Title: Scree flashing on "The Intervention" after subspace jump
Post by: Inglonias on January 30, 2012, 07:14:29 pm: So, I decided to replay "The Intervention" but after the subspace jump completes, the screen continues to flash white. The game has done this for three tries so far.

I'm using the 3.6.14 RC4, but I'm afraid I can't get a debug log because if I try to start Blue Planet 2 with the debug build, this happens.

Code: [Select]
ERANGE: String error. Please Report. Trying to put into 32 byte buffer: ÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌ. ntdll.dll! ZwWaitForSingleObject + 21 bytes kernel32.dll!

Anything I can do to help you figure out the problem?

Post by: LordPomposity on January 30, 2012, 11:01:09 pm: There's nothing wrong on your end; this is a known issue with 3.6.14 RC4. Either revert to an earlier build or wait for RC5.

Post by: Inglonias on January 31, 2012, 12:07:58 pm: Didn't know that this was a known issue, and had I known the name of the SEXP involved, I probably would have found it through Google.

Carry on.
