There is no need to use dxwnd or even compatibilty mode. Just copy pasting cnc-draw fixes everything and even unlocks native 1600x900 resolution. Additionally you can now use shaders.
america is not installed on target system message error appears , when I in fact did before trying to setup expansion. any help??
Found my old CDs and wound up here to actually get help in getting the game to run!
What does the Patch 4.05 English version 5 MB for the America expansion actually do?
It appears only to install and old version of Adobe Acrobat Reader
All who use WIN10 use DXWND. This emulator will make your game work as normal. Have a great nostalgy, dear players
!
so any tips for installing this on a windows 10 64bit computer? lol it just hangs up in task manager
Thanks man you brought back the good old nostalgia
Double click the cracked exe and it just goes straight to the desktop.
how do you get the original ISO to start setup. ive mounted it with daemon tools but when I click to start setup it does nothing
about the 1.02 patch:
you will need a no cd exe file after installing the patch since it also updates the exe file. which can be hard to find. Here is the direct link to 1.02 with no cd exe file: https://sourceforge.net/p/dxwnd/discussion/general/thread/dcc339614a/d891/eafd/attachment/1_02_Patch.rar
Source: https://sourceforge.net/p/dxwnd/discussion/general/thread/dcc339614a/
this game also has 1.02 patch: https://www.patches-scrolls.de/patch/317/7/19358
but apparently it causes resolution issues: any resolution above 1152x864 will crash the game when running in fullscreen mode. (pcgamingwiki)
here are the patch notes:
Dear America player,
First we would like to thank you all, who bought our game. We hope that the game has met or exceeded your expectations.
At the same time we want to apologize with all players, who have technical problems with AMERICA.
In the almost two-year development time we naturally strove to make the play as error free as possible.
Unfortunately we - like all other game developers - cannot test our software on all existing PC systems.
A PC is not a gaming console that a software directly runs. So there will always be a computer, on which a the
game does not run at all or runs very poorly.
The following problems should be recovered with the Patch of the version 1.02:
1. Units do not stop any more in the forest and hang or hang on torn down walls.
2. When Multiplayer plays against the AI the computer no longer gives up immediately.
3. The fields can be ordered automatically. As long as sufficient wood is there food is produced on fields.
If the player has insufficient wood, he will get a message.
4. When too many horses where produced that game had significant slow downs, now horses will be killed in battle to
now improve engine performance.
5. All units of a marked group or formation attack now.
6. All Single player missions are very simple to play on the level " very easy ".
7. There are no more spirit units. All units of the opponent are visible.
8. With the degree of difficulty " Very Hard " against the computer networks itself in the Multiplayer the computer
opponents.
9. The Multiplayer AI is completely revised. On the level " Very Hard " it is now very provocative, since the computer
attacks more frequently and in different places. It now also builds meaningful defenses.
10. The computer gives up, as soon as it does not have a main house, no more leader and no workers.
Thus is omitted sometimes annoying searches after the last units of the computer.
Have fun playing America
the AMERICA team
is there a way to play this game multiplayer in this day and age? thank you
Please tutorial install America expansion pack
Found the fix for not being able to start the campaign... well at least this works for me so basically you change the resolution to 1024x768 and it should work.
Good afternoon guys,
I have an issue running this one, i can't launch any campain, do you have any clue to give me ? it might be a compatibility problem
According to Mobygames:
The new Expansion Pack features two new missions from each of the game’s four different groups. Players can now command the Tomahawk Warrior, Pioneer, Gatling Gun, Ironclad Coach or the Saboteur unit. They can add a hunter, flame-thrower, bow and arrow, and farm women to their missions at a training camp, restaurant, tent of the elders and wood mill.
Full Internet gaming functionality is available through GameSpy.com. There is a new level editor. The Expansion Pack also features a re-engineered game engine providing smoother, smarter artificial intelligence, graphics and gameplay.
Not at all sure that the addon executable is necessary. It sounds like the content from the add-on is added in to the main game.
Got a Heuristic hit on AmericaAddOn.exe, but I'm FAIRLY certain that it was caused by compatibility wizard adding tasks to the task manager.
However, I CAN'T get this one to work. Does anyone have any hints?
This one DID take a WHOLE bunch of time to load in the installer like the the original part did.
No comment nor review for this game at the moment.
