Title: Need Help, war2 programmers
Post by: Knitter on November 18, 2016, 03:36:59 PM
Hello :)
when im on war2 and alt tabbing to windows and return to war2 my comp gets froze alot. When that happens i got to restart my comp.
I thought its my own problem because i got a very newb comp. But i wonder because ive seen a few more people who said the same. Anyone know about the issue?
Could it be a programmer mistake? or is it just my computer?

Thanks & cheers.

Well its totally depends, do you use a color fix? What version  of windows do you use?

Happens to me quite frequently as well, but a simple alt+f4 closes war2 and unfreezes my computer.  I'm guessing this doesn't work for you?

We had a discussion about this some time ago that never got anywhere :< http://forum.war2.ru/index.php/topic,715.0.html (http://forum.war2.ru/index.php/topic,715.0.html) I remember back in the golden days of bnet and Win XP this used to be an occasional problem for me, but I don't think it's ever happened to me since war2combat/ru

Hi, well I use Linux so I don't have this specific problem... but have you tried to run war 2 in compatibility mode for xp?

Cheers

This happens to me a bit too, at least one every time I play, I usually alt tab to set music up during hall and at least once my system will totally freeze.
