landlord Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 I started this game in V1.07, and got to the point where I could build Valkyrie dropships. I built the Valkyrie and attempted to assault a crashed UFO. When the Ground Combat loading screen reaches 10% the game freezes and must be killed with Task Manager. I tried again with V1.08, and no difference. With V1.08HF, now the game immediately crashes to desktop when the ground combat loading screen reaches 10%. Please find the associated save file attached. Thanks. Geoscape.sav Geoscape.sav Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Posted July 19, 2014 Share Posted July 19, 2014 Sorry for taking a few days to reply. These load fine for me in V1.07 HF and V1.08 HF. Please try validating your files or removing any mods you've got installed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PostmanPat Posted August 2, 2014 Share Posted August 2, 2014 I appear to have the same problem. Using a Valkyrie Dropship for the first time and every crash site I send it to, the ground combat will start loading and then freeze at about 15%. I have tried both validating the game files and a fresh install using the latest version, neither make a difference. [ATTACH]5156[/ATTACH] Thanks.

Chris Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 Weird. Can you try going into the game directory and manually deleting the /tiles/ and /units/ directory (i.e. don't do that via Steam), then revalidating the files again on Steam? It's possible that might help. Deleting the game via Steam doesn't remove non-game files from the directory that might be somehow corrupting the load process.

PostmanPat Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 Hi Chris I've tried out as you suggested, namely deleting the /tiles/ and /units/ from the assets directory and then using the steam validate to reload the files. However the problem persists. I'll try the save on another machine when I get the chance as well update my graphics drivers as I've noticed a graphical animation glitch for certain Sebilian type when using this machine.

PostmanPat Posted August 6, 2014 Share Posted August 6, 2014 I can confirm that the saved works on a different PC, so the problem is specific to this machine - which is unfortunate. The updated graphics drivers had no effect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 Argh. These kind of issues are really annoying because it's basically impossible for us to debug them, since it only occurs on a few machines and we don't have access to any of them. If you do work out what is causing it then please do let us know. I wonder if it's to do with the Valkyrie drop pod images? Try deleting the four "valkyrie" files in the /units/ directory and see if it loads then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vjman Posted August 24, 2014 Share Posted August 24, 2014 I have the same problem but I ma on 1.09. Uninstalled the game and reinstalled it from Steam but the issue persists. [ATTACH]5405[/ATTACH] po misji 5.sav po misji 5.sav Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arturius Posted September 2, 2014 Share Posted September 2, 2014 (edited) I had the exact same problem as landlord but managed to find a solution The cause of the problem was missing "valkyrie" folder in /assets/tiles/dropships - and validating files could not help with this to fix this problem please use this Valkyrie Drop-Ship Fix by kabill http://www.goldhawkinteractive.com/forums/showthread.php/11599-Any-Version-Valkyrie-Drop-Ship-Fix Edit: My game version is 1.09 on Desura Edited September 2, 2014 by Arturius added my game version Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kabill Posted September 2, 2014 Share Posted September 2, 2014 Alternatively, using the community edition mod will probably fix it too since that also replaces the Valkyrie submaps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
