Yes, i'm sure.
In our small community all problems (like described by tAKticool) was ALWAYS caused from wrong installation -no matter which version of DW. I know players with Steam, original CD, CD from paper magazine, and pirated CD images.

Mostly they forgot "only 1 step" like:
1) doesn't install patch 1.04 before RA
2) installation on previous RA ("updating" - this causes many bugs)
3) they forgot run additional *.bat program from patches to RA (mostly in Graphics directory)
4) running installation process on OS partition without admin rights
5) running cmputil instead correct *.bat file (part of RA patch)


Sometime even installation on "not deleted" directory from previous version DW+RA causes problems

Of course most players doesn't read anything: readme files, weapon manual, editor manual, USNI ref. (in game) etc. They prefer ask here, on subsim forum or RedRodgers forum for every single thing (ususaly very easy for checking)
