  1. A guess, but this seems like you have overwritten some of your vanilla game files with something from a mod which has affected mapping elements.

    I'm sure that's it! I recall now, that I had trouble installing Skitso's maps...didn't understand the instructions, and attempted to unzip it directly into the assets/tiles folders. That failed, and I ended up installing it (again) in its own sub-directory. So I'll try to do another install, then copy/replace the assets/tiles folders over to old install (don't want to lose my saved game).

    Thanks!

  2. Kabill is probably right. My maps shouldn't have any black tiles.

    I don't presume to understand how these mods work, but I used Stinky's maps for many missions and they had no black tiles, and they're not even loaded in this new game I've started. The only mod I have active is Skitso's. So do I need to actually delete Stinky's maps? Could they be conflicting even though they're not loaded in this game?

    Also I've noted not only black tiles, but some obstacles that affect movement but do not appear visually. I assume its the same issue as the black tiles.

  3. I've installed Stinky maps with ease. They're .zip files. I can't seem to get this mods .rar to install. I'm on Windows 8.1. When I click on the downloaded .rar it unzips into the xenonauts directory, so now I see Skitsos Ultimate.... folder right in there with /assets and /extras and GCLevelEditor, etc. Now when I start the game, the 'load mod' pulldown still shows the Stinky map packs, but not Skitso's. If I click 'install new mod', I see the unzipped Skitso's folder, along with the zipped versions of Stinky Maps. If I click the unzipped Skitso folder I simply drill down into its component folders. No way to install it here. I even moved the downloaded .rar file into the Xenonauts directory, but again when I click 'install new mod' I don't see the .rar... I only see the unzipped version of it.

    What am I doing wrong?

  4. While this must have been a non-issue for most, I couldn't get the game properly installed. I did a full download of the zipped version, and after unzipping to a folder on my desktop (XP SP3), I made a shortcut to the exe file, clicked, and the launcher window opens with the following error ...

    Can't load image from file 'assets/launcher/play-button.png': file does not exist.

    In looking through the folder where I installed the game, I don't see any subfolders at all... no 'assets', no 'launcher' folders. So I'm guessing I didn't install properly. Are there installation instructions around somewhere?
