Re: 2... game confusions?

1)  In WZ 1.XX, there was a feature that, if I held down the shift key while building, after placing the structure my build menu would automatically re-open to the page of the structure I just placed, making my ability to create long walls or rows of bunkers easier.  In 2.XX, this only works for th...

Cannot build / research Commander after loading a save.

I am sorry to say I am not sure what level I am actually on, but I will try and describe. I am back at base after doing 2 (I think) away missions in a row.  And I have just bumped into the "New Paradigm".  When I left off last night, I could research and build commanders.  When I loaded ba...

Re: I hope that begging does help

But what about the customisable units?  That is the main reason I play WZ.  Not for the campaign, but fo the variety that has be brought in by body propulsion and turret.  I have seen nothing else come close, not even earth 2160.

Re: bittorrent as an alternative download

*nods*

Its time may come yet, but at only 30mb max, its not a killer.  Now if we had the rights to all the vids, etc.. then maybe a torrent would be needed

Re: I hope that begging does help

The man Himself (Chris Taylor) knows what hes doing and even more he did make that game with one purpose feeding the needs of teh gamers not feeding the producers money pockets. I never saw a creator talking about his game with some much passion. I have seen one at least equal to CT - David Braben....

Re: I hope that begging does help

did CT have anything to do with WZ2100? I too wanted to see 2120, but hopefully that is where the resurection project is taking WZ2100 - to better grounds. Ok the story in the campaign may not have changed, but who cares if it us playable? Besides, once WZ became open source, after MUCH badgering by...

Re: Flashy Cursors

I could be wrong - my mind may be playing tricks, but I am sure that the target cross hair and build pointer etc were all coloured similarly to the sensor target crosshair.

It has been a while since I had native 3dfx, I could be entirelt wrong.

Flashy Cursors

I don't know how many people who played the original WZ on with the right hardware.  But if anyone played the 3DFX version, the cursors were flashy blue and not plain white. I know there is a lot of serious work to be done, but would it be possible or would it be considered to add the flashy cursors...

Re: win xp pro - Game crashes when in full screen and window when loading game

NP.  Glad I could help seeing as I have only been online here for a grand total of 3 hours and 40 minutes 8).

Its like asking someone who can't turn something on whether it is plugged in - often the simplist things are overlooked.

Re: Instructions for running fullscreen with resolution-Windows

to some, depending on hardware, you may wish to add   --noshadows into the mix. My current path is "C:\Program Files\Warzone 2100\warzone2100.exe"  --mod grim.wz --fullscreen --viewport 1024x768 Probably a no-brainer - but make sure your GFx Card and Monitor can handle the res you set :D

Re: win xp pro - Game crashes when in full screen and window when loading game

just a query from a novice, but from reading on here - did you uninstall 2.0.2 or did you "upgrade"?

Re: Blue Screen of Death

Well, looking here 0x0000008E: KERNEL_MODE_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED (Click to consult the online MSDN article .) A kernel mode program generated an exception which the error handler didn’t catch.
