Cobra5

In mission 04, Coltan Blues, after I beat the mission it simply fades to black, and then nothing happens. I've tried restarting the mission several times, I've tried lowering my graphics, closing all background applications (Steam, skype...) but it always follows that exact behavior- After beating the mission it fades to black and nothing happens. This is on Operation Arrowhead only. No mods, I have ARMAII but its not installed. Intel Core2 Duo (3ghz) Nvidia GTX470 4GB RAM

I am sorry for missing your post, I did not see it :( Anyway, it says I have version 1.57.76815 I am sorry for not saying that I have already patched (silly of me...) but no, it is not fixed in a patch it seems :(

Um So I guess there is no-one that knows of a fix then... lol I will just have to skip this mission I suppose. I have searched other forums and this is a common problem, or at least other people have it, but there are no solutions I can find... So far I am very disappointing at how buggy this game is. The first mission took me four tries to get it to work... my squad keeps laying down in the open, advancing one foot, and laying down again... for 45 minutes... I restart and they do the same thing... I restart and we advance to the village, but when we clear it, the objective does not complete and my squad just stands in one place waiting forever... TBH I wish I did not purchase it... no offense :( it would be a truly fantastic game if it worked.

No, as I said in my opening post.

It is only this mission (04: Coltan Blues). I see the point of cheating if it let's me advance, when the game is broken. If the game worked, I would not think to cheat either. Editor is cool but I would like to play this campaign... not make my own... Its sad I am expected to finish building a game myself that I already paid for :(

I must Alt+F4 to exit the game. It fades to black as if it was scripted to do so (IE a gentle fade, not just a crash to black screen). And in fact if I hit Alt+F4 it stops and says "Saving Game" or "quitting..." on the screen, as if the game is still running fine. However after fading to black nothing happens, no matter how long I wait, the screen just stays black. Besides alt+F4, AltCtrlDel or other such commands, there is no response (Esc does not bring up the menu for example). This occurs after shooting down the enemy jets. If I try to load that save game it also just goes right to the black screen and stays there forever. I can "revert" and play the mission over and over but cannot advance past that point. Is there a cheat to force the mission to win? I already beat it, it just won't let me advance... [edit]: Before it comes up, yes, I updated my video drivers.
