This Game Does Not Work!

CANTPLAY1 · Guest

For some reason trying all options in different ways this game will NOT WORK.

Windows 7, quad core hyperthreaded 4 gb vram and 16 gigs of ram and this game does not work.

Every time I hit the Options button the game stalls out. Its unplayable.

Does this happen with all renderer options? Both in full-screen and windowed mode?

I have the same issue. If I want to play I have to use the IE-DDRAW just for the menus to work and then I cant play due to multiple monitor bug with a windowed game Sad

I've never tried using multiple monitors, so I don't know if and how it's bugged, but can't you just play with a single monitor instead?

need second monitor to monitor OBS when streaming/recording so no. its not really an issue though I can get around that.

My issue primarily is that I cannot fullscreen the game without the menus glitching. I have to alt tab or ctrl alt delete everytime I open the menu and then rinse repeat everytime I choose a new option

Its really annoyin. the only work around I have found is to use game companion to borderless fullscreen IE-DDRAW but that leaves me with glitchy mess at bottom of screen about the size of the start menu/taskbar

What is your operating system? What happens if you try to play the game using the TS-DDRAW renderer?

Lord_Dweedle: Looks like renderer problems not dual display. Can't you use autohide taskbar?

Also there is a few seconds delay on the first run after PC reboot with the latest 1.1325/1327 versions.

During that time the client checks for file integrity, so it's normal. The reason why it doesn't happen on subsequent runs is Windows' Prefetcher. It has actually happened always (ever since DTA 1.11's release back in 2011), although the delay naturally gets more noticeable as the size of the mod grows.

Looks like the delay has increased several folds for the first load to the main menu between 1294 and 1327
and it has become noticeable.
