Title: Nightmare Scenario - Mission Crash
Post by: Rimmer on October 15, 2005, 12:34:10 pm

I'm experiencing a crash on the Raider wars campaign mission - Nightmare Scenario. Had a check around the forums and couldn't find any other reports of this so I thought I'd post here hoping someone might know the solution.

The campaign has been fine until this point, basically if I hit accept on the mission screen with Incoming Message flashing at the top the game bombs out to an error report. The sound gets stuck in a loop for about 10 seconds before the error report screen appears. I've had a look at the log it generates but I can't see much in there.

So far I've tried, changing all the graphics options, sound options. Installed Rw 2.1 patch, installing the new 3.6.7 scp, but nothing seems to affect the crash. I was hoping someone knew how to correct the problem or at the least skip the mission so I can carry on with the rest of the campaign, assuming it'll work.

Any help would be appreciated :D

You have to paste the error code here or they will not be able to help.

Here's the error log I get, this is when I'm using stock files:

Try the forum search feature. Search for "Nightmare Scenario".

Only seems to come up with this thread. Problem being its a windows based error. Is it possible to skip a campaign mission in the mean time?

A. Try a newer build from the recent builds forum.

B. There is a int3 crash I have just recently discovered.

Oh great. Seriously folks this issue has been discussed a bazillion times. Ok so the search feature isn't working. You can still view the last year's threads and go through the pages till you see a thread with an appropriate title. This issue can be worked around in most cases. Presuming you've installed the 2.1 patch (sticky thread at top of forum) then it involves running a debug build of the game engine on some machines.

Two more threads about nightmare scenario I just found by just going a few pages back through the forum. There are probably more:
