Missions bug

[ZEROHOURPRO 0]

Hey,

I'm playing Generals Zero Hour under Win7 64bit. I run it in compatibility mode and it works nicely, however I've noticed a bug which I don't get in regular Generals-when I finish a mission etc. USA campaign medium difficulty mission 1, I do not get the "Continue" button, I only get "Play Again?" and "End" and I do not get a safefile in Load list so I cannot start mission 2 USA.

Has anyone figured out how to fix this problem?

I also use Windows 7 64 bit and don't have this issue. Which version fo the game do you have? Original disc version? The First Decade? Origin version?

 

Also, does saving in general work?

I have heared of this kind of "bug" before, but usually the person effected by it will also experience their bases blowing up after a min or more so of gameplay. It is a cheesy anti piracy thing.

 

Now if this is not the case and you are working of a legit version...dl the latest patch.

If its a origin version:

a. are you running of a pre existing origin after you reinstalled your pc? it could be its a registry issue wich can be solved by reinstalling origin and gen/zh after that.

b. just re-dl/re-install gen/zh through origin otherwise and try again.

 

A solution if you have a legit version but are using a no-cd crack/fixed exe....get a more recent/other version.

Sir, I know Origin but I didn't buy the game from there. I bought the game a long time ago(possibly in 2006.) I use Origin but I installed this game using CD's with original CD keys which I've bought in a shop. I am using Alcohol 120% to mount image of the CD's on my virtual drive so I do not have to insert CDs every time I start the game. I also installed ZH1.04 patch in order to install Shockwave,which is in my opinion the best mod for Zero Hour.

Well when I saw this I googled about the "Anti-Privacy" part of the game. Maybe it was triggered because I changed my network adapter's MAC address and my hwid.

Although I could play both Skirmish and on the LAN.

I saw some fixing which took part in the registry and I've tried it. And yes!- the genious who wrote it didn't write it correctly and he didn't warn anyone that he might even lose ability to play skirmish. And now here am I reinstalling the game. You (well not technically) blocked me out of playing games vs my family. ;D

Nevermind, the installation may fix the campaign issue, although I don't take faith in it.

 

Have a merry XMAS and a happy new year, I know you wanted to help!!!

I will post if the issue is resolved so other players with this issue may see it-I didn't see a similar topic about ZH on the Internet as far as I've looked.

Well, I removed the game with Revo Uninstaller and later on I deleted My Documents folders for the games and YES! the game worked-I've just finished mission one and I got mission 2 in Load.

 

Thanks for help nonetheless.
