A little off topic, this post of yours does provide more proof of what I have been saying from day one.. The PC (hardware and software and config) can greatly affect how CoD acts.. Put another way.. Alot of the so called problems associated with CoD may in fact have nothing to do with CoD and everything to do with the current state of the PC.. Be it a config file or video drive or what ever.

In my opinion you are totally right on that. I wonder how much of a bad rap/revenue loss 1c got, due to that factor alone. How many of us maintain our system's, run disk clean up, defragment on a weekly basis, up-date drivers etc.
This game is insanely good and trouble free for me, in an off-line environment that is. The only complaint I could give, is that AI's flying abilities in heavy bombers is something to admire. I think that their marksmanship skill is well done though! and thanks to the team for that.

thx for all the answers gents....
i have steam cloud disabeled since last april i think, cause i had some problems with control settings when it was enabled.
well i agree with ace, that its propably something with my pc config which is causing the problems, but i had set up my whole pc with a new windows installation just a month ago, and directly after that, i installed clod, to avoid such things.
i tried to set my conf.ini files to read-only, but if i do that, my game will crash every time, when i want to exit it.it will run normally though.
pretty clueless whats the reason for this problem.

1.i have steam cloud disabled since last April i think

2. that its probably something with my pc config which is causing the problems,

3.i tried to set my conf.ini files to read-only

4.pretty clueless whats the reason for this problem.

1.You need to follow my advice in my first post above, it involves turning off cloud, and very important delete that file. Better yet, delete your soft club folder.

2.I don't think so in this/your case

3.Don't do that again

4.You need to slow down, re-read the "how to post's" in both of your threads. You were thinking there was something wrong, but there was'nt, then correcting, then it gets mucked up from that/your action. Take a look at how the game sees my controller's. Read my post in your other thread about pecking order(joystick1 or joystick2 or joystick are all normal...do not concern your self with their title, they will still work...in your case the game will see joystick & joystick1 because you have two controllers) and their numbers are assigned by which one you choose first when making a map in CH and their numbers/title are unimportant). Once you get going again, and after you get all of your controls set just the way you like them. Press the "save as" button in the game control section, then choose new folder, name it what ever you want...keep in mind that anytime you make a change to your controls after that, you need to press "save as" and then select that folder that you made previously...I have fighterstick/pro throttle/rudder pedals and so joystick, joystick1, joystick2...three controller's

I should add that once you have everything right, turn on the cloud. If you don't, you will need to select that folder you made/and press load...each time you start the game...good luck EDIT: If nothing works properly, you may have to reinstall steam and the game...Steam! it is buggy at times, I think the cloud corrupts the fileslook here https://support.steampowered.com/kb_...8296-VSOM-8056

So what are you saying? it's the luck of the draw if your PC runs CloD well? I don't buy that, it's the developers duty to make sure that their game runs well on a wide range of different setups, that's why we have common API standards like Directx for example. Heck! it's of the utmost importance that you make the game stable, especially financially. Won't matter soon anyway (hopefully) when/if the upcoming patch will alleviate some of the more pressing issues with the game.

Wide yes..

All hardly.. That is an unrealistic expectation imho..

Granted I realize that taking personal responsibility these days is the exception to the rule..

But imho if you want CoD to run will you well have to learn to take some
