Hi guys!
I'm from Germany so please excuse my english.
I played AHD for hundreds of hours without any problems and now as i got HoD i couldn't get this started.
first: it didn't even start. --> erasing the mapcache in two folders, starting just the v2game without launcher. done.
some tbb.dll and his bros were missing. --> found them in the direction of my roommate, copied aaand done.
game started.
mapinit crashed. --> erasing the whole content of the VicII folder in documents. done. (don't erase the settings.txt, just the three folders inside)
mapinit worked.
the mainmenu appeared at last. i can change settings and do stuff.
starting a singleplayer game, choosing any nation, doesn't work. game crashes as soon as i push the start-button on the right. (same for tutorials)

My Sys-Infos are:
Intel Core i7 3930K
32GB DDR3-1600
XFX Radeon HD7970 3GB
Win7 64bit SP1 latest
.net 4.5.1
latest catalyst (just installed)
DirectX refreshed during HoD install

can someone please help me???
