    Blitz wont launch tonight

    Hi,
    Came to launch Blitz tonight and it wont launch.
    Have we had a windows update or Steam update this last few days to cause this ? Last ran it ok on 28march 02:37
    I have a few days ago (25th) backed up C drive then installed TMPGencAuthoring Works for creating a dvd video, first time reinstalled since PC rebuild two yrs ago.
    But as Blitz has run since then that wouldnt be the cause. I have done nothing else at all. Rebooted PC but still no joy.
    I have never failed to launch CoD MoDs before. MoD 4.312 runs ok.

    Just as I am about to go further skin testing easter friday !

    Help !!!

    I have noticed nothing new released..other than a video driver sitting ready for installing..

    Have you done the usual..

    1:clear cache and the cppcrash folder... gets a little full.
    2:- Game Integrity check.
    3:- any new hardware added ? usb-wise ?

    Hi,
    I see a fix is made on March 24 , yet I didnt encounter an issue and had been running Blitz on 28th march. no probs until 2 days ago. Not sure how one gets hold of it though. Now asked this on thread below.

    https://theairtacticalassaultgroup.c...658#post309658

    and thus which route to take on this.

    Anyone know ?

    Cheers

    Is CloD set to “keep my game up to date” ?

    I have steam beta set to not run, did that some time ago, not aware of where that setting you mention is otherwise.
    ah found it....

    other thread has asked of this, here is my setting
    Steam_Blitz_Properties.jpg

    I have backup up IL2 folder C drive, also my stills in those, also D drive Steam folders, steam being installed to D drive, so unless I tell it that it wont know where to install updates to !

    protects me from its nasties !

    so why should its update wreck blitz ?

    as such am I good to go now ,

    and follow advice:-

    Steam/library/games/Cliffs of Dover;Blitz/Uninstall

    as I normally use windows on PC for uninstalls. I dont want steam wrecking my pc.

    despite that link saying dont worry about CoD user settings, THERE ARE CUSTOM SKINS AND STILLS THAT WOULD MAYBE GET DESTROYED ?? so advise backup of these !

    I am awaiting answers there ! Lost all Saturday so far through this when it was to be dedicated to CoD skinning and such chances in life are slim.

    I hope there is a fix, as this fix talked of by Boo that went out hasn't fixed me yet.

    I will be disabling steam updates totally, narrowly avoided the last big issue they caused.
    stupid company releasing updates without testing. No means of contacting them either. Wrecking peoples games and days and ATAGs work.
