Le jeu ne fonctionne pas sur Win 10
Ma cfg :
i5 6300HQ
960m GTX
6go RAM

Sincèrement n'achetez pas ce jeu. Il n'est pas possible d'y jouer. Et aucune solution possible pour pouvoir y jouer. J'y ais joué sur CD y a quelques années. Je me suis bien amusé mais depuis 1 à 2 ans apparemment il est impossible d'y jouer avec les nouvelles version microsoft. Et si vous essayez de faire fonctionner le jeu en utilisant l'outils de mise à niveau de système d'exploitation vous arrivez au mieux à l'interface du jeu où il vous propose de jouer. Dès que vous lancez une carte ou une partie ou bien la campagne ça plante.

Heureusement Steam à remboursé très vite l'achat. Merci à eux.

Personnellement il reste mon préféré de tous les Cossacks. Je trouve les batailles plus intéressantes que sur les autres Cossacks (3 compris). Je l'ai sur CD et je l'ai repris sur steam en espérant pouvoir le faire tourner sur Win10, mais malheureusement je rencontre le même soucis que certains autres joueurs; crash sur chaque carte lancée.

Devs une "remasterisation" serait le top :)

Cossacks 2 Fix
So I have had a ton of trouble since buying this game on a whim. Didn't know anything about it. Suffice it to say, the Steam version does not work on all PC's. I've got a Gateway FX gaming laptop and can run any game on the market so my specs are fine.

Here is my work around for Cossacks after much finagling. I hope this helps you guys.

1. You need the C2_Patch_v1_2.exe (google that exact thing and download it)
2. Download Universal Extractor (google it and download it
3. Use Universal Extractor to extract the C2_Patch_v1_2.exe patch into any file you want on your desktop
4. Copy and paste extracted patch into the root folder for Cossacks 2 c:/programfiles(x86)-Steam-steamapps-common-Cossacks II Napoleonic Wars
5. Run game using startengine.exe button in root folder

This may be all you need to get it to work. However if you get the error
'Engine.exe has detected, that video memory is not configured properly. Please restart computer and set AGP Aperture size-256 Mb or more in BIOS configuration program."
you need to do another couple of steps

6. Download the c2-hoae-3d-patch.zip and copy and paste its contents into the same root folder the first patch went in and run the game using the startengine.exe button


O.k. now the game works but I can't save a file (smh why would steam allow this to be sold when its so broken?)

1. Go to the root folder.
c:/programfiles(x86)-Steam-steamapps-common-Cossacks II Napoleonic Wars
2. If there is no folder named 'Save' then create a folder named 'Save'
3. If there is a folder named 'Save' open it and delete any folders inside it (possibly says 'camp' not sure)
4. Remove the "Read-only" status from the Cossacks II Napoleonic Wars folder
-Do this by right clicking on the folder, select properties, deselect 'read-only' and hit apply (may need to do this every time you play the game...I have for some reason.)


This helped me for now. If I find other bugs and work around I'll post them here. But this is seriously pathetic and I'm filing a complaint to Steam. A game that does not work shouldn't be sold.


Edit 1:
The "Too many handlers" error seems to happen only on certain missions. My only work around is save often and beat mission as fast as possible to continue playing.

Edit 2: (omfg)
Some of the text in the game is German. Specifically building/unit names and descriptions while everything else is in English. To fix this
1. Go to root folder
c:/programfiles(x86)-Steam-steamapps-common-Cossacks II Napoleonic Wars
2. Open 'Text" folder
3. Delete file mdlist(2).txt (make sure its the one that says (2))

This fixed the problem for me. Apparently some German language files may find their way into your text folder through the screwy patch system. If this file does not exist you will have to just look through every file till you find the German stuff and delete it.

BE VERY CAREFULL before buy this game.
You must have the good graphics components, if not that don't work like me...

Attention, dans 50% des cas, que ce soit sur steam ou en version CD, ce jeun ne fonctionne pas , il lag et devient injouable. Aucun fix pour ce problème n'existe. ne faites pas l’erreur de l'acheter

Super, les graphiques ne sont pas mauvais XD, le jeux est logique.

ce jeu ne marche pas quaand je le lance

le jeu n'est pas en français comme spécifié mais en anglais. Et il plante. Problème de compatibilité directX. Déçu. Achetez la version CD plutôt que cette ♥♥♥♥♥ de ce super jeu.

!!!Important!!!

This is a great game but the "Battle for Europe" contains this game and the expansion as well and the price is the same! You dont want to buy this!
