Introduction

This guide will help you fix the color issue with the game running on Windows 7.

Please follow the step-by-step instructions below:

Open a Notepad on your desktop.
Copy the codes from the box below and paste them in the Notepad.

taskkill /f /im explorer.exe dmcr.exe start explorer.exe
After having the codes in the Notepad "save as" choose "all file types" and name it "Dmcr.bat" then click "save".
Note: Ending with .bat is important.
Now move the "Dmcr.bat" file you have created to your game directory, e.g "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\American Conquest"
Run the game via the "Dmcr.bat" file you have put in the game directory.
Note: If you still see some color issues, on the menu screen, press Alt+Tab to return to desktop, and then press Alt+tab again to get back to the game.

Here's a quick slideshow video.

Good luck.
