Your antivirus program prevents Syringe to inject Ares into YR.

 

 

Just as an update, I deleted my AV software and the same exact error comes up. I am clueless as what to do. I hate to be such bother, but do you have any other suggestions? Thanks.

Can you read syringe.logs? I doubt so. Upload one. Try admin mode regardless.

Here it is. (It looks to be the same as the previous log I uploaded)...

Ran in admin mode.

I have tried installing on a different computer, and now i get this after installing .net framework 2.0:       Mental Omega Launcher has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience. If you were i the middle of something, the information you were working on might be lost. please tell Microsoft about this problem. We have created an error report that you can send to help us improve Mental Omega Launcher. We will treat this report as conidential and anonymous.     Any help  on this one?

The launcher needs .NET 3 or 3.5, not 2.0.

No idea why that would happen really, try using 'Add/remove programs' instead?

The same problem occurs

 

btw the problem with the mod is that when i click to play the game (from the launcher) nothing at all happens. Nothing loads up, yet no errors are shown.

 

 

Hello I have a problem when i launch it seems installed but when i launch it says: The procedure entry point _BinkSetVolume@8 cuold not be located in the dynamic link library binkw32.dll.

Wrong installation folder. You didn't install to RA2/YR folder.

Thank you, you are a godsend, my MO now works on my Desktop and my Laptop as well. This looks like thee best YR mod, and I can't wait to try it out! Thanks again!

Thank You it worked perfectly!

[someonebutnoone]

When I try to delete wsock32.dll, it always "File in Use" and says it's used on Syringe Main Executable/

[mafiaren1]

Yeah Windows 8.1 does that. We don't like Windows 8 or 8.1

 

Okay, that's that I thought. Neither do I, Speeder.

Well, maybe I should wait until Ares fixes that error for Win 8 or just the new update.

Even though, I liked the new units, some graphic changes, the plot... all the rest.

 

Happy Holidays!

Did you install Mental Omega 3.0 in the Red Alert 2 directory? If you have The First Decade version, double check it.

Should go to something like C:\Program Files (x86)\EA Games\Command & Conquer The First Decade\Command & Conquer Red Alert™ II\RA2

What do you mean directory

Any fix for black screen issue? :(

Even I was playing not with CnC Net

I got a black screen fix. Did it on a ASUS Laptop with GEFORCE GT 520M graphic board and windows 7... it took me 2 years to find what it was, and it was extremely simple... (Very embarrassing)
Update all drivers Chek the Directx -->

*     Load up both the 32bit and 64bit DirectX Control Panels and enable Hardware Acceleration:

*     Start -> All Programs -> Microsoft DirectX SDK (March 2008) -> DirectX Utilities ->
    DirectX Control Panel -> DirectDraw -> Tick "Hardware Acceleration" -> Click OK

*     Start -> All Programs -> Microsoft DirectX SDK (March 2008) -> DirectX Utilities (64-Bit)
    -> DirectX Control Panel -> DirectDraw -> Tick "Hardware Acceleration" -> Click OK

*    Go to ´Ra2.ini´ change:
    [Video]
    AllowHiResModes=yes
    AllowVRAMSidebar=yes
    VideoBackBuffer=no
    ScreenWidth= *Laptop Resolution*
    ScreenHeight=*Laptop Resolution*
    StretchMovies=yes

Hope it helps some players, to fix this Black death (T)error..

[Thats me!]

it seems i can't get the game to launch except in windowed mode.

Whenever i try to run it in Full screen mode, all i see is either the ares screen or the loading screen, however after a while i can hear the music and it seems that the menu is there too, but i don't see it.

 

Computer Specs:

Windows 8

Intel core i3 (2 x 2.40 Ghz)

Nvidia Geforce GT 325M

4 GB RAM

 

it isn't that bad since i can still run the game, but would be really good if i could run it in fullscreen.

[Graion Dilach]

Win8.

[Thats me!]

Win8.

i somehow knew it *sweatdrops*

Hey there guys,

I've been following this mod forever, but unfortunately I don't have Windows (or Mac btw) at the time, but I do have Xubuntu (Linux).

 

Basically the situation is:

I know my Linux system can run the game because I can run Red Alert 2, and Yuri's Revenge without problem.

 

The problem I have is with the Mental Omega Launcher, which upon clicking "Launch Mental Omega", I get this:

 

Since I know the game CAN play with ease, the problem lies in executing Syringe.  Could you give me a manual way to run Syringe..  Because it is appropriate, here is the log, which is quite brief.

Syringe.log

 

[20:42:25] Syringe 0.7.0.2

[20:42:25] ===============

 

[20:42:25] WinMain: lpCmdLine = "gamemo.exe -CD -LOG"

[20:45:12] WinMain: ERROR: No command line arguments given, exiting...

[20:45:12] WinMain: Exiting on failure.

 

Thank-you.. Can't wait to be able to play ; )

btw, I'm quite surprised more Linux users don't play MO

 

I'm using Xubuntu too.

 

I tried running the game with PlayOnLinux (Wine GUI) to avoid any messups.

 

> Created a new Virtual Hard Drive from scratch

> Using Wine 1.7.9 as suggested.

> Installed .NET 1.x, 2.x and 4.x

> Installed RA2 and YR. Runs properly.

> Installed MO 3.0.

> MOLauncher crashes.

 

The error is:

 

Signature -

 

Even Type: clr20r3

P1: molauncher.exe

P2: 1.0.0.0

...

P9: system.io.filenotfoundexception

 

And bunch of other data.

 

Tried all the troubleshot options and no dice.

Launcher needs .NET 3.0 or 3.5.

[deso]

Steps taken on Xubuntu:

echo 0 | sudo tee /proc/sys/kernel/yama/ptrace_scope

As described in http://www.playonlin...atal_error.html

 

> Install dotnet30sp1 component

> Revert to 1.4.1

> Install dotnet35sp1 component

 

And it manages to run...

 

 

... but it freezes when a skirmish takes place.

 

Tried with different wine versions -  1.7.9, 1.6, 1.5.26. No dice.

 

EDIT: It's likely that's a error in my part since it also freezes on Yuri's.

 

EDIT 2: Found the culprit. I decided to install fglrx, ATI's propietary graphic drivers. I reverted back to OSS and it managed to run the game, although with a very nasty bug:

 

http://bugs.winehq.o...ug.cgi?id=29700

 

It's not impossible to play, just requires constantly moving the mouse in order to play the game.

 

 

Hope this information helps people trying to run their game on Linux / Mac.

Interesting. I still haven't got time for my setups on Kubuntu, so thank you for this information. I also have a Radeon card so probably tomorrow I'll follow your steps to reproduce that issue.
