Refreshed my config file then droped everything to minimal with no change. If needed I'll backtrack to a good revision and post when the no-go happened. I can post dxdiag if needed too, but I doubt hardware is involved.

move or symlink the config directory to "data/.vegastrike"?

Well, that did not work. I've been kind of waiting for some of the new features to get worked in, so it's far from critical, but I doubt I'm the only one with this issue.

Did you try the older binary?
I don't remember any incompatibility with older binaries. There are bugfixes you'd miss, but it should mostly work.
If it does, at least it would point where the fault is (ie: not the dataset).
Also, make sure you have the corresponding data revision, because there have been many data changes in those revisions.

wait, it says "Attempt to call ReadFull on a bad file units.csv -1 C:\Program Files\Vega Strike\Desktopvsnew\data/units/units.csv" after it found "main_menu.mission"?.. maybe, really something with units.csv?
I don't remember how fallbacks normally look in the log under windoze, though.

There was a crashing bug with that message, but I think it has been fixed.
Maybe not in windows?

I grab data sets at the same time as everything else. Just let SVN do it's thing on the whole folder. If it isn't sorted out soon, I'll start steping back to find the problem area.

Not finding a good point, but my blind stabing may have found something. When where cube maps "fixed" last? It seems to hang when loading black_light.cube
I'd like to save on my bandwidth and only role back what is needed so revision number and folder if you have a point for me to test please.

Not sure what you mean by

here (you have the arrows for moving back and forth)

the bug is somewhere in data\techniques

a work around is to downgrade data\techniques to revision 13295

That's right, I forgot, the change in revision 13296 requires a new binary.
Reverting techniques works fine as a workaround until someone builds a new binary.

I see Beta 2 is "out the door", do we have an ETA on the new Windows binary/.exe to see if that fixes my issue? Still trying to get a Linux Destro on my USB drive to remain stable and have enough room to install VS... maybe I need a 16 GB one.

log0 commited an updated binary to SVN, it should work with the released dataset.
Did you try? (I'd be interested to know if it works)
Last windows installer release was made by pheonixstorm, IIRC, so we depend on him to do it this time as well.

Updated to latest Windows SVN, I dont get the C error, but it now dies (Still before bringing up the menue) about where it loads shield.bump At least that's what I think it says.

Interesting. It runs for me on two different machines, but both have got win7. I assume you are pulling vegastrike/trunk/win32 not only the exe? Have you tried reseting the config, disabling sounds maybe?

There's nothing in the output that would indicate why it crashed.
I think we'll need a debugger.

Did some digging, knew I saw it in a post, do I correctly assume that all I need to do is change the command in my link to ...vegastrike.exe-debug=3 ?

vegastrie <space> -debug=3
But no, by "a debugger" I meant a debugger like OllyDbg or Visual Studio. Or something like that.
BTW, Are you sure it's not the infamous openal issue?

Well, it was working fine a few months ago.... Guess I can try to update it (OpenAL).
Log0:
Yes, I am updating everything at once. I have not killed sound, but I have tried other config options. And I hear the music just fine.

You know, this does sound like an assertion failure or uncaught exception.
When you have the development libraries (MSVC) installed, it pops a nice dialog box telling you what happened, but I've seen it die silently in non-devel rigs.
So a debugger would shed a truckload of light into this situation (by showing what broke).
It remains on the to-do list to make VS itself print this out before aborting. It wasn't as easy as I hoped last time I tried.

Well, I just grabbed OllyDbg 1.10. Some usage guidance to get you the report you need would be nice. Again, not home so it will be some time before I can try.

Just make it break on uncaught exceptions (which should be the default anyway), and run it.
When it dies, take a look at the stack to find out where it broke.
