wegman58 -> WINDOWS 10 - SLOW (11/26/2017 7:31:11 PM)

I have a Windows 10 computer, 16 Gig RAM, 3.40 GHZ Processor AND if I boot up War Plan Orange I can wait seconds for the map to move or a menu to open. Any known workarounds?




zakblood -> RE: WINDOWS 10 - SLOW (11/27/2017 3:47:47 AM)

please take a look at any of my windows 10 guides, any may help

http://www.matrixgames.com/forums/tm.asp?m=4387060

not done one for this game, but can do one if needed, but same rules apply to almost all of them tbh, and will show simple tips and how to on almost everything on windows 10 to get a older game working




wegman58 -> RE: WINDOWS 10 - SLOW (11/28/2017 9:40:51 AM)

I'll try that when I get a chance.




zakblood -> RE: WINDOWS 10 - SLOW (11/28/2017 10:52:41 AM)

ok no worries hope it helps for you




RyanCrierie -> RE: WINDOWS 10 - SLOW (12/25/2017 4:13:20 AM)

fix this by:

1.) Copying your War Plan Orange.exe and then renaming the copy WPO.exe

2.) Create a Text File labelled WPO_Affinity.txt

Inside that text file, put:

start /affinity 1 WPO.exe

Rename text file to

WPO_Affinity.bat

And run that every time you want to play WPO. It will start it in core affinity mode for the first CPU in your computer.

I tried this and it didn't work for me. I even tried the guide by zak and NO JOY. It went to the loading screen, loaded the files and then went blank. I could hear music in the background, but then nothing. I had to logout of Win 10 to get back to my main screen.

Windows 10 Pro Ver 1709 Build 16299.309
Intel i7-7700HQ CPU @ 2.80GHz, 2801 Mhz, 4 Core(s), 8 Logical Processor(s)
RAM 32.0 GB
Intel HD Graphics 630
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060

Not sure if dual video is the problem, though I can dedicate either one to the game.

Thx.

i ask and do one just for this game and see if i can get my head around it, shouldn't be that hard as others so far have all worked fine, only 2 in the whole game collection refuse to work with windows 10 so far, but they were also fussy with windows 7 and 8 etc

Great! Thanks. Miss playing.

Another note, do the command switches for WitP work with WPO?




zakblood -> RE: WINDOWS 10 - SLOW (4/23/2018 7:56:04 AM)

will get a test sorted and finished and post results this week asap

Any success? I thought I had it working but it kept crashing after a couple of turns.

Will do, thanks.

BTW, are there any updated scenarios for WPO? The only one I have "WPO Dreadnaughts at War" has a couple of corrupted files. I have not been able to find another.

The few scenarios I have found are mainly for PBEM or hotseat which I don't do.

Thanks Zak - I reinstalled per your instructions and the game is finally playable for me after many months of trying everything I read on the boards. I am a fan of keeping it simple and you nailed it!
