Q: How Do I Trouble Shoot Win XP

Board Guest 1880563 Guest Posts: 1 From The Original WarZone 2100 Forums #22 Aug 01, 04 - 4:43 PM I can't seem to uninstall that 'patch'. If I look, it's in add/remove programs, but there's no button to remove it. And when I look in my Windows folder, its corresponding folder isn't there either. Any ideas? Oh, and also, I'll explain my problem in detail. No matter what I do, it will open up the game and then minimize it once I click. If I remaximise it in any mode but software, it will just go back to desktop when I click. In software it works fine. Once I start a new campaign, and the game actually starts, I'll hear "Power resource" and then the game just quits. I tried running it in compatibility mode for 2000 (I'm using XP) and that extended the life a bit. About 30 seconds it in just killed itself for no reason.

Thankyou! sometimes its right in front of your damn eyes and you cant see it... forgot in all this time to advise that...but - when i do i get looked at as if i am an alien and the words " i am an expert - i know what i am doing" invariably come out.... so there ya have it... please let me know if this works - will add it to the Docs - which by the way can be had here... http://www.wz2100.de/ |

quote:I've also had this problem. try pressing "switch to" in the task manager, sometimes works. This hasn't happened for me much, only once or twice. Warzone can actually be closed normally, in which case it will ask you if you "really want to quit", then close immediately. quote: "path-to-exe" -d3d -1024 -1152 -1280 -1600 (i think I did this, once) ever try -imacheatingscallywagger ?
Stikka - 17-10-2003 at 07:04 PM Cheers for the suggestion, tried it and failed. Rebooted cold and
warm repeatedly and still no joy. Switch to restores the game from
toolbar, but still mouse function to select the menu items fails. most
frustrating Tim - 17-10-2003 at 07:06 PM Try again, it always works for me. Kevin - 17-10-2003 at 07:12 PM Go yell at Microsoft, then sign the petition for the source code Stikka - 17-10-2003 at 07:54 PM Thanks Tim, but I have spent about 5 hours in total trying
different settings and no joy. The frustrating part is it was working
perfectly until Friday. |

Q: How do i... Take a screen Shot with out a 3d card? A: Simply use the PrtScrn / SysRq button on your keyboard - after depressing this key - get out of the game either by quitting normal or using the windows logo key ( if you have it on your keyboard...) open up MS paint or your favorite graphics program - right click and choose the paste function - dont forget to save as ( name the pic and extension you want to use ie: jpg/gif/bmp/whatever...) Now you can add text or enhance the pic to display better - then post or add to your collection... By LAV_Coyote25 |

Q:
Why have Util(s) or Mod(s) ruined my WZ2100! |
| Q:
Why do Maps (.wdg) not show up in game menu I downloaded "RedDawn" and a few other maps that don't show up in the games map menu. AcidLake showed up no problem, but RedDawn, et. al., do not. A: 1. you can only have 3 tabs of maps - at any time. 2. red dawn I believe is not only a map but a mod as well and there are a couple of others that fit this description as well - reflyingin and bootcamp - and I believe there is a few more but I can not remember which ones... 3. with these mod/maps - ensure that you have only those enabled ( one at a time) ( either use warzone starter or put all other mods in another folder away from the root folder of warzone 2100) also note that you can only have that map/mod that you want to play active ( in the root directory) 4. the reason ( and I am not positive of this) all those mod/maps may not show up if you have them active all at the same time, is, conflicting mods...

Q: How Do I - 1.11 patch Trouble Shooting...
I
have been having problems trying to get the patch 1.11 to load up
properly. Every time I try to load the patch or execute it, it has an
error saying "Get Load v1.0 " or something like that. What can
I do to get the Patch 1.11 to load properly if I keep getting that v1.0
player file and the rest of them not working properly? As with all things - caution is advised when dealing with any suggestions - READ several times - THEN do...
Keep in mind that 1.11 is not used in multiplayer for internet games ( Gamespy)
Warning!! back up any mods or maps that you wish to keep BEFORE you delete the pumpkin file folder. |
