Title: Returned to RA2, DSL crashing on startup
Post by: inplabth on February 19, 2011, 09:26:19 PM: Hey, everyone. After a long time away form here I ran across one of many backups that I have of RA2 and immediately wanted to play it. Since I typically play DSL exclusively, my DSL backup was the first one that I tried. As soon as it started up, it crashed. I figured that something in it had gotten corrupted over time or something along those lines, so I downloaded the one from Sage's sig and that one crashes too. I'm not entirely sure what is going on.
