lol what difference does it make if i run it from a shortcut or click on the .exe? A shortcut just points torwards the .exe and executes the .exe Wink
But YEP tired it. Im just not getting any config files what so ever, maby because my "Local Settings" folder is actually called "Lokala Inställningar", maby the game cant handle the letter "ä"?

Ill try to reinstall but i doubt it will change, its been that way in beta 20 too.
Did you guys install it to its default location btw? Cuz i didnt.
Would appreciate if someone could name what the folder is supposed to be called and like upload their config file to rapidshare so i can transplant it to my comp ^^


The special characters may very well be a reson for the game not running correctly. Try creating a profile with using just the regular english alphabet, and install / run the game from that user. Maybe it will work.

Btw: my previous post about how/where the settings are located were not aimed at those who know where it is, but instead at those who were looking in the game folder, messing with lua/scd files, etc.

I will ask this again, how can I change the Screen Refresh Rate from 60 to 75+???

My eyes are bleeding (part 2)


Buy a TFT, and you'll not have your eyes bleed out from refresh rate. If yer using a CRT, then my ansewer is: i have no fckin clue how you could set it to a higher refresh rate.

tip: you could play in windowed mode. As if you are playing like that, the windows setting regulates the refresh rate.

In the nvidia driver from a year ago, you could set the refresh rate manualy for every resolution.
Since that stupid new menu, I don't find anything.
Nvidia drivers are getting bigger and bigger but not better.

So everyone with a CRT playing this game, has the same problems as I have.
Bleeding eyes??

WTF?

Can anyone tell me how to make this game run on a Radeon 9250 DX8.1 card? Whenever we start this game up there's an error saying need PS2.0.

I already gave my friend my game.pref with all the settings lowered but it didnt help. When he goes windowed he gets the same thing. What can he do?

Alot of 9200 users are getting this now since 2.7, there must be an 8.1 mode if they played in 2.0.

I guess you just can't run it. My guess would be it requires at least the 2.0 version of pixel shaders. To be honest, considering that the game is scheduled for release in 2007, i wouldnt expect it to run on cards that do not support DX9.

After all, we are almost at DX10. My guess would be that for the really big battles, you will need a decent (not older than a year) PC and a decent (late DX9, pref DX10) card.

We are talking about thousands of units here after all. Even without AIs, thats a lot of processing power required.

TFT is a variant of the LCD display. It stands for Thin-Film Transistor technology.

It completely changes the graphics for me, I get tons more detail and better special effects. As you can see when it's installing, it does update both the textures and the models.

I have just played against the computer, after 30min, when he has got shields, the framerate drops spectacular.
I have build 2.0, is this improved in build 2.7?

I guess when the details are higher the game runs slower, or not?

Yep, the FPS are a fair bit slower for me after applying the patch, it looks much better too though so it's not unexpected.

The only way i've beaten the computer is having a 'Turtle' AI on my side to act as a barrier, then I can build up in peace until I can nuke the bastard. Either that or build the giant artillery cannons and pummel him from across the other side of the map! Very Happy

I have an Athlon X2 3800+ with 2gb of ram and a X1600 Pro with a CRT monitor and I get no lag except when we reach around a thousand units and I have no refresh rate problem.

this is a beta and it's normal to get problems.


As for myself, I just couldn't launch any Nuclear warhead with the Stonager, anyone had that problem?

There is talk of possible a sound related bug causing massive framedrops after 10-20 mins time, some who turns audio off ingame, gets a huge speedboost, from 5FPS to 60FPS. Those with this problem, try this, also try running the game with the "/nosound" command.

If it clearly helps, post your specs, I'll post it at the beta forum if you dont have access so you guys can help nail this bug Cool

Here's a good hamachi network if anyone wants to play. I've gotten a few good games on there.
Remember that you only need to join _ONE_ network as they are all linked together.

Oh and I played a game before with above 300 ping and I didn't even notice any lag... So far the netcode seems brilliant.

However, I miss some units from TA.. I didn't see any mobile radar jammers nor mobile radars; snipers and flamethrowers; any cloaked unit and no suicide units. There weren't any mines either.

But perhaps I just didn't search well enough... Otherwise I love the game and the structure linking is just brilliant and improves base building a lot, the upgrades for the commander are sweet too.

lol why do you ppl have such problems with the framerate? may be a very cpu-heavy game i think, like the total war series (well at least the new ones )
try the 91.47 drivers if u are running nvidia, runs supersmooth here, except with more than 5 ai's

First of all, it's a beta and there's bound to be odd performance issues. Secondly, the AI seems a bit weird as of now. After playing for quite a while against the AI the game turned into a slideshow. But against another human the framerate didn't deteriorate.
