They apparently don't want error reports unless it's a new bug, or you can use http://pastebin.com/ and post a link here, then if they do need/want it, they can just click.

Oathbreaker Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 http://pastebin.com/aaMMxMkN iMac 10.6.8 Was at full time compression going into air combat, music was sped up by the same factor (weird sound!), the combat seemed to go faster as well, won the combat, then froze and ctd. Error report above on pastebin. The game runs jerky when there's several things moving on the Geoscape at once. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

superpirson Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 <facepalm> sorry, moving the assits fixed the crash on startup. I sorta mentally disregarded your posts as irrelevant because there was no clear indicator that you were part of the team. maybe you could make devs names red, or have a different background color so it is easier to differentiate between official responses and problem reports. </facepalm> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maurice Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 See last page this thread. Jup, I did. Game starts (awesome!) but tactical = black screen. got the Xenonauts.2.dmg from desura. (v13.02 i guess?) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oathbreaker Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 New bugs (not freezing/crashing/game breaking): iMac 10.6.8 Cursor almost always stays as an "arrow" (my default computer cursor, I've never changed it) instead of changing to the Xenonauts crosshairs/cube. The two times the cursor DID change, however, where the only two times I've been able to assign scientists or hire personnel iirc. The above issue may or may not have anything to do with this: Air Combat screen - reducing tactical air speed is seemingly impossible sometimes, the reduced speed indicator just jumps back up to full when you try to reduce speed, whether or not you have Afterburners on. Imho reducing speed should auto-turn off Afterburner, but maybe that's a separate issue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NotSure Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 2.5GHz C2D 4GB MBP 10.6.8 Xenonauts.2.dmg After moving asset folder can now load game. Game works until entering tactical combat and then hangs on black screen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oathbreaker Posted August 18, 2012 Share Posted August 18, 2012 (edited) Anyone else not getting the "square crosshairs" cursor when loading the game? I've gotten it maybe twice, and was (iirc) then able to assign scientists and hire personnel. Still hoping for a way to be email-notified when a new Mac game client is released, as the Tactical game is still unaccessible to me. EDIT: Looks like there is a way, just click "Track this game" in the top right of the http://www.desura.com/games/xenonauts page.

ko2fan Posted August 18, 2012 Author Share Posted August 18, 2012 Oathbreaker, I will look into the crosshairs issue. I have fixed the problem with hiring scientists, but it involved removing a check that the window was currently in focus. Could be related issues. Thanks.

Oathbreaker Posted August 19, 2012 Share Posted August 19, 2012 Cheers mate. Any news on the whole getting into Tactical mode freezeup bug? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ko2fan Posted August 19, 2012 Author Share Posted August 19, 2012 The tactical freezing only seems to happen when using the stripped down assets, seems to be missing an asset. This will be fixed in the next version. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oathbreaker Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 Thanks. I really need to kill some aliens since I'm spending hours and hours filling out government paperwork on my time off these days. If I get some time I'll try to see how long I can push the game on Insane without actually going Tactical mode. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolfy Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 (edited) Geoscape is very laggy still, and I have a very fast computer. The air combat is nice and smooth, but I can never even load the ground combat it seems. I'll wait awhile longer to see if it loads it though, then edit this with result. EDIT: Never loaded, just said "Loading... This make take awh-" then before I finished reading it, it black screened.

ko2fan Posted August 22, 2012 Author Share Posted August 22, 2012 I have a new version with working tactical and hiring and assigning scientists working. Just waiting on stripped down assets from Chris. I will look into reducing lag on geoscape but the engine runs pretty slowly at the best of times. I currently get 15 fps on a 2010 mac mini.

ko2fan Posted August 24, 2012 Author Share Posted August 24, 2012 I made some changes to geoscape and now get 21 fps. I will continue to work on improving it. Next version will now be v14. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maurice Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 Any idea when v14 is available? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gorlom Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 In the announcement part of the forum Chris said he as hoping for this weekend I believe. But that isn't over until he goes to bed on sunday (which can stretch into monday). and the Desura guys probably won't upload upload it until sometime on monday (possibly tuesday if there is trouble again).
