Maintainers: About Maintainership
What works
- basically everything, out of the box
- all the singleplayer stuff, that means all campaigns, the tutorials, the missions, skirmish, save/load game
- patching the game to V2.50.1516 (latest version available), since it installs as V2.50.1508
What does not
- setting landscape engine or object engine to hardware rendering causes the game to crash, but software rendering works flawless
- the map editor crashes on startup
Workarounds
What was not tested
- multiplayer
Hardware tested
Graphics:
Additional Comments
- sometimes, the desktop screen resolution remains the game resolution and has to be set to the correct value manually (a system restart also resolves the problem) - scrolling to the borders of the main menu causes the game screen sometimes to be shifted, but after a campaign, mission, skirmish, etc. has been started, this effect disappears

Which lines i have to modify or add?

ForceBlit = 1
PureSoftwareMode = 0
ShowVideos = 1

In Video.cfg I changed the above notes and also changed ShowVideo to 0. Even without the nocd crack the game runs perfectly, but I use it anyway, because the game including 2 expensions is 3 cd's. It is not possible inside the game to change to hardware textures.
Save/Load does not crash, but in winecfg I had to enable window manager controlling (I am in Dutch, but it is the second option under 'graphics'.) If not I am not able to use the keyboard to enter a name for my savegame.
