solution for Direct X error msgs for old games CC Generals Zero Hour ETC

Question

GO AND CHANGE THE RESOLUTION SCREEN OF YOUR GRAPHIC CARD. Looks Crap comparing to 4K or HD large screen

But just changing works magic.

not deleting anything, modifying anything, NOR turning your darn screen to horzontal / landscape / other orientation....

goodness..... took me 3 years following clowns until one fella pointed out here in the forums that chaning his resolution in AMD graphic card software works.

mine is nvdia and using the nvdia control-driver software to change resolution MAKES THE GAME RUNNIN

be it Total annilation or generals or old C&C. GOODNESS ME/

@minabooeh Just like here (https://answers.ea.com/t5/C-C-The-Ultimate-Collection/Direct-X-8-1-error-affecting-Command-amp-Conquer-Generals-and/m-p/8848412/highlight/true#M18000) I don't really know what you mean. You can also just change the resolution in the options.ini file and use Gentool to even do this in-game. You really don't need the NVidia or AMD-control panel for this... The DirectX-error often does just point to a error with dbghelp.dll or not having the older DX9/8.1 installed. Can you maybe explain in detail what error you got and exactly how you fixed it, because your messages are a bit hard to read/follow 🙂
