Windows 8 r1q2 problems

[marajsha666]

After annoying trip to start r1q2 on win8 i found the possibilities maybe somebody find much better options:
in tdm directory in autoexec write only 5xvid_restart just like that
vid_restart
vid_restart
vid_restart
vid_restart
vid_restart

if doesnt work in your graphics card managaer for example amd catalist manager in gaming 3d settings add r1q2.exe and apply, oor more if doesnt work in properties of r1q2 in compatibility section change to windows 7 compatibility and appply or if doesnt work try to start r1q2 not in fullscreen and connect with this all or somes. If crashes try another one more time (if u remeber possible of crashing r1q2). But u can do something more when u  connect to server without fullscreen u can use very speedly alt+enter when u see the game but u must do immedetly press to pass crashing r1q2 just like railing hehe...
If your r1q2 no start dont enable win 7 compatibillity
I think the resolutions is problem with starting r1q2 in custom resolution just like command vid_height vid_width vi_forceheight vid_forcewidth just like your windows max rsolution good strat (for example egl is connecting with vid_height vid_with just like your win resolution. You can try  to write in your shortcut properties +set game tdm... vid_flip_on_switch 1 can help too in autoexecs...
Have Fun Really workz

Definitely having crashes in R1Q2 on win 8. Didn't have this problem before. (Haven't played in quite some time)

Only change I can think of is adding a second monitor (which meant reactivating my onboard video). Stock q2 runs fine. I'll do some more trouble shooting later today I think.
