Games crashes on startup since 1.03

Worked fine in 1.02 and before that (even in beta) but now I get a minidump whenever I start the game before I can even see the startup movie or anything else.

Same problem for me :-(
Is the dump of any help? What should I do *panic*


Edit: Actuallay I figured out what to do: Just remove my custom map which seems to have crashed the game. My bad.

No custom maps for me, and the same problem.

Opens up a black "window" and never starts.

I've got this problem too, but it was happening before the patch too...I get a dump error...don't know if that helps.

Sounds like directx problem to me.

Try reinstalling directX.

Do you have a mod which you told to load at startup?
