Greetings,
I supported Battletech before it was released. Played when it was released and completed the campaign in a good 60hrs and no problems.
Since then, ive waited for all the DLC to come out (to finish the game) and have a career playthrough... and the game wont work.
It will not allow video & graphic setting changes on the UI and will not save them. If you change any settings in the settings menus, the actual settings themselves will go black.. and when you try to return to the main menu a notification will popup saying there are "unsaved changes, would you like to discard"... and nomatter what you do, the game will not return to the main menu.
I thought the game just doesnt like 4k rez, as it keeps launching in 12800x1020 or x720 (changes) but it doesnt want to change res, even to higher 1080p but sub 4k resolutions.
Disabling High Quality UI doesnt help either (wont work, see the save-settings-bug above).
The language and date pulldown menus are also blank, although the orange ticks remain.
If i roll back to v1.2.1, everything works fine but 1.8.1 and 1.9.1 will not work at all.
I havent rolled back to OTHER updates, as i want to play the updated game!
... and if i just start a new campaign or new career from the menu, it infinitely loads
launching from the BattletechLauncher.exe in the local files solves no problems regardless of settings selected.
Deleting my old steamcloud savegames and disabling cloudsync for the game also doesnt do anything (was thinking my old saves were bugging the new version).
I have also performed a 'clean install', removing all data from user/appdata, steam directories and regedit.exe keys.
I have run out of options and forum-searches to possible solutions to why the game will not run as intended.
Can anyone help
Ive been waiting to play all the DLC and now i have them (and the time), the game wont play :*(
EDIT: Ive also tried running the .exe as Admin and in compatability modes and these dont work either
Also have disabled Steam Overlay UI and SteamVR
ADDENDUM: Ive installed Battletech using the Paradox Launcher and it works fine, however, the Steam version is still borked
