With cordite in the air, splintered steel, shell casings and powder burns, there’s only one explanation...
If you have any trouble with SG, this is the place to ask.

Thought I might as well add what I get, since there are similarities and it may help pinpoint problems.

I run Vista 32bit Home Premium, the game has always started perfectly - but the intro movie does not play. The sound of the movie does play, but it's just a black screen. Clicking skips the intro without any problems. The credits movie does play without any problems however.

At one point the intro movie did play perfectly, I'm not quite sure what changed.

Hope that helps!

The intro doesn't play on widescreen with the quake 3 point based codebase, but should with ioquake3.

I have newer ones up here:

Use -noal if you have crackling sound or conflicts with mixing audio streams.

I tried both of those, but they have the DEP crash. I downloaded them both to the same directory as my SG install - I assume that's what should be done.

Here is the details of my crashes with those two:

I'll see what the latest revision I can build without needing to fix a bunch of other problems is and post the files.
