Hi Bruce! I have C&C World War II v.0.28 mode installed, but I cannot adjust the zoom out, even editing the GameData.ini file it doesn't work. I use to play on MaxCameraHeight = 1000 gives a nice view. Is there a way to zoom out?
No, There are no way to Adjust the zoom out in that option windows. I hate playing with that gigantic Command Center on my screen. any ideas? thanks @@usa_bruce4295
this program is great my friends used it but when I open genlauncher on my laptop windows 10 I get an error called no connection to github and it doesn't want to connect to internet at all although genpatcher and gen tool and github are all connected to internet and I can play online in zero hour could you please help me?
I found a bug on ROTR and shockwave skirmish map preview screen. There is no map detail only supply and strating spot shown. Instead you have grey sreeen with " no signal" write in red. I tried to replace the mapcache.ini but did not fix the problem. Do you an idea ?
Hey quick question (probably small issue) but after every match, sometimes even during, "Maximum Particle Count" slider gets reset to zero, which as it suggests, results in there being no fire/explosion/trail/smoke effects, which can after a few good matches get really really frustrating, how to fix this? I always set that slider to maximum, although I am not sure if it's a big difference since the recommended settings adjust it to 2500, can you please give me a tip on this?
Check your options.ini file in your doccuments/zero hour I think thats what that part modifies If that files number resets then please tell me If not, It could just be a genlauncher default thing
@@usa_bruce4295 So I tried it at 2500 instead, and it did not reset it, but it seems that atleast on 50000 it resets even mid-game, I am guessing the higher you go, the most likely it is to reset, is this something you can fix? I like big explosions and effects, but the slider resets are so annoying
@@usa_bruce4295 I mean in the GenLauncher options, you are able to set the particle count setting all the way to 50,000, do you mean that setting it that high doesn't give anything?
@@pliqmilen I spoke to a professional who knows the game and engine he told me: "50k cap can actually break things i've tested it causes major artifacting you can set the cap higher than what the game itself allows but going past the normal limit will lead to artifacts" So I guess we're both wrong He told me not to go past the normal limit
Not sure if you're still following this. After downloading GenLauncher as per your provided link; I ended up with a Explorer Logo instead of a stack of books. Not sure if I'm missing a step. Thank you for your time.
@@usa_bruce4295 Thanks for your quick response. On Shockwave, which have only just started, "Blasted Lands" Air Force Gen vs China Infantry, China had one dozer and didn't build.

In GenLauncher, it has the camera level under Options. Use that.
What does it mean when downloading a mod in the add a mod list, when a message comes up and says "safe handle is closed"?
You can ask the creator in his discord but I think it means that you are in control of things.
No safety precautions? Thats my guess

I dont even think 50k is something you could see at screen at any one given time.
So the big number there is an illusion to you pal.

I spoke to a professional who knows the game and engine
he told me:
"50k cap can actually break things
i've tested
it causes major artifacting
you can set the cap higher than what the game itself allows
but going past the normal limit will lead to artifacts"
So I guess we're both wrong
He told me not to go past the normal limit
my ZH is from steam and i cannot find the way to open its file location so i can put gen launcher in there,any help?
