Hi, I play DoD via Steam on my win7 64-bit. Every time I click on the "start game" button from the launcher, apart from the last game configurations, DoD delete my current last.txt and replace it with a new different file (maybe an old game synchronized in steam cloud). I tried the -nukesteamcloud way from the cmd and it works. I can quit and replay and my last.txt is still there. But when i try to play DoD via Steam i get the same issue and I can't sync that file in any way.
If you don't use steamcloud for everyday use, just add the -nukesteamcloud to the steam game launch options (right click the game in the library) so it will do the same thing when ran through steam.
If I wanted to do that I had already done. I was only hoping for a better way, cause, you know... that's really not a solution ^^'
Hm, well if I'm understanding you right, you can try to delete your current last.txt, then -nukesteamcloud once (through steam) and see if it holds. I'm not sure what you can do, otherwise.
