aidenpons Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 Does your game run diskless? Check the size of the .icd file in the installation folder. If it's 0, then your game runs diskless. If it's not 0, then you need the disk to run. Grab the open LegoRR1.wad, open the .cfg with text editor of your choice (Notepad WILL suffice for now) and find "DontPlayAVIs" at around line 100. Set that to TRUE. Save the cfg and recompile LegoRR1.wad (don't forget that last bit). If that doesn't work... try running it in it could help...

GooseBums Posted February 27, 2015 Author Share Posted February 27, 2015 that worked! But now the game crashes when i start a mission every time........ And i cant run it in windowed mode. Not even if a set my monitor to 16 bit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
le717 Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 Im using ATI Crossfire and the original CD Cyrem knows more specific version numbers, but any ATI/AMD GPU driver released in the last few years absolutely break LRR, with no fix found at all. If this is your case, I don't know of anything you can do. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aidenpons Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 that worked! Which part in particular? And i cant run it in windowed mode. Not even if a set my monitor to 16 bit What are you using to launch the game? Try running it straight off the .exe, and don't use the "Standard" or "Advanced" shortcuts. But now the game crashes when i start a mission every time........ Now that also sounds like the videos are being silly, so you WILL need to do what I said a little earlier: Grab the open LegoRR1.wad, open the .cfg with text editor of your choice (Notepad WILL suffice for now) and find "DontPlayAVIs" at around line 100. Set that to TRUE. Save the cfg and recompile LegoRR1.wad (don't forget that last bit). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GooseBums Posted February 28, 2015 Author Share Posted February 28, 2015 Which part in particular? not quite sure but the game opens now... What are you using to launch the game? Try running it straight off the .exe, and don't use the "Standard" or "Advanced" shortcuts. Im starting the game straight off the exe. Grab the Wad Recycler, open LegoRR1.wad, open the .cfg with text editor of your choice (Notepad WILL suffice for now) and find "DontPlayAVIs" at around line 100. Set that to TRUE. Save the cfg and recompile LegoRR1.wad (don't forget that last bit). Do you mean that i have to change it in both files? or just the wad file? And how long does the Wad Recycler have to processing the LegoRR1.wad file?... Its been setting like that for one and a half hour now.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GooseBums Posted February 28, 2015 Author Share Posted February 28, 2015 the game crashes with every start now. I can even get to the menu.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aidenpons Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 And how long does the Wad Recycler have to processing the LegoRR1.wad file?... Its been setting like that for one and a half hour now.... WHAT THE ! Grapheme! This is the second time something has CRASHED HORRIBLY while using the Wad Recycler! HALP Anyway, to try and find a solution I'll just grab an original LegoRR1.wad, do what needs to be done, and send it off to ya. Watch this space. EDIT: http://oresome.rockraidersunited.com/download/233 Here you are. Extract the .zip, grab the LegoRR1.wad file inside and replace your other LegoRR1.wad.

Now the game opens and start perfectly but the game is still closing whenever i try to start a mission. Just after the loading is done I start the game whit the exe and im using the RGB Emulation Microsoft Direct3D RGB Software Emulation and in full screen since I can`t open it in Window Mode Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aidenpons Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 I start the game whit the exe and im using the <large amounts of spaces? RGB Emulation Microsoft Direct3D RGB Software Emulation <more spaces> 1) What do those spaces mean? Why are they there? 2) So... what are you using? Don't use RGB Emulation. Try Direct3DHAL, which should work better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GooseBums Posted March 3, 2015 Author Share Posted March 3, 2015 1. nothing just so you could see it better ... 2. The game would even start whit Direct3DHAL. my screen flashes and nothing happens... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aidenpons Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 1. nothing just so you could see it better ... Aha. 2. The game would even start whit Direct3DHAL. my screen flashes and nothing happens... "Would?" Surely "wouldn't?" I'm confused... again. What are you using, and what is the result? Wait a minute... earlier you said Now the game opens and start perfectly but the game is still closing whenever i try to start a mission. ...and now you say it won't start at all? What'd you change in the meantime? (It's about two posts up). Also, sadly I think le717 is correct: Im using ATI Crossfire and the original CD Cyrem knows more specific version numbers, but any ATI/AMD GPU driver released in the last few years absolutely break LRR, with no fix found at all. If this is your case, I don't know of anything you can do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GooseBums Posted March 4, 2015 Author Share Posted March 4, 2015 "Would?" Surely "wouldn't?" I'm confused... again. What are you using, and what is the result? i mean wouldn`t start whit the Direct3DHAL The game will only start whit RGB Emulation. Also, sadly I think le717 is correct: hmm okay then i think i just give up now... But thanks anyway for the help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aidenpons Posted March 6, 2015 Share Posted March 6, 2015 The game will only start whit RGB Emulation. and that has never helped anybody in the history of RRU. No wonder, you had me confused. I'm quite surprised you even got as far as the level select screen: mine doesn't like even the main menu. But yes, if you're using Direct3DHAL and have a Radeon graphics card... there's not much you can do. (and yes it has taken me a good ten posts to get this when I could have nicked it off the original topic post but hey, I tried ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DerpinGoose Posted March 6, 2015 Share Posted March 6, 2015 I had this problem too, but I fixed it. Right click your desktop and click AMD Catalyst Control Center (If available). Go to the tab Picture scaling and turn GPU scaling on. This fixed it for me! I also followed the steps by Grapheme: Other solutions to try for problems Run the game with compatibility mode for Windows 98 or Windows XP. Turn on 'Disable Visual Themes' and 'Disable Desktop Composition'. Run the game in administrator mode. Run the game in windowed mode. aidenpons 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
