Title: Crash at loading screen
Post by: Comrade on January 12, 2009, 03:23:10 pm
Hi guys. I know you'll have seen one of these noob threads numerous times but I've searched for similar threads and can't seem to find a fix to my problem. Simply put, I'm trying to play the Great War campaign on FSport. It's worked so far but once I get to the 3rd mission this appears:

Can anybody help please? Thankyou.

The old standby question is have you been switching camaigns with the same pilot file? you could have corrupted it. if not Lobo will probably come by and fix your problem in 10 seconds.

Oh yeah and welcome to hlp, stay a while will you

EDIT: there is a thread stickied on this board. read it, it might help

Thanks, I'm pretty sure I haven't been switching campaigns. I'm still reading the stickied thread, no luck so far.  :(

Sounds like you're missing some relevant files. Download the latest nightly build from the Nightly Builds board (link in my signature), run the debug build (starts with fs2_open_3_6_10d) and post the fs2_open.log that is generated to \freespace2\data\.

I downloaded the latest nightly and that seems to have solved it. Very strange, I was 94% sure I had the latest build *shrug* Thanks for all your help guys! This place is especially noob friendly.  :)
