Odd (and annoying as hell) crash
Posted: Fri Feb 09, 2018 3:09 pm
Using the GoG version, Windows 10, the game runs when installed, however after installing either the XWAUCP 1.5 or DSUCP 2.5 packs the game crashes on launch with the ever helpful "X Wing Alliance has stopped working" error message... digging in the event log turns up this gibberish:
Faulting application name: XWingAlliance.exe, version: 2.0.0.2, time stamp: 0x3765a9b7
Faulting module name: XWingAlliance.exe, version: 2.0.0.2, time stamp: 0x3765a9b7

Gives the same exception and offset codes with either craft pack, tried both the current GoG version: x-wing_alliance_2.02_(18061), and an older version xwing_alliance_2.0.0.9 dated from 2015, same error; tried rebooting, compatibility mode, running as an admin, but no joy... any ideas?
EDIT: Dug out my old XWA CDs and installed that version.. what a pain.. and it still doesn't work with the packs, same error *headdesk*
