Just got the game over a week ago and I love it, unfortunately whenever I try to launch the game with SWR.NET on, it does nothing. The launcher disappears and the game shuts down.

I have windows 10 and the game runs off of the C&C first decade version of Zero Hour.

Thanks.

1. run the launcher as admin compatibility see if that works.

2. if that does not try this.
go to the games folder where generals.exe is and run SWR.net_Unistaller.exe as admin
then from the same folder run SWR.net_Installer.exe as admin <-- (if that doesnt exist run SWRNetSetup.exe)

if all that doesnt work. fully reinstall rotr 1.85 and 1.86

I have no error or anything. it just nothing happens
when swr is disabled, i can normally launch rotr and zh

Is there a log for fail starts or something?

Thank you for helping us smile.gif

swrnet does have a log in the games folder, and the games crash log itself is in your documents folder.
atm only thing i can think of is the swrnet adapter is borked

everyone has to change their Ip in the options.
In the options theres a pair network Ip and an online ip dropdown tabs. All players must select the swr net IP from those menu's then go to swr net in the multiplayer lobby.
