New beta patch is dx10 only?! Read if you can't get COD to start after updating.

[highness]

i had the similar issue at the very beginning right after applying the patch

i deleted everything inside /cache/ folder and also conf.ini file and the sim started normally,

those are located in:

..\Documents\1C SoftClub\il-2 sturmovik cliffs of dover\

after some experimentation , i have noticed the sim won't launch when i try to set all graphics settings to max with SSAO and VSYNC to 'on' - i thought with the 680GTX i could afford that, but apparently not.

right now i have it running 'fine' - sort of, using the default preset setting "HIGH" but without ssao and vsync
