the mission after I/we captured the Shivan Cain cruiser, during next mission load I see the load get too Typhon PDF on top left and the load stops at that point and the program stops responding.

I looked for a solution by typing in "typhon" in the search & found something about the file never being completed or something?

FreeSpacePort has been buggy during training missions and loadout screens, is this just the nature of the beast or could it be because I was playing FreeSpace2 before I decided to see how much different FS1 looked now?

p.s. FS1 looks amazing so glad it got improved.

It needs to build the cache file for the Typhon model. This will likely take some time (especially if you are still running 3.6.12).

Set the mission to load and go get a drink. Check on it later. This has been known to take as long as 10 minutes, depending on the CPU. However, once it is done, it won't have to do it again.

lol that was a fast response.

ok I think it's done it a cppl times with different files because this afternoon I walked out to grab something when I thought it may have locked and was surprised to see the load was done when I got back and yeah I'm using 3.6.12.

it's definitely crashing now, not even bothering to try and load, I get the impression it was doing what you mentioned but is out of data because it's crashing within moments of trying to launch it.

tried viewing the Typhon via the database but game crashes without showing it as soon as I clicked on it.

Download this and place it in your FSPort-MediaVPs folder. I also suggest using a Nightly build if you aren't already.

nightly builds are built upon one another incorporating as they go?

or am I looking for a specific fix, the patch didn't work.

thx for the help btw.

I don't know if this'll help or not but in the tech room database if I try to get information on the GVD Typhon or the GVI Karnak, FSO will crash.

all other ships are fine save those 2 crash the application.

I grabbed 3 update patches that were mentioned in another thread regarding FSO but nothing changed still won't launch.

Please read the FAQ stickied here and follow the instructions there to generate an fs2_open.log

last night I switched campaigns to another one just so I could play something when switched back to FSO the graphics went back to low detail, game launched so I finished the mission which got me past the Typhon issue but the problem resurfaced as soon as I re enabled the details and game refused to load.

at this point I went to the FAQ and ran the game in debug mode in hopes of submitting a report but in debug mode the game is running fine so far.

update: exited Debug mode and no crashes since, some slow loads where it would say not responding but given enough time nothing bad since.... go figure.
