After the Ixmucane level in Episode 3, one of the datacubes you receive is from the rebel leader, Reid. Reading it causes the game to crash.

According to this VOGONS thread, it occurs even when not emulated, and apparently missing a cube may fix the problem.

Yup, I encounter the same bug. Alas I have no idea how to fix it. Anyone else have an idea? My OCD nature really really wants to read that silly cube.

Same here, haha.. I really enjoyed reading what the cubes had to say.

But yeah, I too had this problem. Alas, what can we do?

According a site with the script, it just says:

ASTEROID CITY FLUX 53863
Reid
Trent! Flee to Stargate sector immediately!! Have detected a large sqadron
apprxxme.


<Computer Log: Transmission end.>


This seems to match with my recall from the last time I played through the non-2000 version years ago.
