TotA beta bug: Return of the Dread Lords DA campaign mission

After completing DA campaign mission "A Nightmare on Dithir" (moving on to "Return of the Dread Lords"), the planetary improvement list, shipyard list and research screens are blanked out (can't build anything).

I am playing TotA beta version 0.95[b].002 (updated 1/11/08).

This is my first post here, so if it is in the wrong place, please forgive me

The "Beta Reports" forum is the accurate place for such posts.

Still, do you have a save of the bugged mission? If so, zip it up and e-mail it to [email protected] with an explanation of what you did that triggered it (that is, played A Nightmare on Dithir and started Return of the Dread Lords).

Thanks for response and the correction. Will do tonight (re: your instructions)

Are the old DL and DA campaigns suppose to be able to work under TA 0.95[b]002 ?? because I am having a hard time trying to get the game to work when I try.

Many times the tech tree reverts to the older DL or DA versions which in an ongoing game totally screws things up causing crashes when the game doesn't know what it's doing
I also get constant crashes between scenarios when I try to continue to the next level. The UI is real messed up with buttons not working and borders missing etc.

They should work, so be sure to report any problems. AFAIK the campaigns should draw from the appropriate old tech tree files rather than the TA tech trees (which would get messy).
