I get that from time to time, though certainly not constantly.
Are you still using the base version of the game or are you patched up? You may have varying levels of success with some of the more recent beta patches. For some they're an improvement, for others they get constant crashing. It can't hurt to try different patches though in an effort just to get a mission to load. I also presume you have the latest DirectX? It might be worth downloading and installing DirectX separately, just in case. Speaking of DirectX, what version does your videocard support? Is it actually a DX10 capable card? Might be worth trying to force DX9 anyway, as a test if nothing else. I can't remember the line to set (in conf.ini), but someone else I'm sure can shed some light. |

Thanks PC. Yes I'm patched up to the latest beta. I've tried just the base install and each patch one at a time. The video card is supposed to be DX 10 capable, but I had to force it to DX 9 to resolve the video driver error I was getting.

I'm presuming you've tried different graphical quality settings as well as different resolutions?
What happens if you try start in windowed mode? |

Perhaps it's worth trying to install the stuff in the redist folder.
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\il-2 sturmovik cliffs of dover\redist\ You can ignore the GDF one but try running the installers in the other folders.

It is a long shot and maybe I say it due to my Vista-allergy but since you must have a Desktop PC and not a notebook, why don't you install Win7 64bit?
It should make a lot of things much better for all your applications. Long time WinXP loyal, I installed Win7 64 because of this game and was positively surprised... And it may solve your Launcher.exe problem. Good Luck! |
