Yes, you were right! 🎉 Using INSTALL.EXE (the DOS installer from The Covert Operations) via DOSBox (within Wine) simply copied 4 relevant files LOCAL.MIX, SC-000.MIX, SC-001.MIX, SPEECH.MIX from the expansion CD into my game folder. Running C&C95.EXE now shows a new menu item for the expansion missions. Thank you very much for your help!

Aha! Thank you very much for your response. That sounds great So I guess that means if I can get the (DOS) installer from my The Covert Operations CD to install into my existing (Windows) game folder in Wine, C&C95 will show the expansion? I will have to try that...

👍 Gotcha, thanks

Hmm... not sure what I'm doing wrong then. I have the CD version which seemingly only contains DOS binaries. (Which don't run with Wine, which is what I'm using to run my C&C95.) It's been a long time... and I don't remember what I did back then on my actual Windows 95 PC. I feel like I did play the expansion in SVGA, too. But then I found this: From: https://cncnz.com/games/command-conquer/covert-operations/ So you're saying the DOS binaries (if I can get them to run) will run in SVGA?

The Covert Operations was released in 1996, a year earlier than the Windows port C&C95 in 1997. So were you ever able to play the expansion in SVGA on Windows, or was it only playable on DOS in 320x200?

Thanks for the reply But it is just a known bug, yes? It's not an Easter egg or something where I have to do something specific for this mission to start

Found something: From https://forums.cncnet.org/topic/3294-lets-play-command-amp-conquer-all-maps-all-missions/page/3/#comment-31185 Sooo... it's a bug? Any way to load missions without messing with the files?

After finishing SCG04EA, I do get two arrows on the following mission select screen, but no matter where I click, it's always SCG05EA which starts next. I can't seem to get SCG05EB to start. Is there a trick to it? Thanks :)
