2nd Campaign Mission Not Advancing.

i've got a strange problem. i've successfully purged the three ork settlements that were pinged on my mini map. after the first two were destroyed, the game autosaved and all was well. however, i've since destroyed the third camp and nothing happens. i've reloaded a couple different games and tried it again, and the same thing happens. it's like some script trigger is not catching or something to that effect.

does anyone know if there's an instant win cheat yet? or could someone who's made it past this mission send me their save game folder?

Stuck On Misson 2!!

I get to the 3rd ork camp and once I start building my base i get a error. Then I hit resume and continue to kill everything on the map but the misson never completes! Help!!

I have the same problem.. The objective says to complete a base. But ass soon as I start my base i get a error at the top of my screen. Then i proceed to kill everything possible on the map and the objective says i still need to build a base.

Try building every structure you have in you list that seemed to trigger it or it could be the error :/

jeffLebowski: theres an Ork barracks (Boyz Hut) back towards where you start on the map. Make sure you destroy that one.

spawnlod: try completing construction of your base before destroying all of the Orks. Also, the error that shows up at the top of the screen, we need to know exactly what it says in order to better assist you.

ok now the game is gonna make a liar out of me... I go to the point where i get the error and it studdered for a second then continued on without the error coming up. It might because I didnt have my Servitors grouped that time. Not sure but I made it threw that objective. Finally after about 5 tries

I really can't be any more clear... besides, no one's read the guidelines yet.

I didn't recieve an error message but after the final objective was completed it told me i had failed the mission and would have to do it over.

I will go back over it and see if i get an error message.

is there a error log dump file in the game dir?

There's a warnings.log file which does contain some errors (see what I mean Sidewinder?).

Well it would appear that if you do not upgrade your strongehold to a monistary on mission 2 and you complete all your other objectives you will fail the mission.

This should be easy enough to fix... prehaps throw in a trigger telling you to upgrade (cause it will make it much easyier to kill those big meks) or make the upgrade an opational victory condition.

I will go back and reconfirm this finding later (its late) but I thought this might be why some people have been having this problem.

To clarify, are you getting a message at the end that indicates "Mission Failed" if you don't upgrade to monastary?

well nevermind it worked this time without upgrading to monastary. The only thing i did different was pick up that extra company of space marines that trigger an attack on a stratigic point that you already control in the east part of your minimap.

Anyway the first time that I completeed the mission I totally missed the commander telling me to upgrade the stronghold... probably because I was in the middle of a fire fight. I heard it this time... my bad.

Please disreguard my perivious post as I was unable to recreate it.

I would try this again but i have played the lvl four times now and i am not getting paid to test this so i think mission three calls

and yes to clarify i did recieve a message that idicated that I hade failed the mission.
