First post. Installed OFF for the first time yesterday. Flew a few quick missions to orient myself and like everyone here am thrilled with the product. Noticed the expansion was available and jumped all over it. After installing everything went well but when I tried to begin my mission the game went to the initialization screen and hung up. Hitting alt-tab after 5 minutes I found a window with the following in it:

 

An invalid character was found in text content.

Error on line 91, position 47 in

file:///c:users/the%20bryant's/appdata/roaming/microsoft/cfsww1%20over%20flanders%20fields/unlimitedpilota.xml

you should also have a file in there called unlimitedpilotsbak.xml...not sure how often it makes this backup, but you may want to try and save your original file,,copy the backup and rename it to unlimitedpilots.xml.

 

not sure how much you will lose if your doing campaign.

Will contact support but wanted to add a follow up. I deleted both of the unlimitedpilot files and generated a new pilot and had the same issue. Was able to get back in game and was prompted to reste my CFS settings. Did so in the workshop and was able to fly.

 

On a side note set up a french pilot in the escadrille with the squadron set at the earliest date with the nieuport 11 and the issue would develop again. Selected a different squadron and got it started. Just an FYI.

Polovski..... game was updated to 1.32 before I installed HiR. For the little I have done seems to be the French fighter escadrille squadron (last on the list). Will try a couple of others to see if its isolated.

 

 

Oh, BTW, as a noobie here....... thanks for everything you and OBD put into this. Can't wait to get more into it and then apply some of my amatuer photoshop skills to working some more skins......

I have the same problem once it hangs it will continue...French squads do it for me( Laf Esc) hit the reset /install button in the wokshop and pick a new pilot Usa british german until they figure whats up remember once you get hung up it wont go away unless you hit the button and then go and reset graphics

Thanks guys, I think it is caused by the Esc Laf using a none-allowed character on one letter. Esc Américaine

 

So for the moment avoid the Esc Laf between April - Nov 1916 until we work a fix - thanks.
