Post by: Det. Bullock on April 30, 2010, 08:55:33 am

The mission crashes exactly when the Vasudan transports arrive.
The debug file is attached.

This is a bug in a model in the mediavps, but in release builds it should be handled gracefully.  Can you play past that point in a release build?

Of course, thanks!

You're welcome. :)

Normally you should play campaigns in release builds only.  Debug builds are for development of campaigns, or for testing in the event you find a problem in the release builds.

Understood.
It seems I forgot about a lot of things about this stuff since I finished High School 5 years ago.   :nervous:

I'm surprised you've been able to play that far with Debugging enabled. It speaks to the quality of the assets and the missions that they're squeaky clean.
