A lot of fun is actually going on there. (Launcher crash is a big issue though.)

... thanks for your feedback Ataros, I changed my network settings but the game-crashes remain a major issue as you already said, hope they get it fixed some day. Good if you can shift your interest, while waiting, to some other nice games, ...

To fix launcher crash you can try ATAG_Snapper's hint to delete the cache folder before launching a game (could anyone create a batch file for this?) or these settings http://forum.1cpublishing.eu/showpos...&postcount=152

BTW. A new objectives-based mission by podvoxx is run on Repka #1 . A lot of work for ground-pounders there. May help to skip time to the patch faster

.BAT to delete cache:

rmdir /s "C:\Users\USERNAME\Documents\1C SoftClub\il-2 sturmovik cliffs of dover\cache"

it will ask you to confirm the action( delete).

you can download here:

Thanks a lot! What should be the command to make it start CloD automatically after clearing cache? It will be easier for everyone to place this .bat file on the desktop and start CloD this way only to fix the launcher crash issue.

Add this line:
START /D "X ( YOU HAVE TO SET THE PARTITION):\Steam\SteamApps\common\il-2 sturmovik cliffs of dover" Launcher.exe

for example:
rmdir /s "C:\Users\Javier\Documents\1C SoftClub\il-2 sturmovik cliffs of dover\cache"
START /D "J:\Steam\SteamApps\common\il-2 sturmovik cliffs of dover" Launcher.exe


Download link:
qpassa.site90.net/FAQIL2E69/CacheIL2v2.bat

If you want to use in your desktop and you think it's ugly, you can create a file shortcut and change its icon in its properties( selecting the Launcher exe icon)

EDIT Please use the file attached below.

Thank you! This did not start Steam for me (gave error if Steam was not runing) and I am too lazy to start it myself So I changed it to:

Start Game:

rmdir /s "C:\Users\USERNAME\Documents\1C SoftClub\il-2 sturmovik cliffs of dover\cache"
Start "" "steam://rungameid/63950"

Go directly to Repka #1 server bypassing menus (change IP for any other server):

rmdir /s "C:\Users\USERNAME\Documents\1C SoftClub\il-2 sturmovik cliffs of dover\cache"
Start "" "steam://connect/84.17.22.14:27016"

Manual:
1. Copy to notepad.
2. Replace the USERNAME with what you have in your system path.
3. Save as a .bat file, i.e. a file with a "bat" extension. (How to create a bat file.)

Please test if it helps to stop launcher crash.

EDIT Attached file should work for everyone at least on Win-7. No need to edit path/username, just extract and run. Please report if it helps to stop crashes.
