    Countdown!

    With a lot of fireworks, Croatia has entered 2011! Sretna Nova godina

    Countdown!

    In Croatia, 11 more hours. Here in Split it's a nice, sunny, relatively warm day. Only things you can hear are occasional bangs from firecrackers (it's almost folklore how kids injure themselves with those) and traffic which is smaller than usual.
  3. Thank you. If you have ever played Star Trek: Elite Force 1 and 2 (best Star Trek games alongside the Armada series and Bridge Commander), you'd know that the Hazard Suit is designed for special away missions that only the specially trained Hazard Team is trained to solve. The (un)fortunate team members need to run and jump quite a bit, so regular uniforms are inconvenient. You can find more info on that on Memory Beta, the non-canon ST wiki here: http://memory-beta.wikia.com/wiki/Hazard_team

    Almost nothing is translated. You can PM me a list of words I need to translate.
  5. Ah, 2010 will always stay in our hearts as the lamest year as far as C&C is concerned. Hopefully, 2011 will bring much better C&C-related news and revive the community. Happy New Year!

    Error loading ZH or Generals

    I think we're steering a bit too much away from the initial meaning of this topic. If trunkskgb has an antivirus with an active protection service (like Symantec Endpoint Protection), then he couldn't have Sality (who knows how old that virus is?). If he doesn't, than he is pretty much on his own now, presuming he has Sality. MS-DOS and NT are not the same, story ended. trunkskgb didn't answer to any of our possible solutions, so maybe it's best that we wait until he says: did he manually delete all mod files, or if not - did he install Generals in the same directory as before; is Generals patched to 1.08 and ZH to 1.04; is the game legit. Also, you might want to take a look at this little guide written by Johnnyxp64

    Actually, you can call it up while loading the OS by hitting F8 like a maniac until it shows up

    Error loading ZH or Generals

    Yes, we've all experienced overheating, but only with those games our computers can barely run on minimal detail. This summer I've pretty much tortured my PC with StarCraft II and hi-detail Kane's Wrath. But that is only because I don't have an air conditioner at home, while everyone else has one. Overheating on 7 almost 8 year old games on a computer with 2,8 GHz and 6 GB RAM, as trunkskgb has, is impossible. Plus, that error window is written like that for people who don't know what to do when the game crashes. Viruses and overheating hardware are only implied to be the cause, but no viruses specifically effect generals.exe or generalsZH.exe, and overheating is possible only if you can hear your PC moan. I've had dealings with that error window before, but those errors turned out to be only wrongly written mod stuff. @trunkskgb, did you make sure you manually deleted all Tiberian Dawn Redux files from that folder? If not, you may have put the game in the same directory as you did before, along with left-over files from the mod.

    Error loading ZH or Generals

    Overheating to measures so great that you can't play a 2003 game on such a computer is totally out of the question. You didn't read the error at all. It always says that errors may come from viruses, overheating software, etc., but none can affect ZH nowadays. Is that Generals/Zero Hour patched to the latest version, and is it legit?

    Oh, BTW, Croatian translations for the site are almost non-existant. Maybe I can help you with that? Also, the Bosnian version shows an XML error since this summer.

    That just made me create my CNC Tube account The only thing that isn't affected by this facelift is the profile view screen. It doesn't even have the site's logo
  12. What is there to like in Generals/Zero Hour? A campaign with absolutely no storyline, boring units? In RA3 you at least know why you're fighting a battle in SP and how close you are to the end, and it has the units and gameplay done with much bigger imagination. Can't see why Gamespot users gave Generals a much bigger rating than to RA3
  13. Actually, she does wear the regular First Contact-style uniform at times, but this is the Hazard Suit. The male version is also pretty slim... Here's a spec on the suit itself:

    This window also appears if there is a mod installed with an error so big that the game won't launch

    Star Trek: Elite Force II, final level. It's pretty tough on Normal difficulty. I can only imagine what it's like on Very Hard... EF2 is one of rather rare games which beat their predecessor by far. If Activision could've done that in 2003, why can't EA do that now?
  16. Below you can see my first forum sig In the background you can see covers of some of my favourite games. Upper row: Red Alert, Star Trek: Elite Force II, No One Lives Forever (GOTY Edition), Pro Evolution Soccer 2011, Civilization II, Tiberian Sun, Curse of the Monkey Island. Lower row: Call of Duty 2, Heroes III Complete (though barely visible), Thief II: The Metal Age, Commandos: Beyond the Call of Duty, Grim Fandango, Star Trek: Armada, Half-Life (GOTY Edition). The ladies are: - Cate Archer (No One Lives Forever series) - Telsia Murphy (Star Trek: Elite Force series) - Tanya Adams (RA3 Version)
  17. YouTube made that change 2 or 3 months ago How can Generals be better than RA3????
  18. Merry Christmas and many new epic C&C mods, skirmishes and replays

    ZH Modding

    Well, there is a trick I found out about INI checking. If you are unsure will your new changes work, open Worldbuilder. If there is an error in the coding, you can see the error window while it's loading. Then, you can also browse up to My Documents\Command and Conquer Generals Zero Hour, and you will see an error log, showing which file has an error and in which string. So that makes Generals far more advanced in error hunting

    ZH Modding

    From a n00b's point of view... 1) For the models, you'll need 3D Studio Max 7 or 9 to make them and Paintshop/Photoshop to make textures for them and, if you want, GUI stuff. This pretty much speaks for itself. 2) The INI coding is more detailed than in YR, but instead of having ART.INI and RULES.INI, ZH has many separate INI files (USAUnits.INI, USABuildings.INI etc.). 3) If you know how to use Worldbuilder, making campaigns shouldn't be much of a problem. The only tricky part is that mission maps need a separate INI file (named the same as the map itself) where you can put exceptions regarding the techtree, unit strength or weapons etc. for the specific mission.
  22. Addictiveness spotted! Hope this will be released soon....
  23. Hi, Nyerguds!

    Your website is awesome, but I can't find CS and AM ISO-s anymore! Have you moved them or deleted them?

  24. Actually, I meant to say I've found a way to import AUDs into the vanilla RA95 and replace stock ones for all versions (though not necessarily at the same time). I misphrased myself BTW, is XCC AUD Writer Plugin for Winamp compatible with the expansions?
  25. By "modifying the EXE" you mean using XCC Mixer, right? EDIT: It would also be helpful if you could name which version of RA do you have. Is it only the vanilla RA95, or do you have one of the expansions? (I think I've figured out a way to import music to the vanilla RA and overwrite the existing AUD files in SCORES.MIX)
