I dont try a zero hour expansion pack but i should. Then i post here what was happen ok ?
has it works for anybody yet?
I have Zero Hour installed. It works under compatability mode, but the textures are screwed. All of the ground is one colour, but units and buildings are fine.
Anyone any idea how to fix this? I have the latest drivers installed.
ok, so i'm not sure if this is active anymore or what, but i keep getting the same error message no matter what i do to it, it stops responding and then i get game.dat is not working.
1. Fixed the serious error message by creating the Options.ini file and placing in Command and Conquer General Zero Hour directory under User\Documents not under Programs of course. Make sure you go to folder options and see file extensions. You will need to ensure there is no .txt after the .ini.
2. Then I did the application shortcut changes for administrator, XP 2 compatible, and maximize on the short cut tab, etc. that others have suggested.
3. Then I received the make sure you have Directx 8.1 higher and compatible video card. Victory – got rid of the serious error message which meant it was probably a driver issue now.
4. I returned an ATI/Radeon card and bought a GE Force card that has Windows 7 drivers along with Nvidia chipset. I updated the video card driver with the latest drivers.
5. I then fired up Zero Hour and it worked!! Works brilliant and very fast!! Took on two hard armies and had a body count of 1,741…
6. So not sure the new video card solved the problem but pretty sure it is not Windows 7 or the embedded Directx 11 rather getting the Generals to accept the XP compatible mode and finding the options.ini in the Zero Hour directory not Generals\Data as suggested in other posts.
Good luck and thanks to everyone on the various boards for the help.
just trying to get zerohour to work, but the serious message always comes up, i have window 7, 64 bit operating system, dooubt if it would ever work
can i do the same thing for my window 7 ultimate 64-bit?
i am running windows 7 home premium x64 and all i had to do was patch the game and run in compatability mode for windows xp service pack 2. my only complaint is that the game runns smoothly and then all the sudden it will go into wat can only be described as "slide show" gameplay. anyone know y? i looked around for a solution and people say that its a problem with the engine and that its cuz of 2 many ai. but it even does it when i tested it against one easy army
