Thanks all, I extracted part 1 of the 3 part rar file once again and to my surprise X Division commenced installing. I now have X-Division running. DavidR

Charon,, I installed as per the instructions 1) clean install of Xenonauts 2) added CE mod , updated to current version 3) Downloaded the 3 part X-Division rar files 4) opened Part 1 and double clicked. 5) Received the opening screen for X division and clicked next 6) the 3 check boxes appear and I check each one then click next. 7) immediately after this a windowed box appears stating that X-Division setup has stopped working and I am unable to proceed any further. Cannot understand why I can do exactly the same thing on my laptops and X-Division installs , but not on my desktop. DavidR

Khaad, Thanks , but I have tried that with the same result - a popup box stating that X-Division setup has stopped working. DavidR

I have 3 computers ( 2 laptops and a desktop ) , all running Windows 10 build 1703. I had no problem in loading X-Division 099.41 Beta on top of X-CE 0.034.3 on my laptops and the programme runs ok. However when I try to install X-Division on my desktop , as soon as I try to load part 1 of the 3 rar files I get a warning box appearing stating " X-Division Setup has stopped working" and the accompanying explanation states that a problem caused the program to stop working correctly.I cannot proceed any further with the setup. I have tried numerous times totally uninstalling Xenonauts and re-installing from scratch but cannot load X-Division on my main computer. Has anyone had a similar problem or can offer any sort of solution I could try. DavidR .

Charon , Thanks for your reply. For some reason clicking underneath the medals on the roster screen had no effect whatsoever and my original soldiers were doomed to be assigned to the dropship until ( i presume ) killed. For this reason i have had to uninstall Xenonauts from my Steam folder and re-install from scratch. My first attempt at this resulted in the game crashing every time I clicked on the base soldier equipment screen with the message " xenonauts has caused windows to stop working ..." ( or similar ) so a further uninstall and re-install was required.. I tried following your mod list and mod order to the letter but I got messages about X-ce not working due to required mods not in correct order or not active ( " The Xenonauts Community Edition Mods are either not active or they do not have the recommended mod Priority. Do you want to fix this automatically ? " ) Clicking NO lock the computer forcing a reboot , clicking YES results in the mod list and order as shown in the attachments. i think that I now have another working X-Division game and the soldier screen seems to allow me to assign and un-assign soldiers ( at least at the commencement of the game ). I have to attempt a session with missions to investigate if the game is stable or still prone to crashing. PS Why however do I get messages re the X-CE not working if I follow your mod list ?

Apologies if this seems a stupid question but how does one swap soldiers in and out of the dropship on the base roster screen. I have 2 soldiers wounded which I believe that I cannot remove from the dropship allocation ( although this seems daft to me ) but I have 2 unallocated soldiers that I want to have mission experience. However no matter what I do or where I click on the roster screen I cannot swap 2 healthy allocated solders for the 2 unallocated ones . What do I have to do ? Many Thanks DavidRuss PS by the way I am getting random game lockups when playing ( even CTL+ALT+DELETE is locked up ) and the only way around is to reboot the computer thereby losing any unsaved moves. My loaded mods are as attached - is there anything that could cause the game to suddenly lock up?
