Because I also host a server, I use 1.6.9.2

Okay, we are doing as you say: 1692 server, others on 1719.

What I hadn’t noticed is that you select to be a server on the options screen, before you get in the game. So I selected that and then selected SERVE in the game, and now everything works perfectly.

Thank you

Thank you for your response. I had to go back and fix the update that was required before you install Escalation and now all is working. Windows 11 can run JO which is good news for everyone with ageing computers.

So we have three machines Desktop 10, Laptop 11 and Laptop 7.

If I host with Lap 11, then Desk 10 and Lap 7 can see the game. However…[Read more]

[quote quote=4417]Hi, Im just trying to get AW2 running on a new Windows 11 Laptop. I tested it out with my desktop which has a separate install. I have 5 Joint OPs discs and I may have come unstuck by downloading the same version on my new Laptop that is on my Desktop. Anyway, I hosted on the laptop, joined on the desktop, started moving, and…[Read more]

Ok thats interesting.

Which exe version are you using – 1.7.1.9 or 1.6.9.2?

Hi Sleepless, The version number shouldn’t be a problem. It’s normally autogenerated. Maybe it’s a graphics driver issue. You can try to uninstall your current gfx driver version and download an older version just to test out if it helps on the problem. [/quote]

Done – same effect. Interesting new Info:

mine is 26. could this a problem and how can I solve this?

Hello Captain,

same. Buildings disappear in high resolution and after lower it to 1280×1024, all buildings stay visible. A friend of mine tried it out on his RTX 4070 – same problem, same solution (1280×1024).

maybe I delete these maps and go on..

thx and a good start into the new year

Thanks, I will try it. 🙂

Hi Sleepless,

I found one thing in your video settings (game.cfg) that might be the reason. You can set the texture compression to maximum instead of minimum.

Here is how your settings should look like to the best graphics and minimum compression. Basically you don’t want any compression of textures so in needs to be set to “minimal” for the…[Read more]

ah just a little missunderstand on mz side. thought because off zipping info that it should be small. so I only sendet the graphic part

Hi Sleepless,

Thanks for the attachment.

I opened it, but there is a lot of stuff missing in your game.cfg

It only contains this:

// game.cfg
//
// GENERAL
version = 26
// DISPLAY
windowed = 0
hw3d_deviceno = 0
hw3d_name = “NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 Laptop ”
hw3d_guid = “D7B71E3E-6660-11CF-CB653B330EC2D235”
hw3d_res640x480 = 1
hw3d_res800x600 =…[Read more]

again…

I dont think it’s a driver issue, because I have this problem since I create maps. Means: 4 different systems, graphic cards, hardware (but I’m a totally noob in this xD ).

I have 6 unfinished maps because of this problem (dont want to release them with this issue). and in all maps the disappearing thing is gone if I do like I wrote.

I have…[Read more]

[quote quote=4395]Is it always the hw3d_res1280x1024 resolution that works and above that the buildings disappear? Any suggestions for a solution? Captain our beloved modder god – higher resolutions are added in AW2? could there be a bug? I am grateful for any thoughts and suggestions greets, Sleepless [/quote]

That sounds weird. C…[Read more]
