Describe issues with BOB COD that need patch - for Oleg, Luthier

[gigidang]

it would be nice if a ever be able to run the game...

When i start CloD in Steam, there is a short sign of a logo, then nothing happens. No error-report, nothing.

My Sys:
Intel Core 2 Quad Q9550
MSI P35 Neo2
4 GB Ram
Gigabyte GTX 470 SOC
Nvidia 295.73
Win7 64

I reinstalled DotNetFX 4.0 and Visual C++ without any difference.

I will NOT reinstall my OS only to be able to rund this game, as there is no problem with any other applications.

Sorry I posted this on maybe the wrong thread yesterday too, I think here is a the best choice because it maybe related to other "crash-related" issues and only possible to fix by patch??? So I try again:

Hi, I am newbie to CoD from Sweden (sorry for my not perfect english, hope You understand) and have not yet learned more than doing basic flying in Hurricane, Me 109 and Spitfire in the quickmissions. A problem destroys the experience though
The game (I have the latest version via steam update, to this date = april 4th, 2012) every time after every one to max two minutes "crashes" down to the bottom of my screen, the bar/field there at the bottom of the Windows 7-screen. (*I do not know its english name for sure - maybe it is the "activity field"/"activity bar"?)

I.e. the game behaves as if I runned the game in a windoved mode and volontary "clicked it down to the bar" so I can see/use the windows desktop instead.. It even has it's icon there on the bar (as if CoD was "downclicked") - and it comes up to normal when I click on it. Then I can fly for a approx. a minute again, before the same problem repeat it self. Which makes learning the sim quite impossible. I do not have a clue what to do to fix this. Please help me if You can?
I start the game via clicking on the CoD icon, then comes the steam, and then after shift+tabing (it does not btw respond on that commando without multiple tries). After that I come to the game proper screens without problems.
NB The "crash/downclicking thing" only start to appear after the mission per se is started and I am flying in the air.
I have tried the game in 1920 x 1200 and several other resolutions. Now I use 1600 x 1200 for better FPS with most videooptions maxed out. I have AA to 8x, disabled the anti-Ep filter, use SSAO and VSYNC (have tried all other combinations too, I think..).
The problem is the same when I try it on fullscreen, pseudo or off!
I have no problems at all with DCS A-10C or Rise of Flight or other programs I have.

MY PC: MSI motherboard. AMD Phenomen(tm)II x6 1100T processor, 3,3 GHz. I have two AMD Radeon HD 6900grafic cards with cross-fire. 17 GB installed memory. I have Windows 7 Ultimate, 64 bit. The game is installed in the standard way on my C-drive. My screen is a Samsung syncmaster with max resolution 1920 x 1200, 60 Hz. I use TM Hotas Warthog (mapped ingame for buttons and axes), Saitec Pro Combat rudderpedals and a Logitech G19 keyboard. Track IR 5 pro.
I have the latest driver for my graphics card says the program/computor when I tried to update the driver (Advanced Micro Devices, Inc, date 2012-03-08, version: 8.951.0.0).

I just hope that someone here can give me advice what to do.
Best Regards and a Happy Easter to You all! /Michael E, Sweden

have you tried:
1. Find C:\Users\*YOUR USER*\Documents\1C SoftClub\il-2 sturmovik cliffs of dover\conf.ini, look under [window] and set Render=D3D9_0 instead of Render=D3D10_0 (or reverse whatever it is)? Seen on a few websites/threads. If there's no D3D entry try adding either one like:
[window]
.............
.............
.............
Render=D3D10_0

2. Try making fullscreen "pseudo" in video settings. Also seen on a few websites.

Thank You klem!!!!!

Changing in conf.ini to: Render=D3D9_0 instead of Render=D3D10_0, made the trick. I now can fly the time I want to

Well it was a bit of a shot in the dark and for your card I don't think it should be necessary but the patch should sort that out when it comes.

Hope to see you online some day.

By the way you will probably still experience launcher crashes online after about 1-1.5 hours due to memory leak. Also being addresed in new patch.
