SCREENSAVERS AND POWER SAVERS

Screen savers and power savers can cause problems while playing Empires if they
are activated while you are in the game. Activision recommends disabling all
screensavers and power savers before starting.

MONITORS

Please make sure your monitor supports the game resolution you are trying to
play in. To check what resolutions your monitor supports, do the following:
1. Open up My Computer
2. Double-click on Control Panel
3. Find the Display icon and open it.
4. Choose the Settings tab.
5. Locate the resolution pointer in the Desktop Area box and drag it to the
far right.

The resolution choice shown is the maximum resolution your monitor is capable
of displaying. If you do not want to change to this resolution now, select
cancel. Your Desktop Area should be set to the game resolution you are trying
to play in or higher.

NOTE: Please make sure your monitor type is properly specified to insure
correct reporting of available video resolutions.

DUAL MONITORS

You may experience problems with playing Empires on two monitors. Activision
recommends disabling your second monitor before playing Empires to avoid such
issues from arising.

TASK SWITCHING WHILE PLAYING EMPIRES

If you task switch while playing Empires, it could cause serious issues with
the game. Using ALT-TAB or CTRL-ESC while playing Empires is not recommended,
especially during game load screens.

FIREWALL PORTS

If you are behind a firewall, you must open the following ports in order to
play Empires multiplayer:

6500 TCP
13139 UDP
27900 UDP
28900 TCP
29900 TCP
29901 TCP
33321 UDP
33335 TCP

NOTE: Activision in no way supports using firewalls while playing Empires:
Dawn of the Modern World. Activision recommends disabling all firewall
hardware and software before playing the game on-line.

CHANGING GRAPHICS SETTINGS IN GAME

If you change some of the graphics settings in-game, it may require a restart
of Empires for these changes to take effect.

CHANGING RESOLUTIONS AND SHADOWS

If you are changing resolutions to a 16-Bit setting, this could result in the
shadows options being disabled in the settings menu. To resolve the issue,
change your resolution to a 32-Bit color option. NOTE: Shadow Options and
32-Bit color are only intended for high performance machines.

USING GEFORCE CARDS TO PLAY THE EMPIRES DEMO

If you are experiencing poor performance or crashing while playing the Empires
Demo with a GeForce card, please turn the Texture Shaping and Anisotropic
filtering down on your card. If you are unsure how to do this, please refer to
your video card’s manual or nVidia’s website:

http://www.nvidia.com/

If you are playing on Windows 98 with a GeForce 3 Ti500 with the latest drivers
(version 45.23), you may experience issues starting the game. If you are
experiencing these issues, try using the previous version of these drivers
(version 44.03).

PROBLEMS STARTING THE GAME

If you are experiencing problems starting the Empires Demo, please try the
following things:
- Make sure the drivers for your video card are the latest version. To find
the latest drivers, visit your card manufacturer or chipset manufacturer’s
website.
- Make sure your video card is a supported chipset and has at least 32MB of
RAM.
- Make sure the 3D hardware acceleration is turned all the way up. You can
check this by running dxdiag.exe, clicking on the Display tab, and making sure
all of your DirectX features on this page are marked “enabled.”
- Make sure you have the latest version of DirectX. This can be downloaded at:
