  1. Your GeForce driver should automatically update, unless you've disabled the auto-update. You can also manually update it at http://www.geforce.com/drivers. But can you be more specific: Does it happen... always around 5 mins into the game or only when you start killing one of your enemies? all the time? only on Sedona? against everyone? happen in single player skirmish mode? Has this always happened or only recently? If recently; what did you change/update just before this started happening? Make sure you're running the game in Win 7/XP compatibility mode, if not already.
  2. I meant for the next tourny. But yeah, 'must be streamed/recorded' is a good rule. @whoeverisorgnizingnexttourny - if you don't mind, can you start the next one sometime soon, otherwise I'll forget all about it and miss out . Maybe just cancel this one since it doesn't seem to be going well, from what I've read above .
  3. If the matches are streamed, or at least most of it, I'll donate $100 for the prize money.
  4. I'm not sure I understand you; so you can hear all the RA2 unit voices and sound effects, but not the YR ones? What are your installing from (Origin, TFD, xwis, iso)? Make sure your sound and voice volumes aren't muted in the Options menu.
  5. You've probably already tried all these, but it's all I can think of: make sure your mouse driver is updated - http://www.razersupport.com/gaming-mice/razer-taipan try a different usb port (preferably usb 2.0 because it's a fairly old game) if you've remapped any of your mouse buttons, reset it all back to default (but first make sure your button remaps have been saved) Start YR in admin mode Start Razor Synapse in admin mode use a different mouse (buy a cheap $10 one if you have to)
  6. @Humble Nice quickmatch client, too bad you don't have the expertise to make it actually work So it's up to the big man himself to kick things off then? @hifi So how much does it take to get you out of bed (so to speak)? I know you haven't done anything for CnCNet for money (to my knowledge anyway), but there's really nothing else I/we can send through these copper-wires, fiber-optics or radio-waves that's worth much. Or we can send you our LOVE! hahaha... that's so corny. I'm not gay. A little off-topic: @All - It might be a good idea if you (not just staff but every contributing member) added your PayPal / Kickstarter / Patreon... etc. link in your sig in case others want to show their appreciation for your client, site updates, new maps, mission compilations, patches... or whatever. Even 5, 10 bucks here and there all adds up. Maybe we can have our own little CnCNet economy going.
  7. @Grant So are you able to make this much-needed quickmatch server thingy, or learn how to do it? Because the way I see it; you guys (CnCNet team) only have to read another chapter or two of the advanced computer books to be able to do these kind of things, whereas the rest of us are still only up to page 1 of the 'Programming for Dummies' book . I'll pay you for your time, just like the others have offered in topic. Some people may have to sell more oranges and wipe wind-shields, I'll have to shine a few extra shoes, but just name your price and we can work something out.
  8. Cool. Can you also add Marko's stream if you get a chance: https://www.twitch.tv/omituinen
  9. Is there another link to the list of streamers because this one doesn't seem to work anymore.
  10. If I'm understanding correctly, and probably not, this 'quickmatch server' or 'quickmatch protocol specification' is NOT in Grant's list? I thought this was included in number '1. API to handle game results, and accounts.' I'm totally lost now. Maybe a number 5 should be added to the list
  11. Ok, so you're able to create the quickmatch(qm) client as well as integrate it with the main game client. But can the qm client be created FIRST, and then afterwards the rest of the qm system? If so, how much $$$ will it take to get things rolling? We can talk in private if you prefer. Long story short: QM Client + Integration with Game Client(s) = $(insert dollar figure here)
  12. Is this one of those 1000 apm maps? I still can't do that frikkin gold challenge one
  13. I did CS a while back and if I remember correctly, reverse engineering was never taught (maybe it's changed now though, I'm not sure, but I doubt it). But hey, maybe some of them do/study it in their spare time so... why not! But I think you should ask the CnCNet team for permission first.
  14. Hifi should do it just to piss Olaf off (jst kidding, Olaf's alright). What about the rest of the CnCNet team? I'm sure Nyerguds, FunkyFr3sh or Rampastring could look into the YR code (matrix-style ) and reverse the hell out of it if they wanted to, and make bots that match players and randomize maps and so on, or some other solution. I'm aware I'm making it sound a lot easier than it is, but if they wanted to do it, from what we've seen around here, they more than likely can. I'll even match the above offer and add another $400usd to it ffs ... seriously. So any takers? $800usd can make your wife/girlfriend/(boyfriend?) very happy; an expensive date, or new shoes, or jewelry, or another Louis fucking Vuitton wallet...
  15. Cannabischat.net is a site for people who like the green stuff (I'm not talking about tiberium). They smoke together in front of their web cams and talk about whatever I was just logged on there and they seemed pretty cool. Just don't view their web cam unless yours is also turned on, they don't seem to like it, bad ethics apparently .
  16. All NAVAL units on LAND maps (except for amphibious ones), and all LAND-based units on water maps. And also DEAD units, you can't really do much with them. Campaign - units you have to rescue such as Dr. Mobious, Einstein, Tratos... Multiplayer - The Medic maybe? At least the Technician has a gun, and is free!
  17. Grant won't do it because he doesn't want to be the one responsible for killing xwis.net
  18. Do you have both integrated graphics and dedicated graphics? Also, you'll need both RA2 AND YR installed for the CnCNet Launcher to work.
  19. You can no longer install from original RA2/YR disks, but this guide will help you get around this: http://forums.cncnz.com/topic/19497-original-ra2yr-cds-vs-windows-10/?do=findComment&comment=225594
  20. Very nice! Another solution to add to my library . Well, I'd like to think we all contributed to lead to that solution But regardless... ENJOY!!
  21. So... does YR actually work now?
  22. I do but I've never had to, and frankly I'm afraid to try it On my Radeon (Crimson) settings, which is the same as yours, or similar: Preferences -> Radeon Additional Settings -> My Digital Flat Panels -> Custom Resolutions. Try it at your own risk, then let us know if it worked! What about the game itself (YR)?
  23. Sorry buddy, either constantly bug Rampastring^ everyday to modify the YR menu, or use another monitor/screen that is capable of the 800 x 600 screen resolution.
  24. YR is indeed playable at that resolution, and much higher too, but only while actually in-game (with all the tanks, planes and so on), but not at the MENU. RA2 has no problems, which is why you've been able to play it. I've been able to play them at 2560x1440, but not any higher for some reason (I've been trying to play at 4K resolution, but both games keep crashing when I try to go higher than 1440p ), but that's another story. The problem isn't that RA2/YR can't be played on a full HD monitor at higher screen resolutions, the problem is the MENU for YR, which is unfortunately FIXED at 800 x 600 resolution. Take a look at my display settings: This is the entire range of my tv screen's capability. It is currently set to 1080p (or Full HD). I can set it from a low resolution, all the way up to 4k (4096 x 2160), and everything in between, mostly. Notice how even though my screen can go up to a high 4k, it can also go all the way down to a low 800 x 600, which is what is required for the YR menu. If you check your display settings, yours will more than likely only have 1024 x 768 at the bottom, which is the LOWEST it is capable of, but not low enough to play YR. Keep in mind that these games are very old and were developed at a time when full HD monitors weren't around. To my knowledge, it is unfortunate that up to now nobody has been able to resize the YR menu
  25. I think this is your problem right here: 'LOWEST'. The game is trying to set itself to 800x600 which is below the limits of your monitor. Try another monitor, even your tv for now just to see if it works.
