Crash Upon Initiating Earthling Dialogue

likely from missing Commander_Background.fbx

from StarControl Forums
Greetings, all! 

At some point, most likely after the last update, the game started crashing upon initiation of the dialogue with the starbase in Sol (including on a new game). Looking through error files, I found an error log saying the game fails to load ../Assets/Models/Commander/Commander_Background.fbx, and found there's no such file in there. Running a verification of integrity/repair didn't seem to fix anything. 

Is there a way to quickly fix that? Can I get the missing fbx somewhere? What am I doing wrong the repair tool doesn't notice the omission? 

Thanks in advance!

Hi, 

We followed up with on steam but I repost here: 

What DLC do you have?

Multiverse and Reinforcements.

 

Rolling back to 1.30hotfix turned out to be a viable workaround but of course that means I had to downgrade other stuff to keep playing. Also actually I have the GOG version and should've posted here and not on Steam. But what's done is done.

No problem.  We'll look into it.
