Heya, I downloaded the Beta and tried to start a new game, but it crashed when i clicked on the green confirmation arrow on the briefing screen for the first mission. It did that every time I tried.

After a few tries I opened the map editor and attempted to load some maps, but it also crashed when I opened any of the 3 maps there. The map editor also crashed when I tried to place objects, I could create sectors and place Cargo Trucks though. Of course I didn't try all objects, but it definately crashed when placing Dark Jets, Cargo Helicopters and Humvees.

This happens on some PCs when lights are drawn (no idea why). You should be able to workaround this by going into the options and turning off light sourcing (it wont look as nice though).

Are you guys running anything non mainstream like an unusual version of Windows or and older PC etc?

James.

The game worked after I turned the light sourcing off, but then it still crashed once I reached that cargo truck. Of course, this could also be a different bug.

I replayed the mission with the debug version, here's the end of the log output before the game crashes at the parking lot (I really don't want to mail a 29 MB file):
