All BC games use the latest SafeDisc copy protection from Macrovision. If the game cannot find the CDROM, won't run etc, you need to read this entire thread and take the appropriate action. The copy protection scheme will prevent the game from running if ANY debugger, virtual CD tools etc is currently running in memory. Read this SafeDisc help document. If you have the Microsoft Script Debugger installed, read this. To find out what processes are running on your machine in order to determine which third party apps (virtual CD drivers, debuggers etc) are running, go to SysInternals and download Process Explorer. It gives better information on what processes are running, where they are located etc.

Copied over from another thread quote: Originally posted by Brett: I had a problem with the install but I found a work-around if anyone else encounters the issue. Basically the install gave me an error that it could not find the Data1.cab file during the install and gave me a Retry/Cancel option. It made no sense since I was viewing the CD contents and could clearly see the file. A reboot did not fix the issue. I copied the contents of the CD to a folder under the My Documents folder and ran it from there. The install worked fine. Hope this helps. FYI: I closed most of the programs I was running for the install including AV and firewall software. FYI: I have a stock HP A230N with an add-on Nvidia 5600 Ultra card. Let me know if you need more detail

Yeah, thats my favorite thing to do. Especially if you have Fleet C&C and you let loose in a hostile region.

Wow!!! It will support a truly revolutionary save anywhere system!! Read all about it here. See?! I knew there was something truly cool going on at 3DRealms and which has kept this game almost 8 years in development. [ 03-24-2004, 03:15 PM: Message edited by: Supreme Cmdr ]

I was responding to Darkling's post. Your post was not in the least bit informative which is why I ignored it. Anyway, I just checked the code - which has NOT changed since BCM (back in 1999). 5000 EPs are awarded for the first station capture (just like it says in the appendix).

uhm, right, I remember that box office bomb

Gimme a break. It never occured to you to kill the debugger and Norton Ghost? Especially after ALL the discussions that have gone on in the tech support forum?

When in doubt, vote Nader!!!

OK, since I don't want to keep deleting posts and since some you don't seem to get it - the next person to post shady and untested items (in the vein of what I see in cc, JCman and your post), you'll be court-martialed. No, but that might be just me does NOT qualify as reasonable feedback. You are either sure - through testing - or you are not. Simple.

Download Process Explorer and run it. Then save the process list to a text file. Cut and paste the contents of that file in this thread.

Its using the latest version of Macrovision SafeDisc. So, if it says you have some sort of debugger or emulation software running, you probably do. Get rid of it.

Yeah, we think that Smokified person is someone who was previously banned there and has returned under the guise of wanting tech support. Notice how he posted in almost every thread, then insulted me, the mods etc - which resulted in several of his posts being edited, deleted etc.

Commandline parameters will work with both - or / but the "w" condition didn't have support for the - case and I corrected that in RC8 already.

THATS why there is a server log. Why is it that I have to spell everything out? Please post the entire error message so that I can see the error number (it would be a negative number) associated with that error message. quote: Originally posted by Werewolf: As for how I lost my vessel, I just Alt-E -ed out of it. This worked fine in this new version, however my command craft was gone thereafter.I was floating in space, and checked really thorougly if maybe I overlooked my own ship. It really wasn't there anymore. OK which is it? Did you lose it? Or did you not lose it? And can you reproduce it? I have been doing ALT+E for the past few days (while testing chat) and saw no problems. To Cc and JCman, that gc error message indicates that packets are queuing up and probably getting dropped (for some odd reason). That would cause the problem you guys are experiencing with not being to move sometimes - or warped back in time.

DX9 installed nvidia 40.72 drivers on win98se. desktop settings had to match the games settings or I had a CTD when accessing options. I am set at 1024x768 32bit for both game and desktop. Cheers! Try upgrading from that 40.72 driver and tell me if you're still dancing.

Great. Another movie I want to see, that I won't be able to see. F*ck Hollywood!!!

Its rubbish. Yeah, you're easy to please. After all your years with BC games, I can see why. LOL!!!
