**Alkiviadis** · 10-26-2006, 10:09

First of all,congratulations for the mod...

I searh the 17 pages of the forum and i didn't find something to help me...

Maybe i didn't search well...

I will try to descibe the problem...

First of all I have 0.72 version.

I play KH campaign and in the first 2 turns the game crashes in to desktop...

with a message nv4_display and said to me that my graphic drivers are not install properly!!!But my drivers are install properly...
Then my screen is like safe mode...

I did some steps: i stop my screen saver,this have effect for some turns,but again after some turns i had the same problem..

The second step is to have enable the nview desktop,this is helping for a while...but again crashes to the same way!!!For now on i have play about 12 years....

the second error is that whenever I give a battle and near me have a sea ,then i see something white, it shows to this side as if a light blinks, something as lightning,and of caurse uselessly I wait for the rain....

If somebody can help me I would appreciate him...

Firstly you must upgrade to 0.74. Go to our website -> downloads -> patches and download 0.74 and install it over 0.72

As for your graphical problems, the only suggestion is to get the latest drivers if you are having problems. Otherwise this has never popped up before. Are you getting these problems with vanilla RTW, if you are I would suggest heading over to the main technical help forum on the .org

Thank you anyway....

EB is much bigger and somewhat slower than vanilla - it will tax your cpu's resources if you have a slower CPU. If this is the case, and EB is pretty much pushing the limits of your cpu, then weird things might sometimes happen. Trying not to run other programs at the same time might help, but some computers are just to slow to run EB (not sure this is your case, but the weird results you are giving make that one possibility).

Thank you Teleklos,my computer is running 3GHz with 1024MB RAM,i don't think that is my problem....

Thank you anyway....

Maybe my graphic card GeForce 4 Ti 4200 AGP 8x have some problem...

Maybe...

I would say definately. I found it difficult to run eb on GeForce 5200, a 4200 would be even worse. The campaign map will be really slow, and it may be the cause of your graphical glitches, until you upgrade to a better graphics card. I bought a GeForce 6600 GT and it works a treat now.

My GeForce 4 MX 4000 128MB copes OK on low settings and so does my 256MB of RAM. I do, however, have to avoid large battles as they come with plenty of lag. I can't wait to get my laptop and play EB on high settings. At the moment I am waiting for Vista to come out and for RAM/Graphics Card prices to come down.

But i ve a related problem. i posted in another thread. i bought a new graphic card ( ati radeon x850xt ) and i got problem too with eb ( makes my pc reboot ). with my old geforce6200a was no problem with eb, so it should be some bug with eb, maybe totally new installation would solve the problem..

I have a small problem but it seems useless to start a new thread for it. Every time I fight a battle and return to the map, everything, and that means my cities, diplomats, generals etc., are covered in fog of war. It's frustrating and confusing for me, so how do I fix it?

**Tellos Athenaios** · 11-05-2006, 09:56

End turn usually does the trick. If you don't want to yet, then I suggest make use of those handy arrow buttons, those that scroll between your various characters and cities. (Just above the season indicator.)

**Zalmoxis** · 11-05-2006, 11:18

No doesn't work. The fog stays until I close and re-open the game. Probably my graphics or something.

**Alkiviadis** · 11-30-2006, 09:33

I was thinking that my problem stop...

but now I have something else to think of...

In the Campaign Map the trees (only on the East!!!!!) moving up and down!!!!

Now the game laging often and in the cities some times I see no units ,but
white cards with the numbers of each unit and the chevrons each unit have...

Maybe someone can help me....
