That's probably because the desc_strat is incomplete. Ahowl still needs to tweak it a bit, because, right now, it causes CTD. Use the desc_strat from the 0.6 folder.

What was the last thing you did before the CTD?

Double click on the shortcut. Game is loading. CTD.

It doesn't matter which version of descr_strat I use.

0.5 was working just fine, too. I'll reinstall everything one more time later, but I'd be surprised if it worked. Am I really the only one with this? The fact that there is no error message implies that it's not just some little coding issue.

All you did was put the 0.6 data over the 0.5 data right?

Yes, and I have just done it for the 3rd time. The only thing I noticed this time is that, for some reason, 0.5 had the vanilla main menu. What on earth is going on?

You must have installed something wrong somewhere.. Go back to the 0.5 install instructions and make sure you did everything

After lots of deleting and re-installing, it looks like I managed to at least get a proper 0.5 Beta again. I'll try to install 0.6 little by little and see what file(s) are causing problems, although that won't be easy, since several of them depend on each other. But that will have to wait until tomorrow. My nerves won't take any more of this.

I'm confused as to how you've had so much difficulty. Everyone else has been fine..

That makes two of us, then.

There seem to be different combinations of files that cause a textless CTD. The only file I found capable of causing a textless CTD all by itself is expanded_bi.

Just to be on the safe side: the Beta is supposed to go to RTW->data, not RTW->BI->data, right?

Well, anyway, no beta 0.6 for me.

Now the question is what I'm supposed to do from here on. I guess I can redo my previous trait work in a way that it won't affect any other files, so it shouldn't matter what beta I'm even using. Thoughts?

This makes just no sense what so ever. If you have 0.5 installed, all you have to do is download 0.6, and extract the contents of it's data folder into the data folder of 0.5..

Delete map.rwm and everything should run smoothly.

I'm not gonna continue until you we can get 0.6 working for you.

Take screens of the process and then post them here. Maybe we will catch the problem.

Actually I'm having the same problem now too, I had to reinstall the game and the 0.5 beta worked fine but when I add 0.6 it stopped working for me too.

I didn't even tried to install 0.6, given the reports.
