new to game, patch problem
Posted: Mon Feb 16, 2009 5:47 pm
Hi all,
I am new to the game and wanted to introduce myself. I have been a fan of WW2 sims for some time, mainly the Silent Hunter 2/3 series. I am now shifting gears to the Civil War.
It seems that I am no longer able to load the game after installing the 1.13b patch. Let me qualify this by saying that I am running the game on a laptop that is far below the minimum specs on RAM/video card requirements. Out of the box the game loads and I am able to start the tutorial (although it takes forever to load the game, drags on textures). After applying the patch it stops loading at around 56% of textures and gives me an exe. error message and terminates the program. I have reinstalled the game and as before it loads without the patch. has 1.13b pushed my little laptop over the edge or could there be a problem with my download of the patch? Thanks for your input.
I disabled the "load all textures" during initialization and the game loads quickly
update - it now also loads after applying 1.13b. Hoping that whatever was causing the problem during the texture loading will not occur in the middle of a game!
