Game Map no longer showing (since Windows update)

Post by PeterStep »

Morning,

Have uninstalled and reinstalled FCSS but same outcome - suspect Windows is the culprit but possible others will encounter this too. My system is

Device name ASUS

Installed RAM 8.00 GB
Device ID 12A8E8DE-71F0-4E77-A0C1-0DB2A9C7DE66
Product ID 00325-80077-09260-AAOEM
System type 64-bit operating system, x64-based processor
Pen and touch No pen or touch input is available for this display

Edition Windows 10 Home
Version 22H2
Installed on ‎06/‎10/‎2020
OS build 19045.2251

Can you offer any help before I do a system restore to see if tat clears it?

Thanks

Peter

Check fire - in the 10 mins it took to create the post the map has finally appeared so it looks like a slow load. I will restart a few times today to see if it repeats.

Keep us posted. Do the game splash and menu screens come up okay? Is your map full-screen or windowed? Thanks.
OTS is looking forward to Southern Storm getting released!
