[V 17.6 Black Combat background.]

I updated and am running 17.6 with no issues until I attempt to attack a downed UFO. The aliens are visible when in range but I cannot see anything in the screen except the armored car and the people and aliens. I can't even tell where the edges of the map are at. WIn XP SP3 with a INtel core 2 Dou and an ATI 5770 video card. I deleted all my old save files and tried again but got this result every time I tried ground combat. \Night or day cambat is the same.

[Armed civilians?]

I really dislike the fact that they are even worse shots than my rookies on their first mission. The way they shoot in the general direction of the aliens means they are shooting towards me...but they hit me more often than they hit the aliens.

[[Ver 17.1 BAse/Geoscape] Cannot see troops in 2nd Chinook but can send on missions]

At my second base, I have 12 soldiers, 8 assigned with a Hunter to the chinook. When they are sent for basic training, you cannot see them but they are still assigned and will go on a mission if selected.

So if they have the wrong or no weapons, that is what they will deploy with.

[[V17.1 Ground combat] Crunching sound on mission start]

I get it on almost every mission with the farm map. I will look to see if I hear it on other missions.

[[V17.1 Buy a Hunter CTD]]

It seems that whenever I send my first Mig 32 and the Hunter from base 1 to my 2nd base, the transport comes under attack from multiple groups of fighters and gets shot down. At least 2/3rds of the time. (I have versions running in Linux Mint, XP and Windows 7). So since I didn't see those listed in my scan of old bugs I posted. The workarounds are great but if we forget that it is a bug, it could fall through the cracks in later bug fixes.

[[v17.1 geoscape] freeze on reload when there are alien hevy fighters present]

On my XP version, I get a CTD if I try to load any save with alien craft flying anywhere in the geoscape. In Windows 7 pro, 64 bit I can load a save game with aircraft and aliens flying. Are you using XP or WIn 7?

[[V17.1 Buy a Hunter CTD]]

Bug occurs in both Windows 7 64 bit and XP. W7 is much more stable overall but this bug happens in both.

[v 17.1 - can't load a game]

I think I have a Chinook en route but no transports when I get this error when I try to load a save.

I even rebooted my system to make sure it wasn't another process interfering.

[[V17.1 Can't load 2nd Chinook]]

The new chopper worked but I wish I still had the money. Terror when they have fighters in the area suck. They even shot down a transfer aircraft that had a Mig in it.

[[V17.1 Can't load 2nd Chinook]]

I unloaded the one guy and fired the chopper before ordering a new one. I keep getting CTD when I am doing intercepts so I have not gotten my new Chinook yet to see if that works.

[[V17.1 Buy a Hunter CTD]]

I bought a 3rd Hunter at my first base but when I go to the Geoscape directly from the vehicles tab I CTD. 4 times in a row since my initial post here.

[[V17.1 Buy a Hunter CTD]]

When I had a garage available at my 2nd base, i tried to purchase a new one two different times and both times I had a crash to desktop.

[[V17.1 Can't load 2nd Chinook]]

Here is how it is grayed out for everyone else at this base.

[[V12] Targeting bug.]

Press B.

Ok, Why? DOes that clear the mode? And where did you find this info?

Thanks Buzzles

[[V17.1 Can't load 2nd Chinook]]

After building my 2nd base, I could not hire at the 2nd base so I bought a second Chinook and transferred it and 7 Soldiers to my new base after quarters and hangers were ready. I can load only one soldier into the Chinook and then the choice of Chinook 6 is grayed out for everyone else.

When I look at the Chinook under the Aircraft tab it shows my one lonely guy in there. Have had to reload a few times but still cannot load chopper. After 1st month over I could recruit more sosldiers and scientists at the 2nd base. Previously I could not.

For an Alpha it is pretty good but I want to send my guys at base 2 on a mission also.

[V 17.1 Invisible civilians and security forces]

After shootdown of any scout craft, had the civilians running around but they are invisible about 2/3s of the time. They are occasionally visible, but I nearly killed one when I rocketed a nearby alien. They still shoot, but they get in front of my bullets. They are shown by a slightly grayed out cicle. (looks like a buried zergling but not that dark.)

[[V12] Targeting bug.]

V 17.1 Stuck in MG mode when I switched to M-16 gunner. He could only fire a burst when I wanted him to throw a grenade. Could not get away from the MG burst symbol until I had M-16 gunner fire a burst. (which I could never do before but could after I equipped a machine gunner. Similar to Dekamme's experience.

[[V12] Hiring Soldiers]

Still exists in 17.1 Then after CTD and reloading I can get new Soldiers at my 2nd base. I just can't assign my transfers to my 2nd Chinook.

[17.1 Bugs. CTD and can't get out of Chopper!]

Same thing happened to me today. Here it is.

[[v17 Aftermission complete screen shot}]

Killed 3 aliens in a small early September. Got a plus 1billion score.
