lensmanx Posted December 26, 2011 Share Posted December 26, 2011 Trying various things to avoid the game hanging on what would have been the last "hidden movement" screen before winning a ground combat. Could it be because I'm using Windows XP SP2? SP3 doesn't get along with my video card, but maybe I should upgrade to keep testing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sathra Posted December 27, 2011 Share Posted December 27, 2011 So the game hangs after you press 'end turn' after killing the 7th alien? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lensmanx Posted December 28, 2011 Author Share Posted December 28, 2011 So the game hangs after you press 'end turn' after killing the 7th alien? Yep. And I checked -- it does the same on Windows 7. This isn't a "sometimes" error -- it's after every ground combat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lurker Posted December 29, 2011 Share Posted December 29, 2011 I have the same issue, either with killing the last alien or holding the UFO for 5 turns. Goes to Hidden Movement screen and game stops responding. This happens in play and debug mode, running on Win 7. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anotherdevil Posted December 29, 2011 Share Posted December 29, 2011 Yeah I've already posted this bug. Another thread I started has a save game on it that works if you want to try researching etc. Haven't tried finishing another ground combat mission from that save, but I assume it wont work. At least it lets you try more geoscape stuff however Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shrelock Posted December 29, 2011 Share Posted December 29, 2011 Was just about to report this bug I've had it since v8.2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imperialus Posted December 29, 2011 Share Posted December 29, 2011 Ditto here. Running Windows XP SP3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justpassingby Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 I installed the game three times, each time running into the same problem that the others (and a few other that changed with each install), either in play or debug mode, always version 8.5, 1280X1024 resolution Anyway, at the third install, I tried debug mode at a different resolution (1280X720), and I managed to finish the ground combat! Tried to this in other resolutions and it didn't work. I would like to ask if it happens to someone else, please try it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lurker Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 Tried in game mode at 1280x720 and got to win screen, this seems to work. Not tried the other resolutions but would usually use 1280x1024. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MerzZz Posted January 7, 2012 Share Posted January 7, 2012 (edited) Same for me - 1280x1024 is glitched somehow. V 8.6. Edited January 7, 2012 by MerzZz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
