jacobdouds Posted June 8, 2002 Share Posted June 8, 2002 What do you mean the game gets freaky?Oh, you mean the dull textures? Square shadows? Weird terrain?Well, im baffeled, Nema?What are the changes you made exactly? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frodo Posted June 8, 2002 Share Posted June 8, 2002 what version of emperor are you using? You should upgrade to 1.09 if you don't have it. Did you create the unit yourself, or was it an existing unit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
execuchris Posted June 9, 2002 Author Share Posted June 9, 2002 i do have v1.09. it happens when i make a camoflauged unit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
execuchris Posted June 9, 2002 Author Share Posted June 9, 2002 and yes, the weird textures, square shadows, and weird terrain are a little freaky. it really ruins gameplay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frodo Posted June 10, 2002 Share Posted June 10, 2002 did you mod anything? Or has it happened since you bought emperor? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
execuchris Posted June 10, 2002 Author Share Posted June 10, 2002 it all happened when i reinstalled the game because xp closed it (u might remember the topic on "xp closes when dune starts") Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frodo Posted June 10, 2002 Share Posted June 10, 2002 that's weird, are you running the game in compatibility mode for windows 98? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

execuchris Posted June 10, 2002 Author Share Posted June 10, 2002 and  jacob, what do you mean called for help? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nyarlathotep Posted June 11, 2002 Share Posted June 11, 2002 Did you always have this problem ? Has the game run before without this problem ? If so, what changed ? Are you using one of the original maps, or a home made one ?If you can, please attach your dxdiag to your reply, with the tests on the sound and display tab run. I'll see what I can do to help..

vidiware Posted June 11, 2002 Share Posted June 11, 2002 Try to uninstall EmperorInstall direct x 8.1x againand then install emperorupdate emperorbe sure to turn off screen savers++ so the installation nnot is corrupted Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
execuchris Posted June 11, 2002 Author Share Posted June 11, 2002 i didn't always have this problem. this was kinda a problem when i reinstalled emporer. i didn't know what was going on, but i found out eventually. and this probably only happens on original maps, cause i never played on a home made (no time to make one).

jacobdouds Posted June 11, 2002 Share Posted June 11, 2002 I called for help, ie, I IM'd Doc Nyar, he has a better chance at this, due to the fact, this seems a tech problem, not an actuall mod problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gobalopper Posted June 12, 2002 Share Posted June 12, 2002 If you are editing your game then you probably had leftover files in your Emperor directory after you re-installed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nyarlathotep Posted June 12, 2002 Share Posted June 12, 2002 Did you uninstall and clear out all the folders before you re-installed ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
execuchris Posted June 15, 2002 Author Share Posted June 15, 2002 i kept all of the files since i thought that i might need them later Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
execuchris Posted June 15, 2002 Author Share Posted June 15, 2002 i have to delete all folders after i reinstall? i didn't know that. so do i have to reinstall the game again and delete all of the folders? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
execuchris Posted June 16, 2002 Author Share Posted June 16, 2002 i kinda left my install disk somewhere, so i'll have to find it. this will take a while. i'll post again later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
