hey everyone,

i never made it through terra nova, back in the nineties. so now, that dosbox runs quite decently on my mac, i thought id give it another shot.
everything worked pretty well - until i got to mission 27. thats the one with the giant cannon youre supposed to fire at that evil sattelite.
first, tn would crash during the gameplay. i got around that by not giving anyone the missile launcher nor grenades. as i found out later, it would help to switch the cpu to normal, instead of auto/dynamic.
however, at the end of the mission, when the dropships doors opened, the screen will black out, and....thats it. no debriefing. no option to save the game. it just black, and i can exit dosbox the hard way.

i also tried it with a more current version of dosbox that i build myself from the svn sources. that was what pointed me to the dynamic/normal core thing, however, it still blacked out at the end of the mission.
its also funny, how this only happens in mission 27, and i could play with virtually no problems before. and no, i havent changed any settings. :-)

anyone else with similar experience?
ill keep you updated, in case i find the error.
cheers
