That's right. All missions (well, M01, as i can't get to any others without doing M01) crash Renegade to desktop without warning.

The intro movie to MX0 (the first one (Scorpion Hunters)), MX0.mix, and the into movie to M01 work okay, however before it even attempts to load the map, it crashes to desktop.

Anyone have any idea as to why?

Have you tried it without the scripts? Renaming scripts2.dll scripts.dll and naming scripts.dll scripts2.dll

Are you getting a crashdump?

You pretty much have to do this.

How come the first one works then? I'll try that

And I'll check for a crashdump too.

Depends what scripts u use. If u use scripts 3+ then there's a bit more file to rename/delete.

You can find me in The KOSs2 (TK2) discord while I'm playing. Feel free to come and say hi! TK2 discord

I don't like Scripts 3+, i stick with ones that work, so it's 2.9.2 for me.

It has, thank you Lonewolf.

But why do scripts 2.9.2 not work with the missions? I thought Jonwil just added to it, not took critical parts away?

Bah, 30 second load times suck, but it's real fun getting back to the missions. ^_^

All my missions(at least all that I have played so far) work with scripts 3.4.4 I think it is other than the often random crash there seems to be no problems.

It's some bug that jonwil never fixed. Just use stock scripts.
