Meridian

Thank you for your help with running OXCE.

Thought I would try the Mod TWotS for TFTD with OXCE.

Works ok with my v7.15  OXCE folder but when trying to run with v8.0.0 folder the load fails and drops me to desktop . T

he error log has the following entries :-

16-01-2025_20-44-43]   [INFO]   Loading rulesets...
[16-01-2025_20-44-43]   [FATAL]   Error loading file 'F:/Users/David/Documents/OpenXcom/mods/TWoTS/MGS_SoldierName/Polynesia.nam'
[16-01-2025_20-44-43]   [WARN]   disabling mod with invalid ruleset: TWoTS
[16-01-2025_20-44-43]   [ERROR]   failed to load 'The world of (terrifying) silence'; mod disabled
F:/Users/David/Documents/OpenXcom/mods/TWoTS/Ruleset/soldiers.rul: Rapidyaml ERROR: reached end of file while looking for closing quote

Is this mod compatible with the latest OXCE version or only runs with 7.15?

Many thanks

Meridian,

A) The mod that is not working is " Nationalities and Flags Expanded Pack " mod by B1ackwolf.  You last posted in this forum thread on 4.1.2024. It appears to be ok but throws me out to the desktop if I install it and activate the mod in the mod options list of OXCE.

B) RE version of FMP - Not sure what you mean by "wrong translation in my language". I am a native English speaker and all mods and downloads have come from the English language OXCE Pages.

Meridian and others ,

Many thanks for your inputs.

A ) Mod was "Nationalities Expanded" which was in the Mods folder and appeared to be the one causing the problem. I have deleted this and the game now runs.

B) I do ( and did )  have FMP v3.5 installed ( apologies , my error ) but what is throwing me is that on the game options screen is the following infomation :

"You are running the latest OpenXcom version"
"Open X-com Final Mod Pack 3.4"
"Open X-com Extended 8.0.0 (v2024-12-30)"

The game seems to be running ok now , just don't know why the opening screen should show a FMP 3.4 version in use when I have 3.5 installed ( the majority of file dates in the FMP mod folder are 3.1.2025 , with some 17.12.2024 )

Meridian,

Thank you for your reply

A)   Log file attached . Hope it is of use.

B) Have just updated the Final Modpack from 3.2.2 (?) to 3.4. but still throws me to desktop . The 7.15.0 version runs ok but 8.0.0 will not run.

If you require anything further please advise as I would like to have version 8.0.0 running if possible

OXCE Support / [Solved] issues with running oxce 8.0

« on: January 15, 2025, 05:52:26 pm »

I am having problems with the latest 8.0.0 build dated 30.12.2024.

A) I can load and run the 7.15.0 version dated 1.11 24 of  OXCE with no problems. However when I download the 8.0.0 win 64 version dated 30.12.2024 and install over 7.15.0 ( or even run in a separate folder ) I run into problems.

The game seems to load ok and i get the intro and options . However after making my selections and pressing  the OK  button I am thrown back to the desktop and can proceed no further.

Has anyone any thoughts ?

B) Also if I try to add the Final Mod Pack as an option  I receive an error message stating that the game is missing a colon in Ruleset/Soldiers_fmp.Rul: RapidYaml   "error could not find : after Key". Whatever this may mean.

The Final Mod Pack works ok under the 7.15.0 build which I have in a separate folder.
