Blank background when starting a scenario

[F4rewell]

Hey I just bought the game since I saw it was on sale and as I like the WDS games I thought this will be fun. However once I start a scenario or campaign I see the UI and hear the sounds just fine, but the background/map is basically blank.

I uploaded a screenshot so you know what I mean: https://imgur.com/a/FE8tMxM

Does anyone know a fix for this? I searched the forums and there are/were issues of the game not starting because a Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Update was needed, but the game is starting for me...I just dont see anything lol.

Did you install the Updates?

Ideally, you'll want to install the base game, then 2.02 and then the 2.04 BETA.

Let me know if that's the case.
