Long War Crashes at start of EXALT mission

[LordAbizi]

I started a long war game and I have a covert extraction mission. After the cutscene in the skyranger I hit launch mission, the game shows me the map for like half a second and then the game commits suicide. I know that there was a bug with some config files with patch_liqourestore or something, but it seems that this is not the issue here as it seems to be written correctly in my config files. (I'm not even sure that the map is in fact this liquore store, I don't know the maps that well)

 

Any suggestions?

Standard boilerplate LW response follows:

Long War bug reports should be checked first in the "Long War" download page "forum section" before posting to ensure a response. (The LW Team has stated they don't check the main forum at all anymore for problems. Really, the dev team is the most likely to be able to help with a LW issue but anyone else who can also will be there.) You may also find that the answer is already known and posted in those sections.

Check that you have Steam in "offline" mode.

Review the "checklist" in the "Basic Guide" (see below).

Disable your Anti-Virus while installing.

Be sure to read the "Readme" and "Detailed Troubleshooting" documents included with the LW download before reporting bugs. They need all the information requested there (including which OS platform: Windows, Linux, OS/X, ARM/IOS, etc.) to be able to help. If they can't reproduce the problem, they can't fix it. You increase your odds of getting help by re-reading included documentation and following instructions on reporting bugs, and then documenting what you have already tried ... in detail. Short "it's broke" reports simply generate requests for more detail; wasting time. Better too much detail than not enough. (Remember: This is all volunteer support, including the LW dev team. If you won't put in the effort to provide a good bug description, why should they spend time prying it out of you if it sounds vague enough to likely be something covered already?)

While the LW installer handles any code modifications for you, it is still necessary to prepare your system for mods as laid out in the wiki article "Basic Guide to installing mods". The "Environment" section in particular still applies to LW, and the "OS/X mod installation" section has specifics for Mac versions. There is also a "Linux Differences" section.

The first recommended fix is always to upgrade to the latest version (currently 1.0). Be sure to check the release notes for the effect upon a saved game.
