firebead Posted November 12, 2003 Share Posted November 12, 2003 Ok, I just got this wired problem on my third campaign. If I shoot the gas tanks (which would have caused a chain explosions) will instantly crash the game to desktop. I said it was wierd because I don't have this problem on my first game. I actuall loaded up the previous game at the exact sam location, and exact same settings, the explosion went fine, and I am not booted to desktop. Anyone else having the same problem. Please cast some lights here. I am stuck and can't move forward... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Biggles Posted November 12, 2003 Share Posted November 12, 2003 I had no problems at all at first either, but on the second campaign i playe dthe bug appeared. Some people say it is caused by using mods. It's a known bug though and is being investigated by Nival, they hope to have a solution in a patch due soon.

firebead Posted November 12, 2003 Author Share Posted November 12, 2003 Thanks Briggles... I unplugged the mod (faster animation, which really helps), but still doesn't work. I guess we just have to wait for the patch then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Biggles Posted November 12, 2003 Share Posted November 12, 2003 Have you also read the threads at the Nival forums on this issue? Perhaps try not shooting those cylinders and see how you go on another map. (BTW - Ill probbaly move this thread to tech discussion) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Biggles Posted November 13, 2003 Share Posted November 13, 2003 The SaveGame mod is reported to cause this too. You don't actually need it, you can use the console to save a game, just type 'Save filename' in the console. Also, the mods are still actually active in your saved games! What you need is to download the tool 'Addmod' and use it to remove the mods from your saved games. That might do the trick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Anonymous Posted November 13, 2003 Share Posted November 13, 2003 One (or two) tidbit(s) of info i just found out. The crash seems to happen only on hard/impossible - and with save/fast anim mods. This leads to a simple conclusion that the altered save ability causes it somehow.The only flaw with that theory would be the fast anim mod, right?Wrong.For some reason when it's installed, you can also save anytime anywhere in any difficulty. I wish the fast anim mod would be available without the save alteration, as it's quite a necessity to have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alaeth Posted November 18, 2003 Share Posted November 18, 2003 I had 2 very re-producatble chain-explosion bugs... I removed all mobs from those two and was able to shoot barrels that before caused the crash. If you're not running any mods, and still experiencing crashes, then try changing to 16-bit color.

Kevs77 Posted December 6, 2003 Share Posted December 6, 2003 I had this same problem when I wasn't running any mods at all. I left the game, played the next day, shot same barrels and no problems. Very strange problem, but I don't think mods are causing it seeing as how I never used them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
