Hey, after a LONG time, I'm back, biggrin.gif

Anyways, I tried playing TS+FS TFD edition again on my XP, and it won't startup.
When I tried on my Vista, it says "TS has stopped working"...
I have no mods, and latest TFD patch.


PS
When I installed my RA2+YR TFD edition on my vista, it says, "String table failed to initialize", or someting similar. Works fine on my XP.

Welcome back.

Does it throw any error messages? If it does, what does the error say?
Does the splash screen appear?

If you're using a HIPS application (for example, Comodo or Kaspersky) make sure that they are allowing Game.exe to start.

Right-click on Game.exe and select "Run as Administrator". If it doesn't help, try disabling User Account Control and see if it works.

If it still doesn't work, in what phase does the error message appear? In the splash screen or while it's initializing (you see a black screen in the initializing stage).

I can only offer the same advice as with TS; Right-click on Game(md).exe and select "Run as Administrator". If it doesn't help, try disabling User Account Control and see if it works. I haven't played RA2 for 1½ years so I don't know exactly what the error means, but a quick search at ModEnc tells that it's unable to load Ra2.csf (it's string table).
