Victory Games to Close - Command & Conquer Cancelled
fir3w0rx replied to a topic in Command & Conquer News
EA should have just made a HD version of all the older C&Cs (from Tiberian Dawn, to Yuri's Revenge), just like Blizzard did with StarCraft. That would have been long done by now and appealed to the older and newer generation of gamers. -
Problem: Everything runs at perfect speed, but every 5 seconds or so, the game totally freezes for about half a second, like as if it's skipping some frames, then goes back to perfect speed again. Observations: -I have GenTool 6.2 installed and I have "upload mode" turned OFF and FPS Limit is also OFF, but It was doing this before I installed GenTool. -Every other C&C game that was made before and after Generals/ZH runs perfectly fine on the highest settings and highest resolutions. I even have StarCraft 2 - WoL running on the HIGH setting and 1920x1080 reso without any choppiness or lag. -This happens in single-player mode in both campaigns and skirmish. I haven't tried online multiplayer yet. Things that I've tried: -lowest in-game settings -Win XP SP3 -running as admin -"Run in 256 colors" (this setting worked perfectly for a few weeks but suddenly started getting choppy again, I'm guessing it's an auto-update on my PC maybe?) -"Disable visual themes" -exception added to firewall -disabled all advanced 3D settings in my graphics card settings and changed it from "quality" to "performance" mode -disabled UAC -disabled Aero -graphics card driver updated -lowered game AND desktop resolution to 1024x768 -changed color depth from "Highest (32-bit)" to "Medium (16-bit)" -scanned entire PC with latest Norton and Windows Defender - no virii found. -run it in Windows XP mode (virtual machine) Things that I have NOT tried yet: -go to my garage and pull out my old Win XP computer My specs: -Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit Service Pack 1 (legit, not pirated) -Processor: Intel® Core i7 CPU 960 @ 3.2GHz 3.19GHz -Installed memory (RAM): 6.00 GB -GForce GTX 580 -900 watt power supply Game Versions: -Generals v1.08 -Zero Hour v1.04 I have tried the TFD versions (legally purchased) and downloaded ISOs. Any help would be appreciated Btw, does anyone else here have the same problem?

My Generals/ZH is choppy (but not laggy)

But I got it working perfectly for a few weeks using the 256 color setting. Also, I've seen YouTube videos of Generals ZH gameplay (single and multiplayer) without this problem. With all due respect, I hope you're wrong because this is really annoying -
