Well sometimes things are almost too easy! Here's what I did: - I copied the (fully patched) C&C Generals (and Zero Hour) folder from the Applications folder on my old PowerMac to the Applications folder on my OS X Lion MBP. - I copied the two files "com.aspyr.command.conquer.generals.plist" and " …

The usual places probably, shoudn't take too long to find. /users/yourusername/documents or library/preferences library/application support or somewhere in library (both /library and ~/library in all cases) I'll try to boot up the old dusty powermac and look around your suggested locations. I'll be …

you should be able to connect via firewire and target mode... or put the files on the g5 on a media and pop that into the new mac... That's what I'm thinking too - but does anyone know where - apart from the main applications directory - C&C Generals place files?

When OS X Lion came a quite a while back now, I immediately rushed to the app store to download and do a clean install of this fantastic feline fruit child. Had I known, however, the perils this whiskered wildcat would bring me, I'd have thought twice - if not thrice - before throwing myself into …

Well that was quick! :happy: The boxed screen issue with Zeckensack doesn't happen to me when playing in fullscreen mode though. But every different system setup will behave differently in one way or the other (which is why you make people happy giving them more options to play around with :happy:) …

You've tested this game with zeckensack. What about dgvodoo and nglide? Well, I tried dgvoodoo to begin with, but that just didn't seem to work at all really in Vista, so that's why I went on to Zeckensack, and since it works really well 96,7% of the times (approximately :happy:), I didn't bother …

Oh yeah, sorry. I've completely forgotten to mention that I've only tested it on 32-bit versions of both Win Vista and Windows 7 - not the 64-bit versions. Thx.

Thanks! It works, but it seems that you can't place downloaded cars & tracks in the game? I've installed carstockalypse, but everytime that i place a car in the game and press ok, the next time that i start carstockalypse it's gone... I know how it works, because my girlfriend has windows xp and …

Update Oct. 5th. 2009: Note that the below solution to make Carmageddon 2 run on Vista and Windows 7, has only been tested on the 32-bit versions of the two OS's - not the 64-bit versions. Therefore I cannot tell whether it'll work on these versions or not. Update Sept. 14th 2009: Just tested this …

Well that fixes that! Thanks again 😁

OK, I finally found a way to make the sound work in Carmageddon 2 on Vista. You need to set the carma2_HW.exe (or c2_HW.exe for some) to run in Windows 98/ME Compatibility mode, and then run that file directly (instead of the Carma2.exe) - and you have sound! Woo! (You of course need to install the …

Yes of course, but no luck with that either 🙁 So is anyone here running Carmageddon 2 on Vista, with no sound problems at all? And how?

Tried the patch, but *sigh* still no sound... And a correction. It doesn't need the CD to play. And I'm using Zeckensack to run it now - not that that has anything to do with the sound - but thanks for the tip DosFreak, it's much more stable.

And yes, it is a CD-rom game, or at least it needs the CD-rom to play.

Well VDM-sound doesn't give me the option to run it with Carmageddon 2, I guess since it's not a dos game or something like that. But as I am a newbie, I don't know what Sapucdex is. But is there any way to use VDM sound with Carm 2? Or any other solution...?

Tried Zeckensack, which also works just fine - but still doesn't fix the missing sound issue unfortunately 🙁

EDIT: You can now find a way to make Carmageddon 2 run on Vista - with sound and all - in the thread "How to run Carmageddon 2 on Windows Vista" - here http://www.vogons.org/viewtopic.php?t=20780 . I Just got my beloved Carmageddon 2 running on my Vista laptop using dgvoodoo. It runs perfectly in …
