Wasn't OXCE issue, I updated it and still same. Log attached, I have a save inside a mission after I updated, it happens a few days after that.

It is an upgrade issue.
Both your log file and your save file show you have OXCE v7.0, which is way too old for XComFiles v2.3.

Update to the latest OXCE v7.5.3; this will remove the obsolete regions from your save and allow you to continue.

Here is a report on a map bug.

Once upon an Alien colony assault in X-COM Files I've seen such a picture: my units see enemies below through a lift tile. Shots could go through while units couldn't. I expect the floor of that lift tile to be solid, non-transparent for projectiles.

OpenXcom Extended v7.4, some saves are attached.

Not sure what to tell you, but whatever the reason is, it's a vanilla thing.

Howdy! Just returned after 1+year  :P
Here's an error about REGION_CHEMTRAILS not found. Attaching log and a save file (will crash in a while)

Also, I tried to play a new run (this save file is something I'm pulling since 0.8.4!) and found lots of missing string references. I'm going to post a new log soon
ADD: hmm and now strangely I don't have that bunch of missing references. In a new run, though, I got the         [WARN] STR_EXALT_ZSRR_DESCRIPTION not found in en-US

Thanks, Meridian.

@osd_daedalus: Thanks for notifying me about STR_EXALT_ZSRR_DESCRIPTION, it was an actual bug.

I told you I'm pulling things from long time ago... I still was in the oxce-plus branch  ;D
Thank you, just did checkout to master branch.

OK, here's another. Not sure if valid because I am quite mashing things up a bit...
So, recompiled OXCE, and now I have this (did git reset --hard either on OXCE and XCF folders):

[redacted]
EDIT: I AM STUPID, did a lot of mashing, then decided to clone again the repo and cloned up OXC instead of OXCE!

Bug to report: Giant Spider nest underground. A large chunk of the map is inaccessible, making it impossible to complete the mission. Save attatched.

While this map is particularly convoluted, I can't see any inaccessible parts. Can you please be more specific?

I can't find a way down, it could be that I'm just blind but I'm stuck on the level directly below the entrance. The only exposed part of the level below doesn't allow me to drop units into it, and I can't find any stairs or ramps.

Edit: Checked as many corners as I could and didn't find anything.

Edit 2: Turned on debug mode, screenshot attached.
