n0kn0k Posted March 12, 2007 Share Posted March 12, 2007 You might wanna make sure you got all the .NET versions installed. I googled the last part of the error msg, and loads of .NET references in there. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisND Posted March 12, 2007 Author Share Posted March 12, 2007 Where do I get those? That's foreign to my ears. What .NET? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since they were having problems with .net 3.0 There are many more things to tweak about vista. Just google a bit on Vista tweaks. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hubert Cater Posted March 12, 2007 Share Posted March 12, 2007 Normal Dude, is this with the v1.06 patch installed? I only mention it as the v1.06 patch should resolve any Vista incompatibilities. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisND Posted March 12, 2007 Author Share Posted March 12, 2007 OK got it working... now however, the game is really slow and choppy when in a scenario or the editor (but not when in the menus). This can't be because of my processor. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
n0kn0k Posted March 12, 2007 Share Posted March 12, 2007 Interesting, i've got the same problem! Just check the AAR from Waterloo. How did you get it working ? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisND Posted March 13, 2007 Author Share Posted March 13, 2007 I haven't fixed the lag problem. Hubert, any ideas? I can't make my mods with this problem. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisND Posted March 13, 2007 Author Share Posted March 13, 2007 Hey Hubert, I did some experimenting: The lag is gone or greatly reduced over the oceans, like the Atlantic. As I scroll from the Atlantic to Europe (East), the speed progressively slows down as more land/units come into view. CPU shows 26% usage and the RAM is at 65%. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChrisND Posted March 13, 2007 Author Share Posted March 13, 2007 Actually re-installing the 1.06 patch did. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisND Posted March 13, 2007 Author Share Posted March 13, 2007 Well I disabled every useless Vista program/feature I could find and it plays a LITTLE better, but not much. Then the sound driver mysteriously disapears off of the computer and I have to reinstall it. And I'll bet the computer's power is being used to verify 30 times a second that it isn't being used for DVD piracy (I'm not kidding either). Microsoft will collapse someday from its own incompetence. Edit to add: And now Internet Explorer isn't working properly. I am THIS close to returning this thing and finding a used computer with XP. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisND Posted March 13, 2007 Author Share Posted March 13, 2007 Actually, never mind. I'm returning the computer. Ain't worth it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
