Post by lordcalf »

Hello WarZone Fans and Devs

lot of years i played wz2100 and everything went well till version 3.1

Now i installed 3.1.1 and when i try to start it, nothing happens, except finding the process in my taskmanager with around 250mb RAM and thats it.

I hope you can help me as its sad that i cant play the game anymore :cry:

We need details.
Post your logs & what kind of a machine you got, along with what video card.

Update your video driver from the nVidia website.

@Logs - i dont have a LOG Folder in my wz2100 game directory nor one of those two files

@stiv - as i allways have issues after installing a newer graphic driver i dont want to do that till there is a real reason, actual games are running pretty well - is there maybe a issue with directx 11? and think of it wz3.1 was working without problems!

Search your hard drive for files that begin with "WZlog" and I bet you will find them at the location mentioned above.

Without those logs, we can only guess what is going on, and that won't help anyone.

Logs are in my documents, as explained in the link above.

Wz doesn't use that.

Warzone uses OpenGL for its graphics, not DirectX. That is why you often see "but other games run fine!" in graphics problem threads.

Your nVidia card should run just fine with the driver from the nVidia website - *not* the one that your operating system supplies. These often have OpenGL issues.

But that said, seeing the log file would be useful.

So after iam usually really sceptical when it comes to new graphical drivers even from official sites i did it and it was installed correctly and updated my driver and even after a restart everything looked normal.

The Start of Warzone made me sceptical again as it took a bit longer as i remember but now wz2100 3.1.1 is working on my computer

BUT for our DEV's who i really appreciate that you do such an awesome work...

After i started wz2100 before NO Log was created and i checked it more then twice in any data folder i could think of (as iam a pc technician too) but i could not find anything that could maybe help you if this happens again.

So far i hope when i start version 3.1.1 with an older laptop it will work too (for a Lan Party)

Thank you all for your patience and help!
