Hi – excellent game, looking forward to a Normandy version
I have the Command Ops Core Engine and the Highway to the Reich module. The game crashes 20-30 seconds into the game, more or less every time, after it seems to load up completely normally.
Downloaded it from LandL publishing and it was put into my C:drive. And it worked – played it for a couple of hours two evenings in a row. Then loaded it up again and got error messages “The item ‘CmdOps.exe’ that this shortcut cut refers to has been changed or moved, so this shortcut will no longer work properly. Do you want to delete this shortcut, yes or no?” So not possible to start the game at all. (Incidentally, how do you start the game without a shortcut!?).
As what I thought was a clever alternative, I instead downloaded the game through Steam with the Steam key. I get two alternating, equally unsatisfactory, outcomes. The first says ready to launch - play game. All seems to download completely. Try to play the game – I can choose a scenario, start the game, issue orders all fine. But 20-30 seconds or so into the game the game screen just vanishes without sound, sign or error message. Nothing. I am left staring at my Steam screen. The second outcome when I try to play on Steam gives me an error message:
"An error occurred while updating Command Ops 2 (missing executable) C:\Prog Files...\Command Ops 2\CmdOps.exe"
I have been through the standard Steam error suggestions, verify game/cache etc.
Amidst all this frustration, the game has occasionally worked - I have played on 3-4 separate days for a few hours each. This might be straight after I have done an un-install/re-install but I have just now done another un-install/re-install and the errors are the same. Each time I have wrongly assumed that the problem has solved itself. I have un-installed and re-installed the game about four times.
Grateful for any thoughts - but please express anything technical in simple terms .
Cheers
Tim
