Here is text which I send to the bug reporting:

The error is usually copied to your clipboard when it occurs.  Paste it into a Notepad window, save it as a text file, and attach it to your post, by clicking "Additional Options", and then "Browse" to select the file.  If you don't see "Additional Options", then hit the "Preview" button first.

the problem is in the mod configuration.

 :confused: You are not running TBP as standalone?  :confused:

It called a long string of errors.

 do as jr2 said and post what pops up --
you might also consider running the campaign with a debug build (just switch to FS_Open.exe with the addition _d or _debug in the launcher and click run; a debug build will throw up every error which occurs (even those which have nothing to do with the game crashing)

aehm...
that means you should have RW 3.0 (comes with the TBP 3.4 installer packages - campaign often have their own version numbers)


have you had installed TBP and Raider Wars before?
I'm asking 'cause the bug you mentioned popped up during the 3.4 beta tests when running the 2.0 version of RW

I thought that RD came with TBP package. If I have installed RD separately it's possible I have done mistakes.
Some problems solved when I installed  latest patches to TBP.

now you got me confused -- and I'm TBP staff (I've got that little avatar, ya know)

could you post a list of files in your TBP folder? (maybe a screenshot?)
- this should allow me to see what you have exactly installed and where that bug comes from

Or, you can use the instructions in my sig for "Posting your FS2 directory contents", and replace FS2's directory with your TBP directory... that's usually easy.

What does it say?  BTW, the file must have a .txt or .log extension, IIRC.  Click "Additional Options" > "Browse" for the file.  If you don't see "Additional Options", click the "Preview" button first.
