C&C: Tiberian Dawn Unofficial Patch

[MrFlibble]

For those of you who still play the original C&C (which is now free ;D), there's an unofficial patch (v1.05) that has the following features:

*Command & Conquer now Windows XP compatible!

*You no longer need to set "Windows 95 compatible mode"

*Included updated THIPX32.DLL file, which fix LAN games support.

*Map border crash no longer happen.

Also here's the patch's homepage

I was expecting:

- true windows xp support

- true lan support again (and internet)

Dreams may come true Stefan ;)

I'm still waiting for a skirmish. Ah well, I guess that changes the program too much.

[MrFlibble]

Yeah, skirmish would be good ::) Nothing too impossible I think, but it'll take a good programmer guy with lots of enthusiasm, so we can wait and hope...

[gunner154]

Maybe borrow some of the code from Red Alert? They were, after all, using the same game engine...

The Red Alert AI is pretty dumb, but it still works I guess.

I used to think the phrase "better late than never" was universal. This is rediculous.

well if you want a skirmish,

i can probly recommend a Tiberian Sun mod called Return Of The Dawn...

its basically just TD/cnc1 with a few remaning TS elements..

theres a new version floating around atm '2.6' its not bad,

but the ealier version 2.4 has more TD like economy..

[gunner154]

Replica mods don't sit too well with me. Thanks for the suggestion anyway.

A bit late. But. Looks like good news. I wonder if it really works well. Should test it out soon.

I've Windows Vista now (new laptop), so i don't know if it will work (hence, use XP compatibility i guess?). I do wonder how this guy 'fixed' it.
