2) There's no log created, also (LOG=1 on conf.ini)
3) On the cache/shaders folder there's only a single file with 0 bytes length, named "1.06.17582"
4) Tried to reinstall from scratch
5) Using DX10 with 12.4 Catalyst drivers.
My Specs:
Q6600@2,98Ghz, 4Gb RAM, Win7 x64, HD5850 1Gb video, 1920x1080 full screen. |
I had exactly the same problem - what I did to resolve:
0) Clean reinstall of Cliffs of Dover, then...
1) Made a copy of my pre-patch 'parts' folder (...\Steam\steamapps\common\il-2 sturmovik cliffs of dover\parts)
2) Cleared all files in cache (...\Documents\1C SoftClub\il-2 sturmovik cliffs of dover\cache)
3) Downloaded the patch files from Blacksix's link
4) Extracted the files using WINRAR (don't use for example winzip - unpacks but files don't work) into a new folder on my desktop. This results in a new 'parts' folder containing folders 'bob' & 'core'.
5) Copied & then pasted the new 'parts' folder from desktop into ...\Steam\steamapps\common\il-2 sturmovik cliffs of dover\
6) Get message do you want to merge folder 'parts', 'bob' and then 'core', said yes to each and to copy and replace files.
7) Done - game now starting fine
(if anything goes wrong you can delete your 'parts' folder and replace with your backup copy from step 1).
