The Known Mismatches in MultiPlayer

1.The Mitla War Factoires Gun
if it is fired it will cause a mismatch and end the agme

2.Super Weapons General Emp Patroit System *F I X E D*
if fired it will cause a mismatch

3.The Navel Force on all sides has been known to casue mismatches

When You post a mismatch Also can you please speficy your speed of your computor and the other players
cause it just could be that your computors have lost syncrisation

4. After Building a Commanche A Mismatch Will Accure *F I X E D*

Defination of syncrisation:
if your in syncrisation
if you move a unit your enamy will see the movement as you do

if your out of syncrisation
if you move a unit your enamy will not see the movemt for Example: 10 seconds
if you you move a unit
he will not see untill 10 seconds have passed

yes i did read all the bugs in the bugs topic
so vangaurd Pin em up

HOW TO UNINSATLL PROJECT RAPTOR (all versoins)
From the Frequently Asked Questions page:

How do I uninstall Project Raptor?
Here are the steps that need to be taken to uninstall Project Raptor:

Step 1: Click on the Start button.
Step 2: Click on Control Panel.
Step 3: Click on Add/Remove Programs.
Step 4: Scroll down until you find Project Raptor 7.0.
Step 5: Click on Remove. (or uninstall)

Project Raptor is now uninstalled.

At this point you can stop; however, I highly recommend that Generals and Zero Hour also be uninstalled.

Anytime you intend to uninstall any kind of mod, (not just Project Raptor) it is highly recommended that you uninstall the mod, Generals, and Zero Hour, as well. This will prevent you from having any remnant files hanging around that uninstallers miss. These remnant files could mess up Zero Hour, or the next mod you intend to install.

To uninstall Generals and Zero Hour use the same steps as above, except in step 4 replace Project Raptor with the program that you are uninstalling. Zero Hour then Generals.

After that has been completed, then you will need to go to the following folders (using windows explorer or similar program) and delete any remaining files and folders:

C:\Program Files\EA Games\Command & Conquer Generals Zero Hour

C:\Program Files\EA Games\Command and Conquer Generals

[note exact path names may differ on your computer due to what version of windows you're using, and whether or not you're using a shared desktop or not.]

After all of that has been completed. Go ahead and reinstall all of your Generals and Zero Hour programs and patches. I know this is a lot of work but it will save you a ton of headaches in the future. Trust me on this one.

thx for bob

Many PR PLayers are experincing techincal issues with the Command And Conquar First Decade
Project Raptor was not desgined under TFD(the first decade) there fore it will not work

TFS is assemvbled Differntly then just the plain zero Hour Becasue all the folders have been moved around and beeen put in differnt places

Quote Form Bob

Another possible option for TFD users to play the Project Raptor 7.0 mod is to download a mod-switching program called Mod-Toaster. I have heard very recently that ModToaster will work with TFD, but I can't confirm this to be true or not. I suggest logging on to their forum site to confirm whether or not this is accurate info.

Stay tuned for further updates on this problem.

I'm running on amd 2600+, win 2000 with radeaon 9000 atlantis, the sync error appear when a number of unit 10-20 goes to attack me or viceversa, other player as a neuver pc than my, the type of connection are direct ip tunneling in vpn with adsl on the two side.
The out of sync apparently appear about 10-15 min of starting match.

All other side works great and never lost syncronization with a lot number of unit on the confilict and a large number of superweapon ex. 4-5 nuclear and 5-6 scud.
I have also tried usa naval force without lost sync.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

From EA Tech support:
Q: What do you do when you start getting a synch or mismatch error in Generals?

A: This error comes up when two or more systems are connected online together. When the computers stop sending the same packets the fall out of sync, this error pops up. These synchronization errors happen for various reasons. Background programs obstructing the flow of information, modified game code or maps, or possibly corrupt game files.

My Comments:
Under the heading of ‘modified game code’ (which Project Raptor is a whopping big modification of Generals - Zero Hour), the bugs listed by Karl (above) are the known bugs that are directly related to Project Raptor at this time.

Vanguard (Project Raptor’s creator) is aware of these particular bugs, and is attempting to fix the ones that he can fix. This however, may take some time. Please be patient. In the meantime stay away from the generals listed above in Karl’s post. Thank you.

Hi
When playing PR v.5.0 at LAN multiplayer mode, after few games, it starts to fail with error message "The game detected a mismatch. It means that the game lost synchronization...." e.c. First time the game ran on 4 stations correctly. Then during the same session of Windows, without reboot or system crashes the game failed on 4 workstations, than on 3, and at least on 2 workstations also. We tried: 1.reinstall the PR. 2.reinstall the generals fully. 3.change network settings in file ...\Zero Hour\Data\INI\GameData.ini. After changing the paremeters NetworkDisconnectTime to 15000 ms and NetworkDisconnectScreenNotifyTime to 30000 ms, the game ran on 2 workstations without fails. On 3 workstations the game failed. after reboot and/or reinstall the game failed while running multiplayer on 2 workstations. System and software information for all workstations: Generals zero Hour version 1.00, Windows XP Home Edition 5.1.2600, Sempron 1.44GHz/512MB RAM/VGA nVidia FX 5200/LAN 100 Mb/sec. No changes were provided in LAN settings, firewall settings or other settings of LAN or workstations.
If U can help anything, will be very grateful.
E-mail me to addresses ngraf@yandex.ru or graf.zero@gmail.com.

Kirboni, you have to go to: "Add or Remove Programs" and look down the list for PR. then remove it, and do a repair of ZH.

it doesn't work like that... the CD knows what the number is and it won't let you use a different one. However i think there is a way to get it off the CD...i'm going to go check now...

If you lose your game code unlocker mababer, you can go to EA with your purchasing information. If it's valid, they give you a new #.
