Gudadantza: I saved in the campaign first mission and apparently all is fine, no crashes or freezes if that was the so called problem.
Saving always worked fine for me... loading a saved game however would crash the game.

Oh well, then in this case this specific problem is solved. The save game is loaded fine, without units to be built, of course :)
I had also troubles with the music tracks, pressing the plus or minus keys should advance the music tracks and it used to freeze and hang my game. Now it also works fine.

Played a skirmish mode and all is perfectly functional. The glitch only happens in the campaign, at least the original. Weird

Yeah, noticed the same :). Guess nobody tried the original campaign during testing...

Well...that would be...awkward, if they missed that...

I haven't tried it after the patch, but it did work on my Win10-64 before, though with the issues people mentioned. It never did work on any attempts on a Win7-64 install.

It looks like it got addressed with today's hotfix release ;).

P.S.: The new executable segfaults if you switch out GOG's ddraw wrapper (ddraw.dll) and replace it with cnc-ddraw for example. But I guess it's a small price to pay for working music and a fixed campaign save bug, wohooo! :P

Heck yeah! It only took a few years, but we haven't been forgotten! /cry (happy tears)

I wonder if GOG actually listen to me. lol I sent in a ticket a couple of weeks ago complaining about the game having a save bug issue on windows 10. Nice to see it fixed!!

Well, I highly doubt it's a Windows 10 thing (exclusively), but yes, can confirm it is now fixed. I'm playing it on Linux using Wine and it was crashing for me too either when I saved or loaded a campaign game. It certainly prevented me from continuing the campaign, since some long missions come along rather soon...

Well, I thought it was only a win 10 issue. Because I don't remember the save bug on windows 7. Happy it's fixed on linux as well.
