Carlos, your errors are exactly the same as I get, down to the address (apart from being in German). I'm sure this kind of thing is easily fixable given this kind of debug information. One last piece of technical support from 1C would help us XP users.

Unhappy...very very...very...unhappy
 

My specs before you say I dont have enough:
- Win XP SP3
- i7-2600 CPU@3.40GHz (default, I never OC anything CPU, mem or GPU)
- 4GB ram
- Nvidia 560GTX (plenty of good frame rate all in ultra high setting in less than 10 times I got it to load)

It runs all the new nicest games @ full high settings, ArmA, Skyrim, Aerofly, Dishonored, and other that maybe forgot. And believe me, never crashed to desktop or blue screen if only ArmA does crashed sometimes at their early stages of development.

Its exactly my problem as described on quote, I bought the game 3 days ago at Steam and cannot play, and could not until now, it says it support win xp sp3 at Steam and everywhere, so you should support it...right?.. sorry the sarcasms :)

Well, I´d love the first IL2 Sturmovic, birds and expansions, but this one Cliffs of Dover is the only and worst game I ever bought, Im comming back from work every night expecting to make it work...the frustration on it is unbelievable, Im very, very unhappy.

"Now I have the game I was expecting for long and cannot play" This phrase dosent make sense, is wrong. I´m being nice, believe me, around this 3 days, I´ve read all over the internet it have problems and crashs trying to solve it, but its really on your end to solve it, I wish I had read it before buying.

I´ve being able to "sometimes" in this 3 days and more than...believe me, I know is a lot more...100´s of times changing settings and trying to play, when it goes, with a very nice FPS (frame rate) really, Im serious, very fast, but it crashs to desktop, all of the few 5 or even 10 maybe times it loads from menu to game it crashes, less than 5 minutes was the longest, I almost believed I could play.

Please, fix it, sorry if I mean hash but you done it, build the game that dont work, and are selling it, cant even load, its like I bought an abstract peace of dream that turns in a giant nightmare. Im sure you created it do make money, but to please people also, the second seems not working yet, again, yet I believe you will do it, or want to at least.

Very unhappy, very, very, very unhappy...

guys its only a longshot but turn automatic update OFF in steam and use this link to download an earlier patch:
http://forum.1cpublishing.eu/showthread.php?t=32916

drop that in and give it a go, don't know if it will work as i have win7 but anything is worth a try.

Not sure if thats allowed, even if is, how could I downgrade from Steam installation, I´m almost sure an updater will not allow to downgrade.

you can tell steam to "not automatically upgrade" its legal.
all you would need to do is drop the contents of the patch
into your core or parts folder. donbt worry give it a try,if it
still doesnt work you didnt lose anything if it does you can play.

Joji, thank you for that, Ill try it eventully, just not right now, anythink about it I will try to let you all know.

ty again Jojimbo

see ya

Jojimbo, that worked for me to play 1, sometimes 2 single missions before it crashes, but do not allow me to play online cause of version, and online playing is 80 or more percent of the game fun, not saying the giant list of updates, fix on airplanes and upgrades they´d done to this game since. Do not satisfies me. The online on a recent version crashes as soon I ask to create an airplane in the lobby.

I need this game playing in my winxp as they told it does. Anyway, thanks for your help but as a recent buy, Im asking a refund at Steam and hope it works, or Ill make sure this developer and publisher will never have space on my disks and memory´s, as my pockets gold, nevermore.

What`s going on?

Still have a non running game in XP 32 and I dont want upgrade to Win7 or use an illegal modification


Who should I conatct to get help?

:?

I feel your pain. 1C won't offer support and told me to contact Ubisoft support. I opened a ticket but so far they haven't been much help, just suggested making sure the game and their Uplay client was up to date. Maybe if enough people ask for support they'll do something to fix the XP 32 bugs.

Kevin

I`ve contacted Ubi support. Their first answer was, that I should try to reinstall the game. I did and it didn`t fix the problem.

Next round.
