First off, I want to say a huge THANK YOU to all involved with the creation of the most incredible ComboMod. I had pretty much shelved this game about a year ago after playing a couple of missions and finding all the XCom spirit in Aftermath, but none of the challenge of ye olde XCom. So I went back into XCom-hibernation, and continued my impossible mode campaign on the final and most holy incarnation of the original XCom released for PS1 (if you have not had a chance to try it, you are missing out on the finest version of the game in existence - but it's damn hard to come by, and a much tougher campaign) Anyway, enough of the drivel. After I heard about the ComboMod, I was mildly interested. Once I installed it to just take a quick look around... well, say goodbye to the days of XCom hibernation! Now THIS is a mod! Combined with the First Person Camera mod, I'm now back for the long haul, and extremely grateful to all involved. Unfortunately, the stack walk error is real. At least with WinXP Pro and SP2, which I'm not about to back out for any game, but I guess as long as I save often enough, I should be ok? It does seem to happen at the mission load screen, as Cap'n Kyth or someone else noted earlier in this thread. I get some different info in my stack trace, and some the same: "Application crashed: access violation reading from address 0x00000017! SymInit search path: C:\Program Files\CENEGA\UFO Aftermath SymGetSymFromAddr:487, addr:0x00602a50 StackWalk:6" I keep an extremely clean install and all drivers up to date. nVidia GEForce graphics, SB Audigy, AMD processor, and nothing running in the background. After reading the other posts and seeing that I'm at least the third random system to experience this problem, I doubt it's a driver or hardware issue. Also being a programmer, I know stuff like this is sheer hell to debug, so I'm not complaining either Just adding more diagnostics to the pile of diagnostics. Let me know if there's some way I can help track this one down - things to try, suspicious aliens to terminate...
