I got the entire Dune series, and we got Asimov's Foundation trilogy lying around here somewhere as well. Then of course, Lord of the Rings... the entire series, including The Hobbit & The Silmarillon. My parents have had them for decades, and I read 'em all a dozen times. Don't have much else, really... well besides what's on my PC. All the works of Asimov, Douglas Adams' brilliant Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, all of Lovecraft's books as html (saved from some website), and then the Discworld books. Which I really have to read.

The easiest way to kill it is cloaked firestorm fence or cloaked deactivated Laser Fence. Lure the Defender over it, activate, foom, GONE

Link to what? frankklepacki.com? And yes... Reaching Out, the C&C '80s Mix and Surf No Mercy are hidden tracks from respectively Command & Conquer, The Covert Operations and Red Alert. Though Surf No Mercy was hidden on the soundtrack, and not in the game. Its intro is used in the Counterstrike ant mission movies though. And the C&C Outtakes theme and Dune II medley just totally own. -
No idea, really... but I'm sure they got RA maps/missions at the RA Archive They also got a few (including one campaign) on the RA Techcenter²

Hehh... There's other DOS support emulators out there like the sound emulator VDMSound, which fixes 90% of all problems with old games on XP, and DOSBox, whichc is a full DOS emulator. DOSBox needs a LOT of CPU though.

WORLDWIDE WARFARE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Nyerguds replied to LinkinForcer's topic in Command & Conquer / Covert Operations
LinkinForcer... what exactly doesn't work? You say it doesn't 'play', but what exactly do you mean with that? Doesn't install? Doesn't run? What errors do you get? Anyway... did you follow the install guide for C&C and RA on XP? It'll probably help. http://www.planetcnc.com/features/techtroopers/classicsInXP/ If you got troubles downloading the patches through Gamespy... -The C&C95 XP patch can be found on WW's old FTP site. -The RA 1.08 patch can be found on the FTP site as well. You can find the 3.03 patch at the RA Techcenter. Which is technically through Gamespy as well, but it bypasses the login crap -

Cygnus.. the C&C soundtracks are NOT being sold. Never were. They were just included in special packs like the TS Platinum edition and such. Actually, those are a bit damaged sometimes. I checked them, and some stutter from time to time And Frank's site has a LOT more music. -

Oh come on. Abandonware is stuff that's no longer supported and which you can barely still find in shops ffs... with EA's support, TS & RA2 are pretty much Abandonware as well :roll: -

Bullshat. Right-clicking just gives you the Flash menu. And if not, you're just saving the HTML page, not the song. -

I got the soundtracks from Frank's site, and the tracks Frank doesn't have on the site (Untamed Land, Die, Heartbreak) I just took from my DOS C&C CD... converted from AUD. The quality is a lot less though, and they're mono... but at least I got them. -
I have no idea what you mean. The command prompt is WinXP's own DOS emulator. It's only for pure DOS, not for Win95 programs. Win95 programs ran through a DOS command prompt will start, yes... but they won't be run in compatibility mode. And normal DOS programs/games started by double-clicking the exe will start in a DOS console window anyway. If you just start ra.exe instead of ra95.exe you got the DOS mode. The sound of DOS RA will stutter though, unless you use VDMSound.

Forget THAT, Sonic. I wrote a guide on how to run DOS C&C a while ago Here ya go, Mike: http://www.planetcnc.com/cnc2sw/dos_xp.html#install
-
wtf? In XP, it's just an option in the properties of every shortcut and program. To enable Win95 compatibility in a DOS console or batch program, you have to type set __COMPAT_LAYER=Win95

C and C Red alert 1 on LAN with 3 xp pro pc's
Nyerguds replied to gamer's topic in Red Alert / Counterstrike / Aftermath
I know this is an old topic, but... I got RA1 LAN working on XP with this: http://dynamic5.gamespy.com/~ra2sw/index.p...=7#windows_xp23 All you really need is the IPX protocol and the beta 3.03 patch. As long as you stay away from the thipx32.dll patch this works fine. -
Funny detail... Warcraft 1 already had skirmish, with save function :wink:

Do you think that C&C RA1s AI totally beats the new gene
Nyerguds replied to Azrael's topic in Red Alert / Counterstrike / Aftermath
No.. they just start acting really weird after you force them to unload in the refinery. -
Then he got very very lucky... I haven't found the RA expansions anywhere. The original game is sold for 5 euro here though.

Nyerguds replied to Azrael's topic in Red Alert / Counterstrike / Aftermath
Actually, yes they are... in single player, anyway. They reduced the damage for MP games to 30% so you wouldn't be able to win a game with one shot.
