Hm, looks like I never posted that here, but I made a custom installer for the 3.03 patch, and wrote a 3-step guide to install the game on 64-bit systems.
Thanks! I try :)
Oh, I noticed the videos pack uploaded here is missing the videos of the expansion pack. It's only about 6 action sequences (an additional 14mb), but still, kinda silly not to have them.
A full updated pack can be found here...
Since I just released v1.06c revision 2, I thought it was about time to update the main post here. Feel free to mirror the new patch, Nutter ;)
At the moment it just links to the ModDB download page.
And talking about ModDB, I wrote a length article there showing off the features of this new...
The videos pack isn't required at all, otherwise I wouldn't have offered it as separate download.
The video mode error is unrelated to the videos pack. It means the game can't switch to fullscreen mode. Do you happen to be running on a laptop which doesn't support 1024x768?
The new 1.06c...
The "if I installed it on vista 64 using the original cd" would give some serious problems, yes... that just plain doesn't work.
Note that you CAN play with your original CDs after installing this pack, which saves you from downloading the videos pack. All you need to do for that is go to the...
It's possible, by copying the files from the INSTALL folder on the CD to a new folder you make, and then using the 3.03 beta-patch to get it running. That way you'll be missing some registry stuff though.
The patch can be found here. There's some more fixes there too, and my popular "small...
Ehh, dragging to select should work fine. It just doesn't work for adding ADDITIONAL units to a group. Though you can kinda get around that by naming large attack forces with [ctrl]+[number], and then just selecting the additional units and using [shift]+[number] to add that group's unit to the...
Crap, you're right. I checked my own version. The MD5 should be bb6b895a5954583b0ca2a3bf1d7b757b
Something must've gone wrong when I uploaded it to my site. I'll re-upload it right away.
Oh, and it can't really be distributed in a simple archive... the installer also does a bit of registry...
Scores.mix IS the biggest file in there (it's the game music), so I guess if the download goes wrong, that's usually the first affected file.
Anyway, thek, try re-downloading, and if it doesn't work from the local link, try the one on my site (the link to the fan patch project in the topic post).
Woah, Hocus Pocus... I remember playing the shareware version of this game. Thanks for this!
btw, the link to this thread in the DOS games thread is corrupt. Can you fix that plz? There's a [b] tag inside the url for some reason.
The Gold Edition (basically, hi-res Windows port) of Command & Conquer 1 was released as freeware by Electronic Arts, to celebrate the 12th anniversary of the Command & Conquer franchise.
This installer gives you the full game, with all game music, playable without CDs, and upgraded with the...
