Black Screen In-game

[AdamB]

hi all, after installing the new patch i went to play the game imediately. I got to the splash screens and a red box on a black background appeared. Strange i thought but i could live with that. Then i went to play a quick mission to test the performance. I loaded the level and was about to click fly when i noticed that the map hadnt appeared. Again strange but considering this was a beta patch i thought that to be fine. BUT... when i clicked fly to finally get in game i went straight to the desktop. The game still ran in the background and i could hear the sounds when i fire and move but i couldnt see anything because the game minimised itself and would not re-open.

Has anyone got any more ideas because this is the last straw and im bitterly disappointed with this.

System specs:

I7 2600K
GTS450 (which for me is good because i only have a low res. monitor)
16GB 1600mhz Corsair Vengence RAM
1TB WDCavier HDD
ASUS z68 mobo

have you tried some of the tips for a clean install and such? Sounds like something might be corrupt with your patch install?

yep i tried the clean install, cleaning the cache, going back to the previous patch, unsyncing with steam cloud, extracting with winrar (not manually) but still i launch the game and when i start to fly the screen goes black and it takes me to the desktop, no crashes occur because the game sounds still respond representive to the actions i give. Strange

Updated to the latest Video Card drivers and such as well?

I am with you.

Many years after, i've fire up my IL2 1946 again.

Update it to V4.10.1. from Team Daidolos.

Went here: http://ultrapack.il2war.com/index.ph...ownloads;cat=3

and here: http://ultrapack.il2war.com/index.ph...view;article=3

and downloaded UP3 mod. What a joy, the modders made a stunning work.

Join Hypperlobby. See you on the IL2 skies.

When you carried out a fresh install did you delete the 1csoftclub directory in documents?

no, i simply assumed that steam would automatically overwrite this anyway,

its not the game loading that im having a problem with, its the fact that when i click to go into a level i get returned to my desktop or get a black screen so i think its got something to do with the root folder, i completely got rid of the cashe folder in my documents but this didnt solve the problem.

AHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! RAGE
