Well, every time I load my mod onto YR, the game will maybe have a 50 percent chance of running smoothly, but when I restart the game, YR will freeze at the loading part after you have clicked "start game".

The only possiblility to end the game is to log off... even end processes would not work. After I log off, and log in again, and tries to start the game again, it would freeze even before it shows the EA and Westwood logos, and this time if you try to log off again, it will FREEZE AT LOG OFF!!!

So then I'll have to perform a forced shutdown: Hold the power button for 10 seconds...

I don't want to restart every time I want to start the game a second time, all the files in my mod are Rulesmd.ini, Artmd.ini, Soundmd.ini, and 4 SHP files...

What is wrong?

I find it hard to believe that it's "just" your mod dong all that. Does the game run fine without any mods & are you having any other problems with your computer?

I had a similar problem like that myself, I believe NP was causing it. I dont know about your start up situation, that sounds like it may be a scratched disk, but the shut down part was happening when I used NP.

Wait, wait, wait!

The disk and the original game and Windows are all fine... when I play the game with, let's say, normal YR, UMP, NPatch, RockPatch, Launch Base, and all of the other mods, it is fine... but... somehow ONLY my mod causes this problem...

Dump your mod into some dark place you don't use, and start a new one. If you have the same problems, then we compare the two, and get somewhere.

I tried the mod you sent me & it worked fine without any problems, so it is probably Windows or a hardware problem.

I played one game with each side, restarting the game in between each one & had no problems what so ever.

Have you tried a complete uninstall and reinstall?

if he copied and pasted some stuff one at a time, wouldnt he know whats the problem once the game stops working? :3 its what i did about 10 times. better then just starting over. imo atleast.
