Hi all,

I hope that you can be of help; I've recently got around to playing the original Blitzkrieg and I'm experiencing an irritating bug that occurs on certain missions, usually the second one in when playing any part of the campaign

As soon as the level loads the objectives are listed. Normally, these appear as blue triangles that "shrink" on the minimap, only this doesn't happen, and the blue triangles "stick"

Also, the scroll by moving the mouse to the edge of the screen no longer works

Finally, if you continue play and click on the minimap to move around, any sound will "stick" repeating over and over and layering up till the PC is shrieking and i can no longer play.

Interestingly, if i leave the mission, load the previous "End of Game" save and go in again BUT TO ANOTHER RANDOM LEVEL, it will work OK.

It appears that one of the three random missions will always be bugged in every chapter.

The only other reference I've found to this problem is another user elsewhere...

Unfortunately, i cannot continue play until i find a solution as the noise and inability to play certain missions for particular upgrades is hindering me.

Many thanks

Have you tried the usual stuff, like Run as Administrator and Compatibility Mode? Also, be sure to install the game (or any GOG, for that matter) outside of C:\Program Files

Hi yep, i've done all the usual stuff and the game is outside of Program Files in a directory with less than 8 characters and no spaces ( C:\Bltzkrg\ ).

System is as follows

Windows XP SP3 (Logged in and running as administrator)
AMD FX-60 Processor (Socket 939) - Mounted on a Gigabyte GA-K8NXP-SLi Motherboard
Radeon HD 4850 2GB with latest Catalyst Drivers
4GB DDR 400MHz RAM (3.25GB in XP) - 2x1GB Corsair matched pair in Bank 1, 2x1GB Kingston Matched Pair in Bank 2
SoundBLASTER X-Fi Platinum Fatal1ty Champion (Latest Drivers)
Steelseries MERC Stealth Keyboard (Also tried with a standard UK Extended keyboard)
Steelseries XAI Laser Mouse (Also tried with a standard Microsoft 100 Optical Mouse)

The problem is also apparent on my newer FM1 and i7 (Both Win7) based systems. Only common ground between them all are the Creative Sound-cards and Steelseries Hardware (albeit Shift Keyboard on the new ones), but i have eliminated these by swapping out to standard mouse/keyboards and removing sound-cards and drivers to use the on-board REALTek ones...

Many thanks

I had the same problem a couple of days ago. I found out that it is caused by corrupted .sav file(s). For my problem, I just find a .sav file in the same campaign in good state and deleted the rest of them. Of course, you should do a backup first. It solved my problem. Hope it is not too late for you.

Same problem here. Bit more infuriating since all new maps glithces, even new campaigns.
I tried seanwang's solution and he is right, after deleting all the saves It works again. Problem is , no saves left.
Sooo... if anyone got a USSR campaign save from after Leningrad (1st historical mission after the Winter war) that would help a lot.
