Run all the updates and reinstalled Gentools (8.9), now game only offers lower resolutions for play.

Any idea on if there is going to be some new gaming patch?

Hope someone has an idea.....Im having same Issue

Is the source code available for Gentools? If not then all we can do is hope for a patch from the original author.

 

In the meantime, set the resolution as high as you can. It will be 4:3 aspect ratio, sure, but when in windowed mode it should still be playable.

 

Add "-win" to the command line for windowed mode.

 

Edit: I suppose you could always downgrade. I hear 1.04 is compatible. Just got to fight Steam after that, as it will be hell-bent on updating that game for you if you turn your back for even second.

 

Edit again: Here's the SteamCMD commands:

 

Generals:
download_depot 2229870 2229871 1620673903237505765

Zero Hour:
download_depot 2732960 2732961 9035675963097143509

 

Copy Generals.exe and Game.dat from the downloaded manifests into your game directories and Gentools is back to working as it should.
