Good morning all,

for a day, IL2 refuses to start:
I run it from steam, the game starts, but the 1st loading "page" does not appear. mods are disabled, my drivers are up to date. I had previously activated the mods that I had then deactivated, that's where the problem started. I checked the steam files, recovered the missing ones, nothing...

 

I completely reinstalled the game, it started once, then nothing. I upscale my game in 2K on a 1080p, but no worries with other "upscaled" games... has anyone ever had this problem?

 

everything I find on the various forums concerns a bug, but for the highest resolution and graphics (4K), except, I'm in 2K upscaled, and I haven't changed these parameters for at least more than 6 months. ..

Try deleting your startup.cfg file in the data folder, could be corrupted.  It will automatically build a new one with default settings.  If you want to save your old setting cut and paste it somewhere safe and use it to help reset the new one.

@moustache, I will support what @[CPT]Crunch said, start with startup.cfg

thank you for the advice @[CPT] Crunch... I just modified line 34 "fullscreen", it allowed me to play again, but impossible to upscale, it still bugs... (which is quite annoying, the game being much better in 2K, especially for antialiasing and flickering)...
