Corporate Holdings error

[Sephryn]

After I finish the battle and try to return to Mwari, the game crashes. Any ideas?

No Pity for the Corporations!

Recently started running the game on a Windows 10 system. The mission “Corporate Holdings” crashed over and over shortly after the freighters appeared. Scanned the forum for solutions.

First I changed the buffer settings in flux.ini to
use_w_buffer = 0
use_static_buffers = 1

did not help…

I changed the EdgeOfChaos executable to Win98 compatibility for all users

did not help…

I disabled both sound units (apparently I have two for some reason)
NVIDIA High Definition Audio
and
VIA HD Audio (Win 10)

then the game would not even start…

I enabled only the VIA HD Audio (Win 10) unit (Keeping NVIDIA High Definition Audio disabled)

This enabled me – on my particular system – to complete the mission “Corporate Holdings” without a crash.
Perhaps someone else might find this useful.

What I do is use Massacre mod on the enemies, then formate with the freighters to go out with them. If you destroy the enemies before the crash, then it won’t crash until after the freighters have jumped out. So jump out with them.
This has worked on my current computer, as well as 4 others.

Also, welcome to the forum! o/ Mind the cobwebs…

Very little about the game is not known to me. Any questions you got, throw them at me. 🙂

IronDuke, what does the Massacre mod do? I didn’t find it in the mod list here on the site.

[IronDuke]

You’re right! :blink: It’s not on the site’s main download page. Turns out I got it from the Independent Trading Post: https://www.i-war2.com/oldmainpage/wetwired/ You’ll want to click on Tune Ups.
It kills all red ships within 50km with a single button press. :whistle:
However, they are not added to your kills list.

Since I haven’t yet played that mission, I assume that you are to save the freighters and leave the system after defeating all the enemies?

[IronDuke]

You have to defend a single disabled freighter carrying antimatter.

[spoiler]It has no power for the AM containment field, so you have to supply power to it.[/spoiler]
Multiple waves of a half-dozen or so cutters attack it. Seriously, everyone gets stuck on that mission.

Wow, that’s an atomic bomb from Fallout that must’ve survived! 😀

I will add the mod to the main downloads in a few seconds. Soup must’ve missed the mod back when he was running the website.

Edit: It’s up!

But… but… but… I had forgotten what the “Corporate Holdings” mission was. Upon checking the Docs–>Acts, it says Corporate Holdings is the mission where you have to clear some mines around an L-point, take on a few marauders, and escort some freighters out of the system. The one with the freighter carrying antimatter is called “antimatter cordon”. I have never experienced a crash with the second mission, but had some trouble with the first. I can’t remember exactly what it was though.

[spoiler]Antimatter Cordon was weird. I documented my troubles somewhere else. Without using the docs, I managed to win simply by destroying all of the marauders before the time was up. That’s not supposed to happen.[/spoiler]

Whoops, got which mission we were talking about all confused. Yes, defend the freighters and then jump out.

@Schmatzler I see you added the hellspawn mod as well. I have used this mod, but I had no remote fighter… so I hacked the mod and changed my own ship into the hellspawn. 👿

Yeah, it was also missing in the downloads. Keep looking, maybe there’s more stuff that is buried so deep I missed it 😛

Maybe I don’t see the forest because of all the trees, but where is the Hellspawn mod?
