Patch v1.2 causes game to crash on loading screens
Hey,
I bought my copy of Star Wolves 3: Civil War from Amazon Game Downloads. To my knowledge, my copy is unprotected. After applying the 1.2 patch available from your website, the game crashes with a C++ Run-time error when loading a level. I have already reinstalled all C++ Redistributables on my computer, but the issue remains. Please help.

Does it happen when loading a saved game? How about starting a new game?

**EDIT** I've just confirmed that the C++ Run-time error occurs when loading a saved game as well as when starting a new game or when starting the tutorial. I've attached the logfile that was created when attempting to load a saved game. Last edited by subsider34; 10-31-2011 at 09:09 PM.

Hmm... I've got the same error. There is something wrong with patched files. New "exe" works with original version of the game so I think the problem is somewhere inside "improved" scripts. If I find a solution I'll let you know.

I think problems solved. After applying 1.12 patch, copy zip archive you'll find as attachment to the game directory and unzip. Choose "Yes to all".
If you encounter any other errors let me know. What's wrong? Devs decoded all dialogs files to normal txt version but forgot to change FILETYPE header (DYNAMIC to STANDART). What it means? It means that final version of the patch wasn't tested even ONCE !!! ---- EDIT ---- New version of the fix - 4 posts below. Last edited by Goblin Wizard; 11-01-2011 at 09:31 PM.

***EDIT*** Hey, Since installing the fix I've noticed that there are a LOT of missing dialog strings (everything from the common pirate demands to mission descriptions (particularly after saving Terrie)). Attached, you'll find a savegame right before issues start showing up. Go through the portal to X-23 and try moving the Mothership to a portal or station.

Thx for the save, very helpful. Unfortunately, I can't do much to fix it. It's old bug with STANDART filetype header. It works like 95% of time but sometime fails from unknown reasons. In this case game engine stops to see dialog lines just in the middle of the conversation though everything is ok. If you change new dialog file with old one you can see whole conversation without problems.

The new version of fix has no folder structure in it. If following these instructions all the folders would be unzipped into the main game directory. It looks like the zip contains the folders of the GameDirectory\Data\LocData\English so you would need to copy them from the zip to this directory and overwrite instead of the game directory. Correct? (This is a year old thread but figured I'd clear up the directions for people still needing the file.)

Ok I bought the game yesterday off steam and I think this may be a glitch. I've been doing the quests and there was one where I am to deliver a package for the USS corporation. However their escort was taken over by pirates and I have to fight them, (with the help of mercs hired beforehand).
Now on my way to deliver the goods to the USS, they want to know what happened, so I take them to the battleground and they get their escort's black boxes. They ask me to find the pirate base which is nearby however once found a swarm of pirates emerge and proceed to kill my team (its 5 to one). Ternie says something about bringing in the cavalry however there are no cavalry to be had. If you move your entire team to search for the pirates there is no rescue from USS forces, if you leave a fighter behind to see what they do, they simple disappear when you discover the pirate base, if you try going back through the gate to where the USS guys came from they claim you tried to cheat them and blow you up automatically... I sincerely hope that the developers don't expect me to take on 5 times the amount of pirates so early in the game (this is like my 5th mission), if not then what am I doing wrong? (I have no idea since I've tried everything I could, even tried to sweep the area before I lose the merc guys). Overall I'm a tad annoyed about this.
