Hello, I am a new member of Bear Pit but I have played JA2 on and off since 2000/2001, and I just recently decided to play it again. Well then I found the 1.13 patch, and all these wonderful mods you guys have created for JA2. Seems like one of my favorite games isn't going anywhere just yet, and I'm pumped about it.
However, every time I start a new game it works beautifully with my new computer, which is running Windows 7, beautifully right up until I try to load a game. Then I get an error every time and cannot load my game. Obviously I am not interested in playing JA2 from the beginning every time I take a break, what is going on? Is there a fix for this or am I just sh*t out of luck? Is it an install problem that can be easily covered?

I got it last night, I checked a few of the different posts on the most recent SCI updates and eventually got it right, and now run it as admin. Problem solved!
And again, thanks to the community here for keeping this amazing game fresh. I am overwhelmed by all the different gear and weapon options, but it is great.

Yay, welcome to 1.13!
With all of the options available, it's hard to find out what to do...so just get yourself a FA-MAS and start killing!

Headrock*Sigh* the very thought of the amount of issues I'll experience with Win7 is enough to convince me to stick with XP.
Glad you figured it out though. Have fun.
Honestly, it wasn't a big deal once I got the right version of 1.13, and ran everything as admin. Given the amoun t of trouble I was having I was surprised with how simple the fix was.
I have been a huge JA2 fan for many years, and I really missed out on a few years at least of awesome JA2 play by not being a member of Bear's Pit earlier. After playing through 1.13 and UB once or twice I am going to start trying out some of the other mods, does anyone have any favorites or a good few of them I should try first?
