I hope this was not posted already, but when I try and start a skirmish, the game just closes on the load screen. I tried removing the expandmd files temporarily and other RS files I could find, but the same thing.

Thanks for your time.

NP SE installed?

And which sides are selected?

This is far from a known issue but we will find the issue

Did you change the map to an FC one?

This is the problem if you have something random, simply don't set anything random.

I think this issue is NPatch related.

Just tried a two player FC map as UF vs coorp. No randoms at all, and still the same thing. >_>

Random does not cause any issues for me. Check them all.

I will release a new version today or tomorrow. It will make it possible to play random (thanks goes to tmapm for showing how to though).

If it still persist with the new version I suggest that you attach the except.txt in NPatch forums

[FoRSAkeN_oNe]

Where is the except.txt at? No random is on.

[OmegaBolt]

YR directory.

[FoRSAkeN_oNe]

I asked because except.txt is not in my C:\Westwood\RA2 o_O.

In fact, after doing a search, it apparently is not in my computer period.

Does this happen with YR as well? I mean without any mod?

Which OS do you have? Win 2000 has had reports of NP not working, I do not know about this myself since I do not have that OS...

[FoRSAkeN_oNe]

I use Vista, Robot Storm works, and YR works. Lastly, Yuri's Revenge and the RS launcher freeze when I go to exit the game. My thought is maybe since YR and the RS launcher freeze as I close RS, it is leaving trace elements.

Perhaps you should check your RA2/YR directory and check none of following mix files are present

ecachemd97.mix, expandmd97.mix, ecachemd98.mix, expandmd98.mix, expandmd99.mix

if are, delete and try again..if still no luck, you should use marshall's cleaner to clean whole dir of all possible mod contents, just don't ever delete expandmd01.mix tho.

as last resort, you could try different NPatch, RP versions if it makes a difference while obvious feature losses possible.

So I went and did that on my vista AND XP system... but to no avail. The same thing happens. The skirmish loads about 20% or so, then crashes.

[FoRSAkeN_oNe]

Got the mod working. Had to install NPatch. ;>_>

I like Coorp.
