RazorbackJac Posted April 29, 2006 Share Posted April 29, 2006 Game runs great until I save. Once I save everything is blended together and multiple cities show on screen(same citie) and black all over the screen. I have a some what new laptop 7 months old. Gefore go 6800 card and direct x 9.0c. 2.2 comp and 1gig ram. Someone may have posted the same problem but thought I would just incase they have not. SC2 Reinstalled the game and worked completely fine until you save and then go back into the game.

Hubert Cater Posted May 1, 2006 Share Posted May 1, 2006 This is really a strange error and not one I've heard of before. If you minimize the game, ESC key or ALT-TAB and then maximize the game screen again does the problem go away? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RazorbackJac Posted May 1, 2006 Author Share Posted May 1, 2006 Hubert tried what you said and it did not help. Everything in the game-main menu are ok and the border around the game map and the small map are ok. But the main map is as I said in the above thread. Black, multiple cities of the same city. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hubert Cater Posted May 6, 2006 Share Posted May 6, 2006 Razorback, Can you try following the Elicense instructions on enabling DEP to see if this resolves the issue for you? Seems as though this is a culprit for a lot of the odd errors I've been seeing with SC2 so I figured it would not hurt to try and see if it helps: http://www.battlefront.com/elicense_faq.html#dep 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RazorbackJac Posted May 7, 2006 Author Share Posted May 7, 2006 Hubert, Yea Haw and Merry Christmas Have not been able to play this thing since downloaded. Went into "my computer" and and turn on DEP for essential windows programs and services. I checked this when I first downloaded the game and after my hard copies came. But this time I just "hit" apply only because the setting was already correct. And WaLa! Runs great now. I never hit apply before because the game was in the correct position and never got around too doing the other step if that didn't work. Thank you Sir. SO even if its in the correct spot- some of us just need to hit "apply" only without going thru the additional steps if that does not work.

Hubert Cater Posted May 7, 2006 Share Posted May 7, 2006 Ok, glad to see it is working now 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RazorbackJac Posted May 8, 2006 Author Share Posted May 8, 2006 Well, got home from work and fired sc2 up and now its doing it again but now even if I start a new game, there is no change. I didn't change anything. Was playing fine when I got off last night. No one else gets on my comp(no kids here). So now I am going slowly thru all of the steps of the Elicense. Did go back in and hit apply again but nothing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hubert Cater Posted May 9, 2006 Share Posted May 9, 2006 Ok, this seems to be an odd issue and perhaps not related to Elicense at all. Can you try a lower Video Card setting and/or disable and acceleration or special features such as ATI's CrossFire setting if this applies and see if that helps. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RazorbackJac Posted May 10, 2006 Author Share Posted May 10, 2006 Re hit apply a couple days ago and have saved close 6 or more times and game is running fine now. Got home today and ran the game(sc2) and fired up just fine. So i may check the suggestions out if it continues but as of now runs just fine. Great game! Just one question. Is the Elicense installed to help fight piracy? The reason I ask is because I bought sc1, the combat mission series and never had these problems. I am not saying it could not be some issue with my computer. But read a article on the web how these types programs are being used and causing gamers all kinds of problems. Thanks, RazorbackJac p.s. Thanks for working with me 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
