Hi all,

So after having successfully played through the FS2 campaign I thought I would give mods a try. Downloaded and installed "Crossing the Styx", and when starting the first mission the game just froze completely when I clicked on weapon selection. I couldn't exit the game so I had to power off and restart.

Ever since whenever I try launching the game from wxlauncher (with whatever options or mods enabled / disabled) the game crashes immediately with the following backtrace: https://pastebin.com/X4gtTsvE


As seen from above, using the 3.7.4 version on Sierra 10.12.4. Currently have the 2014 MediaVPs, Crossing the Styx and Vassago's Dirge installed.


Any hints?

How did you install the mods?

Thanks for your reply.

Just manually, placing them in the FS2 library, then activating them through wxlauncher.

As I said, I've played through the main campaign using the 2014 MVP's without a glitch, and Vassago's Dirge seemed to have worked fine (although didn't start playing it, I quit through the first intro video).

Crossing the Styx's own main menu, and in-game HUD loaded fine in the tutorial mission, then the first mission briefing worked fine as well – until, as I said, clicking on weapon selection, when it crashed.

But the fact that I haven't been able to launch the game since the crash is most peculiar – tried disabling everything, and still no success.

Meanwhile went ahead and did a complete reinstall. Got the latest version of wxlauncher, which told me more: it seems that it was looking for the 3.6.12 MVP's, and that is what caused the continuous crash.
