, who has any suggestions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dillster Posted November 9, 2003 Report Share Posted November 9, 2003 I found a possible solution.... After much mucking aroung, I tried the xcomutil program to split the exe into 2 files (geoscape and tactical) When the game crashed, I ran the tactical.exe and the game resumed with the equip soldiers screen ready for the battle! I've now been able to continue my game! I am one:happybanana: ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
