Cannot start the game - Start 0 pointer, no commander spawn

Post by Sky_walker »

I just run a fresh installation of TA Spring, played the game ages ago, so wanted to refresh good memories, but I got stuck in starting a game.
I downloaded everything from the Wiki.

I run Singleplayer game, mod: Balanced Annihilation v7.63, Spring v96.0, one RAI bot on a map Small Supreme Battlefield V2.

Game loads fine, I get text "Kill All Commanders", then ping on a map where is a blue marker Start 0 - and nothing happens... commander doesn't spawn, I can't select anything... I'm totally confused.

How can I run the game?

Please link to the page that told you download BA 7.63.

At the top:
This page is deprecated, please look at the Balanced Annihilation Homepage
That page is orphaned and not accessible via springrts.com/wiki. Glad your issue is solved :)

Oh....
I completly missed that somehow.

It's a first page that pops on Google once you type in "Balanced TA" so I loaded it and instantly looked for "download".

Perhaps put an old download link in strike and put a link there to a new download page?
