Hey guys!! I've got a solution for the "Cultist Crash Bug" (CCB)!
To avoid it : open the scenario editor, then load (where you installed Chaos Gate)/Maps/ for example Chapter1.map. But before you do the editing, click Properties on the file and un-tick the Read Only box. Then in the editor, delete ALL Cultist. You can replace them with Chaos Marines or with Chaos Dreadnoughts for a challenge.
A little help to the editor : - You can delete objects, by right-click on it, then delete/character.
- You can switch levels in the View section
If you can't delete all the Cultist, you better do the WordPad-trick, (Open the Data/WeaponDef.DAT with WordPad (not with NotePad), search for "Laspistol" and rewrite the "AP use 15" to "50" then save.) but be careful! Don't let to any Cultist hit you in close combat!! If any Cultist are near you, shoot them down at first!!
And before you ask : I've installed patch 1.2. I've played the game on 1024x768 resolution(just like the game's resolution) with 16 bit color. Compatibility mode is Win 95. In DirectX diag (Start/Run/dxdiag.exe), I've choose the "No Hardware Acceleration" at Sound Properties. In the Video Card properties, I've choose the "No Hardware Acceleration" too.
I've downloaded the slayerui.dll, but I think it's the worst mistake, that I ever made!! I thought it was for my Win XP to, but it was for Win 2000 only, where there's not compatibility mode in the Properties. Now I can't change to 256 color mode and run program only in 640x480 res. So, if someone can help me delete this wrong .dll, and get the Windows to the normal, I'll thank it!
