  1. I'm using Windows 7. I had loaded X:CE 0.26 (and settings mod) a couple weeks ago into my existing game using the mods menu in the loader. It was working fine with no issues. Wonderful! I decided to try out 0.27. Now I can't get either 0.26 or 0.27 to work. I know it must be something I'm doing wrong. I have started with a brand new image of the 1.09 game several times. The new image comes up and plays just fine. So I load the X:CE mod. I see the new xce directory in the mods directory. I quit the loader and move the xenonauts.exe up to the top directory and replace the original. I run the loader and see that the new X:CE version (either 0.26 or 0.27, I have tried both) is listed at the top of the loader screen. Then I click play. After a short bit, before any visual game image or music shows up, it quits to the desktop with the message "Xenonauts.exe has stopped working". I figure this is just something I'm doing wrong but now I can't play using X:CE and I'm really bummed. Thanks for any suggestions you may have. BTW, I did try turning off my anti-virus but never had issues with this before.
  2. I have installed CE version .26 using the modding install mechanism. All is working fine. I am interested in using the Fire in the hole mod. Can I load it using the same modding install I used for CE or do I need to overwrite the assets dir? What if I later upgrade to CE .27, it it compatible? I want to know the best, most compatible way to add this mod. Great game so far, better than original X-COM in some ways. These mods/maps are wonderful, keep up the good work guys! Steve
  3. Thanks for the replies. I installed it by over-writing since I read it would be more compatible with some of the other patches. However, when I installed version 0.26 using the "Modding Tools" submenu, it seems to work fine. Do you think version 0.27 is stable such that it will also work OK if installed properly?
  4. I'm new to the forum. I have version 1.09. Loaded XCE 0.27 (and xcesettings and Skitsos map pak 2000 v1.1) by overwriting all files when extracting into the /assets subdir. I start a new game but when it asks me to make the first base, before I can try, it says I don't have enough funds. My funds say 1 million. What am I doing wrong? Thanks for any help. Long time X-COM player, love the game so far! Also, any way to preserve my saved games; can I use them with XCE 0.27 mod? Right now, after loading XCE 0.27, my soldiers don't show up on the "Manage Soldiers" panel, and sometimes it crashes to the desktop when I click on the empty "Manage Soldiers" panel. Is this a saved game incompatibility? -steves
