Can no longer load this game on Steam. Apparently an automatic update of Steam did it. Any ideas on how to get it to work. Discussion for last few days on Steam and no working fixes are available.
The devs are aware and burning the midnight oil to fix it.
Yes, same problem here - looked at lots of "fixes" on the web but none worked. Fingers crossed!
Something changed in one of the recent Steam updates. Command had the same issue that it wouldn't run on Steam without jumping through some hoops.
Fixed now. Enjoy.
now getting DirectX error 0x887A0004, all drivers up to date, maybe my GPU (GeForce 220) isn't supported?

Jesus, dude...that's a 10 year old card! I've got a 970 and/or a 980 I'll sell you cheap. Make me a reasonable offer.
Isn't a 220 one of those mobile laptop cards?

No. It's for desktops, but it's very obsolete. They typically only come with 1gb of DDR3 and are only dx10 capable. I think you can get them used for under $20.
I have a GTX 660, it does fine on most of the stuff I play. But I fear it might not be enough for the new DCS
Yes, its an old card, though I'm mainly a strategy gamer so its OK for about 90% of what I play. It does get pushed on flight sims & road race games however (though it does keep the room warm) so I've traded it in for a GTX 750 Ti which gets me a few years further along the graphics path. I'll let you know how I get on with CoD.
Thanks for the offer Jarhead but I think the postage would kill it.
Yes - new card fitted, Spitfire airborne! :)

nvm. I see its already covered over in the IL-2 Sturmovik: Battle of Stalingrad thread :-[
