Wraith

Maybe I spoke too soon. I am now able to connect and play games online, but whenever I try to exit, the game freezes. I have to exit it through the task manager. I tried to post on the official forums, but it appears I'm unable to. This only happens when I connect to the WOL Chat. Thanks in advance.

Awesome! It works! Thanks soo much!

You will always be able to buy a railroad for $200 in my mind.

Thanks for the quick response. With the registerWOL batch file? I did that. I even went though a fresh install, still the same problem. Do you know of any patches out there to fix this problem?

I'm really having doubts about getting 4.. Mainly the only reason I still want to is for the story, but... this feels like Zelda 2.

So I just installed the free version EA released (which is apparently the same as the First Decade version). Here's my problem: When I try to play online, it will show the 'Connecting to Westwood Online' message, then give me the good old 'Tiberian Sun has encountered an internal error' box. I used to get these seemingly randomly under my old installation on XP, with the original release. On this install, the game doesn't crash randomly, but I get that error every time I try to get online. I'm running this in win7, under XPSP2 compatibility mode. I have tried different combinations of compatibility modes and Admin access. I also read that restricting the process to one core could help. It didn't. Has anyone heard of a problem similar to this? Thanks. Here is the text of the except.txt file (I omitted the stack dump) Error code: EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION Description: The thread tried to read from or write to a virtual address for which it does not have the appropriate access.
