I found that someone had the same problem:
http://www.battlefront.com/community/showthread.php?t=108394
I should also add that there is actually no "activation sprites" file in the bitmaps.
I bought Breakthrough today. But when I try to launch I get this error message:
"could not find bitmaps\activation sprites.bmp"
Info:
- The game is not installed on the default path
- But neither is SC The Great War and that works fine
- Patch 1.4 is installed (but the problem was already there before the patch)
Any help is appreciated.
Yes, it just happened again.
As he AI takes its turn (after my 9 sept 1940 turn), the camera moves to a Soviet engineer on the hex just south of Riga and this error message appears:
"FAILED (animate_fortification): Segmentation Violation"
Thank you, Shrullenhaft. I'll check with Gamergsgate.
The CTD happened in the 1939 campaign.
I have now reinstalled (without the patch) and trying that campaign again. If it happens again I'll post it here.
Hello, I bought Global Conflict from Gamer's Gate. I installed it to my F-drive. The version is 1.06.
1. I had no problems until halfway 1940 when a Russian engineer appeared on the still peaceful border with Germany. I assume he was building a fortress because at the end of the turn I get a "segment violation" and something about "fortification animation". After that CTD.
2. I hoped this would be fixed by some patch and discovered version 1.07. The patch installs correctly. But I never found out if this fixed the problem because the game refuses to start and I get a system error about some "elicen40.dll" being missing on my computer.
I would appreciate any help.
