I managed to fix this by reinstalling the game. Ignore above.

Is there another fix other than reinstalling the game? After the update my game won't start. I click play in Steam and the pop-up menu for the game comes up with the Swifter than Eagles artwork but when I click the Play Game button nothing happens. I noticed an error file that mentions the dbghelp.dll file but I don't get any errors when trying to start, it just never starts.

Best email support@slitherine.co.uk

But before you do that, try restarting your computer. (In case there are any FOG background processes still running, which will prevent the game from starting)

Thank you I will email them. Computer restart didn't fix it.

My bad as well, I posted this in the wrong forum. It was FOG Med that I had the issue with dll. With fog II I am trying to install the new update so I can install Swifter than Eagles. The auto link took me to page not found but I have gone to 'my page' to try now but it must be busy as no progress yet. Only posting for info in case others have same issue. Sure it will get there.
