Troubleshooting / Re: Game crashes every time I do a terror mission.

Oh hey sorry for not responding.  I actually fixed it rather quickly by turning off the Terrain Pack. 

I read that others had a similar, but different, issue with certain creatures movements causing the game to lock up during terror missions, which was fixed by disabling the terrain mod. 

I tried doing that and it worked immediately.  So far no relapses of the issue after 5 terror missions and 5 months of gameplay. 

Thanks for the responses!  I love this website!

Troubleshooting / Game crashes every time I do a terror mission.

« on: June 06, 2015, 01:04:55 am »

I recently downloaded OpenXcom and it has revitalized my love of this game.  My regular computer is broken and I'm using an old machine that doesn't play modern games.  Discovering Openxcom is wonderful because it fixes the majority of problems with the original game! 

Then I discovered mods...the weapons mods and others are fantastic!  I have the Final Mod Pack, Sectopod HWPs, Shotguns, etc etc as well. 

Now after downloading some mods, my game now crashes when I attempt to do a terror mission.  When I click "Yes" on landing for the terror mission the game stalls for about 15 seconds and then crashes to desktop.  Every time.  I tried skipping the first mission and I get the same mission again next month (same city) and again it crashes if I click Yes on the mission.  I dont even get to the pre-mission inventory screen. 

Any thoughts?
