Chris Posted January 4, 2013 Posted January 4, 2013 OK, we've just patched the Ferret-driving-through-the-wall crash bug and are updating the Desura auto-updater branches with V17.51. Dunno how long Desura will take to approve it, but I'm not uploading the standalones until I've confirmed it's fixed The update contains only a patched Xenonauts.exe, which can be downloaded direct here: http://www.xenonauts.com/devfiles/Xenonauts.exe Let me know how stable the game is with the update. The save game crash etc has not been patched, just the destruction of terrain crash. Quote
Steelpoint Posted January 4, 2013 Posted January 4, 2013 I can confirm that, with the standalone that is, the game no longer crashes when I run over wall's. Quote
Chris Posted January 4, 2013 Author Posted January 4, 2013 Cool. But are there any other major new crashes that arise from using it? Quote
Steelpoint Posted January 4, 2013 Posted January 4, 2013 (edited) I tried blowing up multiple wall sections, shot my own man by accident and ran over every wall around. Nothing there. However! When I assaulted the Small Scout which had two Ceasans in it, both seemingly unarmed, I shot one with a shotgun which suppressed the other one. I ended my turn and the game froze , It remains fixated on that Ceasan who is not doing anything, though I can still move my mouse, it won't let me go to the main menu or any other command. Should also note that the FPS counter is still ticking. This is on the new Farm map. Other things. - UFO's are not showing, replaced by dirt. - When I opened the UFO door with my soldier, her weapon was destroyed leaving some scrap in her inventory. *EDIT * After replaying the same level something interesting happened. I shot a Ceasan with a precision rifle only to have the game crash. *EDIT 2* I tested the precision rifles again, I shot a wall, a soldier and a Sebillian and nothing happened. Either the crash was coincidence or it was because it was a Ceasan. Edited January 4, 2013 by Steelpoint Quote
Chris Posted January 4, 2013 Author Posted January 4, 2013 Mmm. Still doesn't sound great then.. Quote

centiles Posted January 6, 2013 Posted January 6, 2013 Game still crashes when loading a ground combat savegame. Quote
Chris Posted January 6, 2013 Author Posted January 6, 2013 The save game crash etc has not been patched, just the destruction of terrain crash. Almost like it's not meant to be, Centiles Quote
FranTorres Posted January 6, 2013 Posted January 6, 2013 Dirt UFO happens to me as well... I wonder how do they entry the planet... ooh science you scare me sometimes. Quote
Avid Posted January 7, 2013 Posted January 7, 2013 Game crashes on almost every second to third ground mission Quote
centiles Posted January 7, 2013 Posted January 7, 2013 (edited) Almost like it's not meant to be, Centiles Well I'm still working at my reading skills Civilians in ground combat seem kind of broken. Sometimes they suddenly disappear or get invisible. BTW I've got the same problem in XCOM:EU, where aliens suddenly get invisible. I've also seen civilians kind of teleporting from A to B where "A is far from B". Edited January 7, 2013 by centiles Quote
Chris Posted January 7, 2013 Author Posted January 7, 2013 We're going to release another fix in the next few days that hopefully fixes most of the crash bugs. Quote
DonStealth Posted January 7, 2013 Posted January 7, 2013 Take your time... I'd rather wait a few days longer than have too many crashes =) Quote
hdewulf Posted January 10, 2013 Posted January 10, 2013 Can drive through walls now. Fabbo. Can't jump over them anymore though :-( Don't use the ground vehicles at all though because so many "Hidden Movement" hangs when they are there. But 17.51 seems more stable if the vehicle isn't used. Quote
alcari Posted January 10, 2013 Posted January 10, 2013 We're going to release another fix in the next few days that hopefully fixes most of the crash bugs. Wooo Will it help with some of the broken savegames? It's slightly annoying to have to do a mental checklist of things that will break the save, every time I hit the save button Quote
Wiltdog Posted January 18, 2013 Posted January 18, 2013 Thank you very much for the patch. =) What patch? Am I missing something here?! Keep us posted please Chris. Thank you! I know you don't have to but its greatly appreciated. Quote
