Title: Crash with black screen on entering briefing
Post by: aurora_energy on January 13, 2012, 12:32:19 am
Having some difficulties getting WiH1 to run. Been checking to see if I have any missing files but I have been over the list a dozen times and can't find anything which would cause a problem. I have even tried downloading additional VP's to see if I'm missing something from them, but no luck.

Here's my log. I know it's going to be something obvious, but I am just having no luck resolving this on my own.

Hope you guys can help

My first guess would be that you didn't download the AoA update, only the WiH one. So go check that.

Didn't think that'd be an issue cause I only first downloaded AoA well after August 2010, bout a year later in fact, but I shall try that. Will report back when I have

An update of AoA was released alongside the update of WiH. If you have DLed WiH less than a months ago, you need to re-DL AoA as well.

That did the trick. Thanks for the assistance. Had no idea there was another update.

The WiH release thread clearly says you need to re-DL some parts of AoA. Well, actually not that clearly IIRC, but still.

Ahh yeah, one minor note. Sorry, didn't read the changelog. Was my first time downloading, so wouldn't really have taken any notice to whats changed from previous releases. Should make a note in red in the original post near the links in case lazy people like me miss that.
