war2 combat still broken

[chayliss]

i had 4.01...had color issue...would flicker back and forth from fine to messed up...non stop cycle

uninstalled to reinstall new version

website had a link to the same verson i had....soon as i load...same color issue

btw when i lauched the game it said new version available
clicked yes toupdate...nohting seemed to happen

tried the old open the resolution window....still color issue

i thought i saw it said for awhile that that issue was solved...

if you cannot solve the color issue....how do i now see some kind of ''anti-hack'' claim....is this an addon...is it buit in...i doubht it does anything since color issue cannot even be fixed when it claims to have been.

was going to come play the tourney but....game is still unplayable

give up on this...hand over helpfull resources and let someone make an spiritual successor to warcraft 2 hd...change enough so blizz wont sue but keep the same mechanics...change the names and faces...

fuck this shit...

unacceptable....

''WHY DONT WE HAZ TEH PLAYAS NE MORE?!!?"

zero kudos to all ''in charge'' of the community

what version of windows do you have?

when you install the new combat, you can click to install the color patch or not, right?  have you tried with and without?

anti-hack reports are shown here:  http://server.war2.ru/status/

people with antihack enabled and not running hacks show a green AH

are the colors bad in game or just in chat or both?

Oh, that probably worked pre the ddraw fix that was included in 4.01 - you can disable it when you install:



Aside from that, killing explorer.exe has always fixed the color glitches in Win7. There's been an app around for years that you can use, you drop it in the war2combat folder & make a shortcut, then run that shortcut to play war2. It automatically kills explorer before the game starts, then restarts it when you exit the game. ftp://ftp.war2.ru/war2/Win7_colorfix.zip

4.01 is the latest version. The "new version available" prompt you saw was probably for War2PLoader, part of the antihack system. Which definitely does work!

Also the default install settings have worked great with win7 for me

gw guys.

i have not test but i agree and feel confident.

what does the anti hack detect....map/spell/weapon/shields

i saw a link that showed current games....but if u dont feel like having 2 windows open one to show you war2 one to show u the hack page.

how does the hack catch archive....say if a guy turned on maphack for 1 second.

i suggest spritiual sucessor to warcraft 2 hd

Only problem with that is win7 sucks. [emoji23]

win 10 def sucks for war2.

i got 2 big ass black bars on each side of my screen when playing war2.

im playing on a 15.6" laptop as it is... it reduces the side to probably like 12x12"

Ah, hm...yes win 10 does have its issues with war2 and other legacy games like Starcraft BW and War3. But, that shouldn't be the reason not to upgrade to the new OS, it is better than 7.

My Win7 laptop did that too. The fix for me was right click desktop > graphic properties and something about resolution or scaling. Sorta like this http://www.sevenforums.com/gaming/57135-2-black-bars-when-playing-warcraft-iii.html
