Never before seen bug

HEMISENT · 05-17-09, 09:40 PM

This is a new one for me and I'm wondering if anybody else has had this happen. I'm still testing certain mods with GWX 3.0 to find the right mix that works for me. I have GWX 3.0 along with a host of mods that worked perfectly with the previous versions. The only new ones I'm trying are RB's SH4 effects and the Lifeboat and Debris mod.

The scenario has happened twice now in two separate campaign missions.

Running on the surface I sighted a small freighter, my stealth meter lit up showing red meaning he saw me also, ship began zig-zagging. All standard so far. Up to and during the attack the meter stayed red. Normally, at the time the ship is destroyed message comes up the meter goes green and all goes back to normal. This time the meter stayed red and never went out. I saved/exited the game after some time.

Now I go to relaunch with Commander, the game loads normally but at the point where the "Not so long ago" script shows and the mission actually starts to become visible on the screen the game crashes to black. I have to control/alt/delete to get out of it.

I have to go back to the previous save prior to the sighting of that particular ship to get back into the game. This seems to happen only with certain types of ships. And does not occur with each ship encountered. I have noticed that so far it's happened with two new ship types that I don't recall seeing in the past versions.

I realize that with my game heavily modded it's probably like trying to find a needle in a haystack but I'm just looking for clues first before I go disabling mods.
