Hi everybody,

 

Let me share a trick that allows me to play the game in windowed mode. I've noticed that when switching to windowed mode (ALT-ENTER), the game did not refresh properly.

Somehow, it has to do with desktop composition (DWM), which was introduced with Windows Vista and that the game doesn't handle well.

 

1) Navigate to the game folder, right click on "Commandos 2 HD Project.exe" and select Properties.
2) Select the Compatibility tab
2a) [Windows 7] Check "Disable desktop composition"
2b) [Windows 8/10] Check "Reduced color mode" and select 16 bits mode.
3) Validate your changes and close the dialog box by clicking OK
4) Run the game using "Comm2.exe" (launcher that enables DX11 support...) or the desktop shortcut

I have little bit of troubles with the resolution. The games it seems runs at 1920x1080 but all ingame videos and the mission briefing is visible only from 1/4 Even the menu is not right. Here are screenshots

I have latest version and I have tried the game with and even without the resolution file fix but still the same.

I think you have to launch the game from "Commandos 2 HD Project.exe" and not "comm2.exe".

Loney, you must download last version 0.9.1, where the manual and other bugs and crashes are fixed or you can download english manual posted here in this link: http://www.mediafire...9pfd/MANUAL.TXT

Hello stankan, I tried, but as for OverlordCZ, neither of these solutions worked for me. Thanks for planning to fix this.

Hi stankan,

 

Thank you very much for your work to make this incredible game perfectly playable on modern setups.

I am running the GOG version and as long as I can tell, your mod works fine (launching the game with the new exe "Commandos 2 HD Project.exe").

I'm just facing a minor issue: the manual is in Italian while I have installed the English version of your mod. I'm sadly not as fluent in Italian as in English so it would be very much appreciated if you could fix this bug.
