I have tried the "Rescue Uncle Antan" mission twice now, and it crashed after I destroyed the VSD (both times). Does that mission require the VSD to survive for some reason?
I had destroyed a VSD in an earlier mission without any problems, so I don't believe it's a hardware/software issue.

Is it VSD Condemnation? Because that's a bonus to be destroyed.shully wrote: ↑Sun Oct 31, 2021 8:36 pmI have tried the "Rescue Uncle Antan" mission twice now, and it crashed after I destroyed the VSD (both times). Does that mission require the VSD to survive for some reason?

I'm not aware of any issues with this mission or more would report it.
Make sure in Video Options - Hardware - that MipMapping is turned on. Check all the options.
Also blow one up in a Skirmish. Just make it stationary and see if the same happens

Problem solved. I somehow got through the mission a third time, and no crash. But later the game crashed when a platform blew up. I widened my Forum search and found the answer here:

I just needed to turn Hardware mipmapping 'on'

Glad you were able to fix the issue, yeah MIP mapping is a bit of a weird one. The installer should force it to on, but it seems in some rare cases it doesn't do that.shully wrote: ↑Wed Nov 03, 2021 10:42 amProblem solved.
