(remember Dynamix? Aces of the Pacific? bought it, off the shelf

hmmm bad choices for the poll, runs fine for me from first install.

No, really, it did. Boxed version. Photos available for non believers.

I turned down the ground detail, as i have for every flight sim ive EVER had due to the baggage it represents. I just dont care about the ground.

Im too fixed on the aircraft in the clouds.

I dont need the ground dragging my system down.

I have had a playable, if not completely perfect, game from day one.

system stats available to those that request, not private or anything, just i havent bothered so far, and they are NOTHING special.

I turn all useless shite off, every stupid gimmick microsoft expects me to pay for. I used to be a unix / linux admin so window crap does NOT impress me, and i wont tolerate stupid flashy worthless shit they keep telling me i need.

I run my machine on what it needs to support the games i start, everything else is rubbish.

So, in summary, i've had no troubles from day one.

Well, I have to say mine´s running really good.

Over water 70 up to (sometimes) 90 fps, over land 40 to 70 (either if I´m sitting in the plane or watching it from outside) and over big cities like London between 20 and 40 fps.

And now please don´t hit me *gg*
I´ve been building a misison with about 100 planes and it is playable.

*in general*

maybe some system specs would help?

install location?

installed as Administrator?

all related apps installed as Administrator, etc?

Are you looking for a total number of people that can't run the game, or a percentage? Because if you're after a percentage, there's not poll option for those of us that are running the game without problems.

It's too late to change the poll, even if I could. 90 people already voted.

Game won't start, error message: Launcher has stopped working

running most recent patch on a:
q8400
HD6870 1gb
4gb Ram

was working before the patch, but it just... stopped working, not sure if it is due to the patch or if that was just a coincidence.

It allways did run; now with the new patch it runs nearly perfectly. Only some simulation problems no game engine problems.

Doesn't work at all. All I can get is freezed half picture of sky and black screen under it. Nothing more.

I don't like this situation at all!

Check game files integrity in Steam game properties, reinstall .Net and directx, clear shaders cache in docs folder. Try reducing resolution to minimum first to isolate the problem.

There are plenty of solutions in Technical section of the forums.

Check a guide in my sig btw.

Check game files integrity in Steam game properties, clear shaders cache in docs folder. If it does not help then it is not a patch issue. Search forums for "Launcher has stopped working"
