Sonic 292 Posted March 29, 2011 Try reinstalling Yuri's Revenge without applying the unofficial patch 1.03 rev4. Just to check if the game works. Plus you might want to read through this thread on the official C&C forums: http://www.commandandconquer.com/forums/sh...ted-07-03-2011), and there is more help here http://forums.cncnz.com/index.php?showtopic=13574.

ra95.exe 0 Posted March 29, 2011 (edited) ok thx.. done that with the result that ra2 still works fine and yuris revenge just gives me a black screen.... =/ ...... what now? edit: hmmm i just tested tiberian sun in 800x600 and then i get the same error so i guess its bc of the resolution? .... but the problem is when i change the resolution for yuris revenge in the ra2md.ini it just ignores it ..... it will continue to start in 800x600 .....

AlexB 8 Posted March 30, 2011 (edited) Hi ra95.exe, To quote myself on PPM about the graphics problem: You got a Nvidia GeForce GTX465 or 470 or something like that? If you do, try updating the drivers. RA2 is not affected by this problem. I don't know about TS, but I know of at least three YR players the driver update worked for. For the main menu resolution: It can't be changed. 800x600 is the only resolution the menu supports. The resolution set in the configuration file only applies in-game. Hope this helps. edit: Topic on CNCNZ on the graphics issue. Edited March 30, 2011 by AlexB Share this post Link to post

XD works like a charm after getting new drivers lol..... (i feel kinda stupid now lol) many thanks! edit 2: lol although ever since the update tiberian sun and generals fails to start! XD lol... haha is there a way to get them all running? lol..... edit 3: ok got it all working now.... its actually running under linux with wine as well..... thx again Edited April 5, 2011 by ra95.exe Share this post Link to post
