**** new since last post ****
-force DX11, load the game, choose new contract, start mission, save game.
-unforce DX11, load game, play mission, finish it, leopard loads, change room : crash. (as expected)
-force DX11, load the game, choose new contract, launch mission, go alt-tab during loading, check back on it later : became kind of unresponsive.
-kill process, try again (hm, maybe i just should have left the game do its thing)
-stupid "continue" option did not load the right save, loading the right save manually, start mission, save game. quit by using "quit to desktop" instead of kill process
(geez, this tokk forever)
-unforce DX11, load game, play mission, finish it, leopard loads, change room : crash. (as expected)
-force DX11, "continue", Loaded the wrong save again, goddammit !
-erase wrong save, load correct save choose new contract, start mission, save game.
-unforce DX11, load game, play mission, finish it, leopard loads, change room : crash. (as expected)
-force DX11, load the game, choose new contract, start mission, save game.
-unforce DX11, load game, play mission, finish it, leopard loads, change room : crash. (unusual : yang says "hey commander, be with you in a second")
-force DX11, load the game, start scenario mission "liberate prison", start mission, save game.
-unforce DX11, load game, play mission, jeez i made something really dumb
-reload mission, finish it (damn i forgot to save before the end !), unexpectedly everything works : is saving the game mid-mission bad ?
-launch new contract, play mission, game freezes near the end (no apparent reason, computer is hot but tolerable i guess)
-loaded the last savegame (pre-mission), argo loads fine, everything seems to work.
-start mission, game freezes (pc is super hot, i should try to lower the resolution to 1200x720)
-killed process, reload save, everything still works (whenever things worked before, it used to work only once, the game would crash normally the second time)
-launch contract, play mission (pc get hot but tolerable) argo screen loads, change room : crash (disappointed)
-force DX11, load the game, choose new contract, start mission, save game.
-unforce DX11, load game, play mission, finish it, argo loads fine, change room : crash
-force DX11, load the game, choose new contract, start mission, save game.
-unforce DX11, load game, play mission, save before the end, finish it, argo loads fine, change room : crash
(played a few more missions like that, no change whatsoever)
-finished one mission, one event immediately pops up (distress call from damage ship), resolve the event
-instead of changing rooms to the mech bay as usual, went to "hiring hall", hired a mechwarrior, saved manually. go to the barracks : everything works !
-start next scenario mission, save midway.
(dammit, i really need to unclog those fans -> take entire computer apart, clean everything)
-load save (everything seems a bit more responsive, but maybe my imagination) finish mission (dang, forgot to save before the end)
-cutscene tries to load, some sound signals that it started, but the screen stays black. (obviously)
-load save, continue mission, save just before killing the last mech, finish mission : cutscene works (dafuk ?) but game crahs upon changing room on the argo screen (consistency ?)
(is there something with the act of saving the game, somehow ?)
-load the post mission autosave, click on "hiring hall" (not changing room) save the game, everything works (maybe i'm on to somehting...)
-start new contract, argo screen loads fine, make manual save : everything works. (it's 2am -> sleep)
-start game again next day, load save, check hiring hall, change room : crash
-try again, argo screen loads, make manual save (again), change room : everything works
-started a new contract, played the mission, finished it, argo screen loads, manual save, change room : crash (but this time i have an error log !)
