Game crashes on random missions?
« on: March 08, 2022, 06:28:03 am »
I've started a couple of games and things seem to go fine. I can even get through my first mission but then at the second one when I go to land my Skyranger I get an error like this? I'm playing 1.0 git 2021-12-21 11:39.

Whatever it is effects the save game because loading it now it always crashes here.

Please upload a save before the crash, so that we can reproduce the issue.

And of course I deleted the saved game! I turned off the expanded terrain mod and that seems to have solved it. Will test more.

Thank you.

Here is a save of the game right before it crashed going into a battle. Same error. The only mod I had turned on is the XCOM Terrain Pack.

I am playing on Windows 11 and when OpenXcom installed it dumped its resources in the Documents Folder that is under OneDrive (MS's cloud thing) and I'm wondering if this could be the reason why? The game expects assets to be there but doesn't know how to pull them from the cloud?

I'm not sure how I can point OpenXcom to the Documents drive located on the SSD though...

Just spitballing here.

Make a "user" folder inside the OXC folder. This folder will now hold files such as options.cfg, as well as the "mods" folder and save folders.

Is this what you are aiming for?

XCOM Terrain Pack 1.0.2 requires OpenXcom Extended (OXCE) to run.
(It won't work with OpenXcom.)

Ah, the readme on the GitHub is not current then, as it states "The Terrain Pack can be played on both OXC or OpenXCom Extended."

Thank you for the assistance.

yeah, looks like it

the modsite description already says it requires OXCE: https://openxcom.mod.io/terrain-pack

Yeah, I thought I'd have to re-install and use some command line stuff in order to get it to install where I want it to. Will just having a user folder inside the OXC folder work?

Yup, the GitHub needs an updating, I forgot some of the new additions might break backwards compatibility with OXC.

I just went ahead and installed OXCE. Everything seems to work fine now! Thanks again!
