cncwarlord Posted June 4, 2010 Share Posted June 4, 2010 I have my cnc generals zero hours updated to 1.04, installed the latest version of the mod, but whenever I play it, as soon as I build a powerplant, the game stops rendering whenever the powerplant is in sight, could this have to do with the fact that i'm running windows 7 64 bit? or is the game not compatable with the Nvidia Gforce 310m graphics card I have perhaps?

Ferret Posted June 4, 2010 Share Posted June 4, 2010 I've never heard that graphics card before but I know that TDR works just fine on Windows 7 64-bit. What I would try first is play the game at lowest settings. You can turn the graphics down to the lowest when you start the game through the launcher.

cncwarlord Posted June 4, 2010 Author Share Posted June 4, 2010 I've tried the lowest graphics settings, as well as putting the game in compatibility mode for Windows XP sp2-3, and Vista, none of which helped. Its a very strange problem I've never encountered with command and conquer before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ferret Posted June 4, 2010 Share Posted June 4, 2010 Just try setting the game to "Windows XP" compatibility mode. When I had Windows 7 64-bit I did not have to set compatibility mode. Also, is there any way you can post a screenshot? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cncwarlord Posted June 4, 2010 Author Share Posted June 4, 2010 I'm afraid That isnt an option, there is only the options for Service pack 2, and service pack 3 compatibility, and neither of those options help the issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cncwarlord Posted June 5, 2010 Author Share Posted June 5, 2010 This is what the game displays after I build the powerplant, it occasionally flickers, showing the actual gameplay going on, but for the most part its just blacked out, as if theres nothing there to render.

cncwarlord Posted June 23, 2010 Author Share Posted June 23, 2010 Turning shader 2.0 off doesn't make a difference, I've made sure that my drivers are fully updated, as well as updated all games in my TFD to there newest versions respectively, this isn't an issue of graphics settings. My graphics card the 310m is a fully capable graphics card, though it isnt the most powerful. The cards specs are as follows Manufacturer NVIDIA Series GeForce 310M Codename N11M-GE1 Pipelines 16 - unified Core Speed * 625 MHz Shader Speed * 1530 MHz Memory Speed * 800 MHz Memory Bus Width 64 Bit Memory Type GDDR3, DDR3 Max. Amount of Memory 512 MB Shared Memory no DirectX DirectX 10.1, Shader 4.1 technology 40 nm Features DirectX Compute Support (Windows 7), CUDA, OpenCL, OpenGL 2.1, HybridPower I really would like to get this mod to work, if theres any information i can provide such as error reports or things of this nature I'd be glad to help. I didnt install any mods before this, so there isnt a possibilty for conflicting mods. I dont know the exact names of the files i could need, but if there are any that you need,tell me and I'll do what I can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saving your time, cncwarlord Except that his post is from June 4th and the latest Nvidia driver was released June 15th... Edit: I'm blind! However he didn't mention DirectX which also could be an issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cncwarlord Posted June 26, 2010 Author Share Posted June 26, 2010 My drivers are up to date. Can you think of anything else that could cause this problem? And please don't say update my drivers, because its becoming quite redundant. I've also updated direct x to its newest version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tore Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 This is a strange issue, your installation may have been corrupted somehow. Have you tried uninstalling Zero Hour, deleting the ZH folder (not the documents folder) and then reinstalling ZH and TDR? If this doesn't solve it then I don't know what else to do. It's strange that it doesn't work for you though, I use Windows 7 64-bit and everything works fine for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alitar_1212 Posted October 19, 2017 Share Posted October 19, 2017 I am having the same problem now, even with a clean install and newest patch as of now. gpu: gtx 1070 latest drivers and latest api are there any solutions yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sgtmyers88 Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 (edited) Has to be corrupt video card drivers or game/mod files. Never experienced this before. This might help https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FjT7qOl_CIk Edited October 20, 2017 by sgtmyers88 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
