Command & Conquer Generals: Zero Hour for Mac: Free Download - Adds Universal support and more. Download the latest versions of the best Mac apps at MacUpdate. The v1.02 patch for Zero Hour fixes an issue with particle effects.
The installation of C & C Generals Zero Hour shown in the video and the one I downloaded using Direct Download link with the help of Internet Download Manager, is completely different. When I extract the contents of the downloaded file, I got a 2.74 GB file containing both Generals and Zero Hour. It looks like it’s an already installed game.
It had a “How To Install” notepad file with the following text: 1) Disable UAC on Windows 7 And Windows Vista 2) Extract To Short Paths Like C:/Games Or D:/Games 3) Go To The Extracted Folder And Run the (FAST_SETUP.bat File) 4/ Play The Game From Your Desktop. As my folder doesn’t has any compressed one, I just followed steps 3 & 4.Both games are still not working by opening the application icons. Both of them just crashes after the initial loading screen showing the game title. I am running Windows 10 64 bit. Also, update the video. DMT92 February 13, 2018 7:50 PM.
The game was crashing at the intro, I found this fix on the internet, and wanted to make sure people knew about it. URL OF FIX: I will paste the fix here in case the link dies in the future. It worked perfectly! Thanks, on a Windows 7 Ultra 64bit using Amd Phenom II X4 250GT 8Gb DDR3 try this In 'My Documents' (usually at C: users YOURNAME documents) there should be a folder named 'Command and Conquer Generals Data' or 'Command and Conquer Generals Zero Hour Data', which was put there when you installed the game. You need to create a text file using notepad and save it into this folder. However, you must click 'save as' and change the type drop-down box from text file (.txt) to 'all files'.
Then save the file as 'options.ini'. I´ve tried to run the game on Win 7 64 bit and it runs even more stable on 64 bit than 32 bit. You´ll have to run it in compatibility mode, windows xp sp 2 and make sure you mark in run as administrator. It is another matter that EA can´t make a simple patch that fixes this simple error, because this is just an access violation error. I´ve tried to get them to fix this problem, they just don´t want to and don´t give a **** about their customers like always, but still, they are selling this game, just not for people who have windows 7. It is kind of ironic to get more help from Microsoft tech forum about a game that they didn´t develop, i tip my hat for them:-) Keep up the good work!
Hey Gang Finally after months of trying! I did the steps below and it worked! I am using Origin digital download with XP 32-Bit FIRST, I right clicked generals in Origin and selected 'repair'. THEN I did the following: To work your way around this issue, proceed to follow the steps below: 1.
Locate your C&C Generals or C&C Zero-Hour folder in your Program Files. Locate the file dbghelp.dll 3. Delete the file.
Attempt to start Generals again. Xfb File Transfer Mechanism more. Your game should now be running normally. 1st ISSUE: I'm running win7 on an icore7 8 Gig RAM DDR3 machine 1600 x1200 resolution, since it does not support WinXP; I am forced to use Win7. Since then, I have had nothing but issues on getting programs to run correctly without glitches. I loaded C&C ZH with patch 1.04 (clean install) and it runs, then as soon as I install New Tech Mod, I get that annoying Overheat 'catch all'error.
I have made several copies of the C&C ZH w/1.04patch so I can experiment with options. Ok nice thanks Win7+ Mozilla; just crashed after hitting sumit to an update here. Clean install added patch 1.04 and it ran ok then added NTM and the game ran ok then tried copying my old copy of NTM over that one and it crashed after two minutes of play. REPAIR does not work at all so I have to start over with a new clean install. Ok uninstalled Zero Hour and cleaned the old files and reinstalled and it now crashes after 2 minutes. SO it looks like not only do I have to uninstall ZH but Generals also and re-install both programs.
This is one giangantic pain in the butt!!! 2nd ISSUE: I moved all of my files from XP using the Win Transfer File program after I installed Win7, and have all of my old C&C folders with all of the game mods: Reborn, Remix, NTM, etc.After I couldn't get the new C&C ZH NTM to work I went back to the old copies of the mods. I get the old ones to work, but they crash after the 2 minute window. I tried the suggestions with the Options.ini but it made no difference.
