I downloaded Xenonauts last night (7/19/14) and I loved it for an hour. It's far and away the best XCom around, and I just played a bunch of Firaxis' Enemy Unknown. It was... disappointing. Anyway, the corner text on launch is Xenonauts Release 1.07 25/06/2014 But I get one bug, and it's a big one. I get the white tiles everywhere in ground combat, it's unplayable, and it started with the second crash site. It looks like the other "white tile" posts on the forums. I tested in 64 bit Windows 7 under VMWare emulation on a Retina MacBook Pro. I already play a bunch of games successfully in VMWare in Steam (Railroad Tycoon, Day of Defeat, Shadowrun Returns, Civilization V, GTA:SA), and a bunch of games from GOG (Jagged Alliance 2, Neverwinter Nights, Silent Storm gold) and I've never had a graphical issue! I doubt its the emulation causing this. I've tried restarting from an earlier save many times but when I shoot down and then explore the second UFO crash site there is always this white terrain even in different parts of the world. Some scenery exists, but the ground is always white. I've tried: Alt-TABbing Reloading Full screen and windowed, both the game and VMWare emulation window Higher resolution Lower resolution Quitting the white tile game often gives a C Runtime error window. Sometimes loading the savegame to test gives the same error and a crash. The area in the error window is black so I can't read it. I went back to the first save, the first UFO crash, and it played but now my rocket explosions were a white square expanding and shrinking. And this was a combat I previously played through just fine! I suspected a corrupt download but the MD5 sum is good. Now I'm downloading the Mac WINE wrapped version, maybe it'll play better? Hope you can take care of it it's a great game otherwise and I don't have access to another PC.
