I could finish 5th level many times with lots of grenadiers.
Good to hear that you could reach 9th level.
Can you share save file from it?

Here is my save file. I tested it with 040 today but no difference, the game still crashes the emulator completely when repairing a vehicle. Just drag the full harvester back to the refinery in my save file, and you'll get the repair facility. :)

Great work! I can confirm mission 5 now working, and no crashed buildings when damaged. Mission 7B, Austria now loads (has a crashed intro anim) but the game quits with a guru when using the repair pad. Mission 9 now loads, with working intro anim. Again it crashed when using the repair pad with error 8000 000A. How do I download the new Speech.Mix file; I think this is what I need..
I've now completed the friendly missions. Will try the enemy missions soon.
Minor bugs list
- When starting the game, sometimes it goes to a black screen and hangs, sometimes it skips the intro title card, and goes to the green Westwood logo. The game used to always load up normally before this update.
- The version numbers in the corner of the title screen seem random, this could say V1.03 or something.
- The FMVs play too quickly, and goes out of sync with the audio after one second.
- When selecting multiple helicopters to re-arm at the helipad, only the first one will land and re-arm, the rest must be done manually. I dont know if this is native to the game, by re-arming 8 helicopters can get very boring.
- Sometimes when selecting a destination for the helicopters after a battle, one will often land and gets left behind in enemy territory. Clicking the destination target twice usually fixes this bug.
Thanks for a report.

Yeah, noticed too, will investigate.

That's a git revision of sources but it is not updated in my build , I will change it to my versioning.
The FMVs play too quickly, and goes out of sync with the audio after one second.
Current playaback code is too demanding even for WinUAE.
I have converted all movies to mpg. They will be played with Riva. Copy Riva to game folder.

Can you send me save file again ?
Here is a save of the last level of the friendly missions, where you can play with the helicopters. Word of warning, there are four enemy power plants still active on the level, so dont take on the laser towers until you have taken out 3 of the 4 generators. One of them is hidden in the bottom right corner, along with the nuclear warhead building. If you shoot at the warhead building, your home base will be blown up!

I copied Riva over and now the FMVs all play fine (have not checked Austria, which was corrupt before), with the audio now in sync.
With this update, there are still some clicking noises with the audio on the FMVs and title music, but in the game it seemed fine. I went to the music page in the game but it locked up, and I was unable to scroll down through the music tracks.
With this update, the scrolling seems to be even more broken than it was before. The scrolling starts off very slow, and slowly accelerates to full speed. I was going to say that the scrolling was a bit too sensitive before, and that it was hard to rush back to parts of the map without scrolling beyond where you wanted to stop. But with this version is seems even harder. I moved the scroll speed back to the top, but it seemed to make no difference.
Just tried NOD mission 2, Egypt, and it doesn't load. The interface still works, but nothing appears on the level.
There were a few errors reported by Riva about locking onto the executable. The FMVs play in 16:9 but they used to be 4:3 before, which I think looks better. The game seems to not hang on loading with this update.
