Hello my friends.
Everybody asks for playing Empire Earth on Windows 8, 8.1 or new graphic cards. I try to write easy for everyone (hello spanish people haha).
1. Game stop when starting (everybody do this please)
a) SET to Windows 7 compatibility
----TRY----
2. I CAN START Empire Earth BUT graphic errors
a) GO Empire Earth graphic settings -> (look all settings) SET -> Direct3D TnL <-
b) SET 1024*768 16bit
----TRY----
3. INTEL HD GRAPHICS -> Edit Windows Registry (double click for edit)
a) CLICK START (WINDOWS BUTTON) and enter: "regedit". GO "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\SSSI\Empire Earth\Wait for VSync" CHANGE TO "0"
b) CLICK START (WINDOWS BUTTON) and enter: "regedit". GO" HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\SSSI\Empire Earth\Rasterizer Name" CHANGE TO "Direct3D Hardware TnL"
----TRY----
4. Disable anti-aliasing(fxaa) in graphic control center
a) (ATI) START -> CONTROL PANEL -> ATI Catalyst Control Panel -> SET fxaa(anti-aliasing) TO "application settings"
b) (nvidia) START -> CONTROL PANEL -> NVIDIA Control Panel -> SET fxaa(anti-aliating) TO "application settings"
----TRY----
