edit: Wow... 1.5 hours to download... What am I supposed to do for that long!
Yeah... sorry about that. It is about 600+ MB for the two files AFTER being zipped. Nearly a GB unzipped.

You are now experiencing first hand what has been driving me nuts these last few weeks.
If I start a regular BTS game, then exit and start an Adventure game, it sometimes works. Generally, I keep trying different load/start combinations and eventually it works. I would love it if someone could pinpoint this problem!

Made the change suggested by Vehem -- good catch, by the way.
It still did not resolve the load errors. I just tried it again, and got crashes right when it first starts to look at the XML. But this time, I started a normal goame of BTS, exited to the main menu, loaded the Adventure mod -- and it loaded right up.
But that procedure doesn't work all of the time.
I keep thinking that this has to be some obvious noob mistake I am making... if I have debugging turned on, will these load errors be captured in the BTS logs? I could post those if they would help.

I turned on the "create dump in a crash" bool in the init file. May it was already doing this, but I noticed a file called ThemeParseLog and opened it:

Make sense to anyone?
I have Vista and am scared to try now.
