Where did you download strand from?

I believe the map can be installed in either Day of Defeat Source/dod/maps or Day of Defeat Source/dod/downloads/maps. If you have it installed in one directory try switching it over.

Another thing you could try is to back up your custom content for dods, remove it and launch the game vanilla.

I just tried both .bsp files that are linked in the logistics office and they work fine for me.

Have you always experienced this issue with Strand? Or has it only started happening recently?

Try running DOD:S vanilla without any custom content, see if you have any luck with that. You can back up your custom content so you won't lose any of it. If you need any assistance doing this feel free to steam message myself.

Some information on your system might be helpful. Steven had the same type of problem with his old system. it was a dual core processor and an old graphics card. When he replaced his graphics card, it stopped. Has it done this since DOD was installed the first time, or did it start later? Please provide the following info:

Processor:

Ram:

Operating System:

Graphics card:

Hard Drive w/ memory used and memory available:

Direct X version:

It is a sony vaio laptop.

I have never had that map work for me.

Lt.Col Yamagata, I did download the map from the unit server.

I would double check to be sure. That error is thrown when the file is not found or it is corrupt.

If someone could do this on their working map, that would be neat. If not, I'll do it with mine when I get home.

Just for reference, here is what a download of the map looks like on my work computer:

I do not know where you guys are finding that information for the map file. this what i did I uninstalled and re-installed Dods per Bradley. This made all of the previously installed maps disappear. I then down loaded the 1st MRB map pack out of the logistics office. I placed all of the maps in my downloads/map file. All of the maps work except Strand. With your last comment I do not know what you are looking for, Iam not that computer savvy. I need a detailed list of steps of how to get what you are looking for.

    • jelly3384's application for Enlistment Form Questions Name you wish to use and Age: (Our unit uses realistic names, this does not have to be your real name) Pigeon, 16 Platform Type Epic Games Store Steam ID (Use 17 Digit SteamID 64 / PC Game Pass Account Username): Pigeon_theft   Do you have a microphone? Yes   Which game title are you applying for? Hell Let Loose   If you've selected Hell Let Loose, do you understand that this game is currently not cross platform capable and only PC players currently may apply? ( Steam or PC Game Pass) Yes   Why do you wish to join the 1st Marine Raiders? I've played BFV and milsimed in it, and it was a lot more fun when I milsimed. and I enjoy playing HLL, so I think it is going to be more fun when I join.   Did any of our current members play a part in you enlisting? If so, who? If none, how did you learn about us: I found you guys from a website called disboard when looking for HLL milsim groups to join.   This unit offers more than just a place to play games with each other, do you have any online skills you think would be useful? no   Do you have any Leadership experience that you think will be helpful? I'm not sure if it will be helpfull,but I used to be in BFV milsim groups and in my last one I got to [E-7] out of [E-1] to [O-8], so I was a NCO and I helped the officers with whatever they needed doing, weather it was assisting with training, settling disputes or helping them decide what was appropriate disciplinary action. And when we were in combat I was usually assigned to lead my own squad.   Have you ever been in a realism unit before, and if so, which unit was it? yes. I was in quite a few BFV milsim groups, although I was only in one at any given time. unfortunately, I have left the discord servers and I do not remember the names of them. if you would like, I could probably give a reference to someone who was an officer in most of the groups I was in.   By posting this Enlistment form, I acknowledge the instructions completely, declare that I am 16 years old or older, and agree that I have and will follow server and unit rules maturely and respectfully or face immediate rejection.
