eric3045 Posted November 21, 2001 Report Share Posted November 21, 2001 I have tried to play as the insurgent career but every time I try to start it the game crashes. It crashes when I leave the station and the game finishes loading. I get the message "Fatal error error opening Sygan/PTYPE014. My system is: Athalon 650mhz Win 98 se. 384 meg ram 64 meg geforce2 mx200 Also I seem to have a problem that whenever I try to shutdown windows after playing I can't. The monitor shuts off, but my cpu fan is still running, and the green light outside my tower remains lit. I have to manually reset to shut down.[ 11-21-2001: Message edited by: eric3045 ][ 11-21-2001: Message edited by: Supreme Cmdr ][ 11-22-2001: Message edited by: Supreme Cmdr ] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supreme Cmdr Posted November 21, 2001 Report Share Posted November 21, 2001 Works fine here.Can you run it in a window (/w1) and then post the exact message?Also, what game options did you choose? e.g. race, caste, career, launch station etc. I need COMPLETE info.[ 11-21-2001: Message edited by: Supreme Cmdr ] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eric3045 Posted November 21, 2001 Author Report Share Posted November 21, 2001 So far it seems that it crashes when i start at Syganstar, I tried one of the other locations, and the game ran fine, but when I tried Syganstar I get the message "error opening Sygan/PTYPE014" I'm playing as the terran insurgants, I have tried multiple ships, and both sexes. Yhe same thing happens it crashes when I leave the station at Syganstar.[ 11-21-2001: Message edited by: eric3045 ] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supreme Cmdr Posted November 21, 2001 Report Share Posted November 21, 2001 oops! Wrong file name.Here's the fix (which will also be in the patch)Look in the PTE2STETEX folder for PTYPE14.TGA. Just copy* it to PTYPE014.TGA.Try that.*I didn't say to rename it, I said copy it so that you have both PTYPE14.TGA and PTYPE014.TGA files in that folder.

Supreme Cmdr Posted November 22, 2001 Report Share Posted November 22, 2001 You can delete that PTYPE014.TGA file now. The patch fixes this problem automatically. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
