Sorry that was soooo long..maybe I have a bad copy of the game? Also..should or do I need to have the game disk in the dvd drive to play the game..or will it just run (normally) from the desktop shortcut without the disk in the drive?

Hi ingsoc84,

if you are using ZW mods, you dont need the disc in your drive!!

Hello ..no not using any mods yet..IM still tryign toget the basic game to run..it ran on my pc fine..then I did a reformat and reinstalled the game.and since then..the game wont run...CTD..and multiple errors..which I have no idea what is the cause..all other games..such as Silent Hunter 5..play just fine...so Im not sure what the issue is here.I've uninstalled and reinstalled the game several times..cleared the cache in the game..etc etc..stll..no dice..


If anyone can think of something Im missing..I'd sure appreciate the help..as I really want to play the game..ran fine on my system before I reformated the HD.and I've loaded everything back up..SH5 plays great..I have a

AMD Athalon FX 57 single core running at 2.9...(single core worked fine for the game when first installed) 4 gigs corsair DDR ram...fatality pro xfi titanium sound card...geforce Ultra 8800 with 768 megs ram..windows xp sp3..have downoaded all new drivers..tried older video drivers...directx 9.0c is up and running..dxdiag run shows no problems...I installed java.dont know if Im missing some basic program or otherwise to run the game..really strange this thing is....thanks much


Here is my latest error code upon running:

They can go in the system32 folder or the TvsT root folder

Okay.thanks..installed into the system32 folder..reinstalling the game. Is there a reason they would not have already been in the system32 folder...or does the game try to install them there?.wish me luck!

Default final 2010 Update release bug hunt

Well ingsoc84 you turned out to be a real blessing,

Old ZeeWolfy is at the moment chasing down a bug that must be fixed before releasing the final 2010 Update.
It has to do with the end of the mission when you complete all the objectives(it's obviously something I did)
and is causing me to test all the missions, one at a time to make sure I fixed it. So to all please be patient with me,
I sure do not want another repeat of the Oct. release chaos , so the drop-dead deadline panic had to go
and I sure learned my lesson .

Humbly
ZW

Looking very nice there Zee, can I ask you a question.

Have you ever come across an entry to extend the time the server/client waits for a connection?

We often have problems where we try to connect and you see the packets being sent/received (F9) but it stop after 3 seconds.

We would like to extend this time.

Any info would be of great help

Hi Murkz,
I have yet to begin to understand the multi-player code. But when I start
I will be more than happy to assist you in trouble shooting.
Although I already decided that the TvT Multi-player will be a completely
separate install from the single player I still have no useful MP knowledge.
