Okay, as mentioned in another thread, I'm experiencing a CTD with FS2O. I have submitted a report to Bugzilla, but since it's kind of a show stopper I thought I'd bring it up here as well.

3.4 used to CTD on me during the third mission, sometime between the freighters arriving and the cruisers arriving. No error, I just got plopped back on to me desktop. 3.5 would do it during the first Ravens mission, a few seconds after the first wave of Astaroths showed up. Gobber's latest build, which fixes the weapon bank bug, crashes a little earlier in the mission, before the cruiser Behemoth is destroyed.

I've got a fairly heavy load of mods installed, but they work fine with the retail version, and of course this is a V mission, so no probs there (theoretically). If you guys want, I could try it with a clean install, if you think it's worth the time.

It's a real shame, cos the glow maps made for a real :eek2: factor when I got them working, and I really want to see them in the nebula missions... I always loved 'Slaying Ravana' :)

Oh, and while I'm here - outstanding job, guys. The SCP never ceases to amaze me. Get this bug fixed and I'll love you for ever and ever :D

Happens with one of GE's Silent Threat: Reborn missions also.  I have no idea what may be causing it as yet.

There is a debug build on the downloads section, run that and see if it spews anything.

Not on the ST:R mission, I tried.

BTW, has that bank loadout bug been fixed yet? I'm tired of having 20 Rockeyes in my bomber.

ok I am experiencing CTD on a particular mission. in one of the final missions, Their Finest Hour, 3.5 repetedly crashes to the DEsktop. I will submit with a copy of my fs2.log and error log.

before i reformatted my pc last month, i did a mission with fs2-open3.4.exe, in 4 diffrent types of nebulas, and in absolute darkness using the sun glows made for the BWO mod.

and come to find out it worked supar fine. in apsolute darkness, u see those flying shivan ships and its an errie site. also the gtva ships are superbly beautiful semi lighted and dark.

iin the nebula, it looked pretty good, but i think there wus room for improvement.
