What the title says (using the freshly built 0.7 for windows). The mouse pointer is visible/movable and the music works, so the game is probably still running.

This no longer seems to be an issue?

voodoo47 commented 5 years ago

still happening with the latest precompiled windows build (v0.7.5) for me.

HunterZ commented 5 years ago

Sorry, I mean with the latest master branch source code. Are you able to run this build as a test? systemshock.zip

voodoo47 commented 5 years ago

same behavior with the build from the zip.

HunterZ commented 5 years ago

This is when running with no .dat files in the .exe folder?

Where did your resource files come from? I wonder if they're different from mine (latest SSEE on GOG).

voodoo47 commented 5 years ago

aha, slight correction - looks like I only need one save file now (CurrentGame.dat will get created once I load it). resources were pulled from the dosbox/cd version (GOG).

voodoo47 commented 5 years ago

anyway, closing for now, as I'm 99% sure this was caused by using improper resources.
