The latest versions of Command & Conquer: The Ultimate Collection were published with new executables, which naturally caused incompatibility with several community tools, among them the irreplaceable GenPatcher and GenTool. However, their developers were quick enough to develop tweaked builds so everyone is on the same page. GenPatcher, the one-stop patching tool for fresh Generals and Zero Hour installations, received three versions by now - 2.07 beta, 2.07b and 2.07c. In addition to the new TUC releases being supported, the tool is no longer falsely detected by Malwarebytes, registry and serial key issues are adapted for the Steam version, and includes Windows Media Feature Pack among its redistributables that are installed if not found on the system. As for GenTool, the quality-of-life improvement tool for Generals and Zero Hour, version 8.7 brings the following changes: New Features Added compatibility with Generals and Zero Hour The Ultimate Collection (Steam, EA App) Added warning message popup for non-x87 compatible generals executables Fixed game version mismatches for various compatible executables Fixed missing hashing of scb files for game version hash generations Fixed C&C Online login kick by generating random ergc game keys when so required Added -showFrameCount command line argument to draw frame counts Fixes/Improvements Fixed severe performance degradation with Steam Overlay (GameOverlayRenderer.dll) Fixed crash on application boot with Windows XP 32 Fixed dysfunctional GenTool Updater in Windows XP Fixed theoretically unsafe code with Windows XP Fixed minor inaccuracy of FPS counter and FPS limiter Fixed incorrect terrain draw distance after changing camera height Changed Upload Player ID generation by adding another salt Improved game version names for uploaded txt files Removed forceful disabling of Origin In Game (IGO32.dll) Updater: Improved patch file formats and capabilities Updater: Improved the maps patcher for future map releases Updater: Removed the replacement of the Zero Hour no-CD game.dat Updater: Removed the replacement of the Generals Origin generals.exe EDIT (30 March 2024): GenTool was bumped to version 8.8 to fix a slowdown issue on Windows 11 related to the framerate limiter. To keep your installation of Generals and Zero Hour as up-to-date and stable as possible, download GenPatcher, then GenTool (as the former currently includes the previous version of the latter).

Updated: 23-01-2012 Recently (12 August 2009) I installed from TFD, Generals Zero hour for some old good fights after i saw in you tube the Generals Trailer 1 at E3 that made me wanna revisit that game. Now i am running Windows 7 x64 and after installation the program didn't run. so here is what you should do to make it run Make sure you have the latest Direct-X 9.0c installed, you can Google it or get it from Microsoft make sure you have windows 7 service pack 1 at least installed! make sure you have the LATEST Graphic Drivers installed for your VGA Card and that meets the game's requirements! make sure that both Generals and Zero hour its on its latest patch version! TFD should be updated! (must be a clean installation no other MODS etc!) into your "user" directory (named with your user account yeah you know there where you see the folder my pictures, my music etc) in there go to "My Documents" well there after trying to run the game you would see a Command and Conquer Generals Zero Hour Data folder. open it. right click and create a new empty .TXT file and rename it options.ini (make sure you see the extension .txt and you don't end up having a stupid file named options.ini.txt!) if you dont know how to see the files extension in windows 7, Google it or get an Xbox to play now copy the following lines inside and Save it! **warning in the resolution section put your resolution********* ***also some LOD settings may not work with your VGA card! remove those lines if you cant run the game!**** AntiAliasing = 1 BuildingOcclusion = yes CampaignDifficulty = 0 DynamicLOD = yes ExtraAnimations = yes GameSpyIPAddress = 0.0.0.0 Gamma = 50 HeatEffects = yes IPAddress = 0.0.0.0 IdealStaticGameLOD = Low LanguageFilter = false MaxParticleCount = 5000 MusicVolume = 55 Resolution = 1366 768 Retaliation = yes SFX3DVolume = 79 SFXVolume = 71 ScrollFactor = 60 SendDelay = no ShowSoftWaterEdge = yes ShowTrees = yes StaticGameLOD = Custom TextureReduction = 0 UseAlternateMouse = yes UseCloudMap = yes UseDoubleClickAttackMove = no UseLightMap = yes UseShadowDecals = yes UseShadowVolumes = yes VoiceVolume = 70 then Right Click on your Generals / Zero Hour shortcut (if you don't have make one), in Widows 7 most games make there shortcuts into the "GAMES" menu in Start Menu and in the Compatibility Tab just select Windows XP SP3 and click "Run as administrator" option too (if you are not an admin) that's it go inside change your settings and restart the game. other alternative simpler solution: windows 7 x64 SP1 (service pack1 is crucial!) clean install of the game and patch to latest versions! change compatibility of the main .exe to Windows XP sp3 (so that the main menu shellmap works ok) run the game for 1st time and during this run go to setting and change everything you want! (besides resolution) then exit game and locate the options.ini i told you before in your Documents\Generals Zero Hour data\ folder change there only the resolution line to your screen's native. (ex Resolution = 1366 768) save and rerun the game. you are done! Have fun that's an order!

After a successful first version, GenPatcher 2.0 has finally arrived. As before, this tool streamlines the installation, patching and configuring process for C&C Generals and Zero Hour on modern systems, implementing multiple fixes at once and tackling pretty much all known causes for problems in setting the game up. This new version, which had been in beta since November 2021 and downloaded by 3000 users, introduces new fixes and also incorporates optional downloads such as GenTool, ExiLe's Control Bar Pro, GenLauncher for mods, Leikeze's hotkey preset, Adriane's modified Worldbuilder, and over 100 maps. Whether you're playing alone, casually with friends or competitively, this tool is an absolute must have. It comes in online downloader and full offline bundle versions, so you can even plan offline LAN parties like in the good old days. Full information and downloads are available on the author's website, Legi.cc.

ZH Scripting Issues: Reveal Map at Waypoint and Swapping Infantry Units
PK_Soar posted a topic in Generals / Zero Hour Maps & Modding
I've recently picked up work on an old project of mine, a game mode for Zero Hour modeled after Battlefield's conquest, in which you drain your enemies 'tickets' by capturing objectives. Scripting the majority of the mode is done, it works basically as intended. Among other things, some more work needs to be done to balance the Toxin and Infantry faction, by replacing their specialized Toxin Rebel and Minigunner units with their vanilla counterparts (at least for the early game), and also by revealing a small circle around the objectives in the fog of war. For the unit switch: 'Chem_GLAInfantryRebel' becomes Buildable (No) Command button: 'Command_ConstructGLAInfantryRebel' is added to all objects of type 'Chem_GLABarracks' in slot number 1 (1-12). And... 'Infa_ChinaInfantryMiniGunner' becomes Buildable (No) Command button: 'Command_ConstructChinaInfantryRedguard' is added to all objects of type 'Infa_ChinaBarracks' in slot number 1 (1-12). The first part of each script works, as the button for those units are not present, but the more important second part doesn't seem to be doing the job. As for the map reveal: [???]The map is revealed at Waypoint 'Ob1' with a radius of 100.00 feet for Player 'player_0'. [???]The map is revealed at Waypoint 'Ob2' with a radius of 100.00 feet for Player 'player_0'. [???]The map is revealed at Waypoint 'Ob3' with a radius of 100.00 feet for Player 'player_0'. [???]The map is revealed at Waypoint 'Ob4' with a radius of 100.00 feet for Player 'player_0'. [???]The map is revealed at Waypoint 'Ob5' with a radius of 100.00 feet for Player 'player_0'. [???]The map is revealed at Waypoint 'Ob6' with a radius of 100.00 feet for Player 'player_0'. [???]The map is revealed at Waypoint 'Ob1' with a radius of 100.00 feet for Player 'player_1'. [???]The map is revealed at Waypoint 'Ob2' with a radius of 100.00 feet for Player 'player_1'. [???]The map is revealed at Waypoint 'Ob3' with a radius of 100.00 feet for Player 'player_1'.

[???]The map is revealed at Waypoint 'Ob6' with a radius of 100.00 feet for Player 'player_1'. The map is revealed at Waypoint 'Ob1' with a radius of 100.00 feet for Player '<Local Player>'. The map is revealed at Waypoint 'Ob2' with a radius of 100.00 feet for Player '<Local Player>'. The map is revealed at Waypoint 'Ob3' with a radius of 100.00 feet for Player '<Local Player>'.

Get to modify where static text stays
UnholyLiberator posted a topic in Generals / Zero Hour Maps & Modding
Is that a SAGE thing anymore dude? It's something I consider for interface redesign, still planning it out that I have desire return to Generals. Playing around with the Windows.big mostly. Did I try using Cords parameter at no effect. So weird, was it 2007 I had menu modded, like, completely with different background set then got bored by the game lol what a project wreck. Given I choose to stick that Exit button somewhere else on the screen, am I doing it wrong? TEXT = "GUI:Exit"; COORDS = "LEFT: VALUEGOESHERE"; Generals that I play again, Zero Hour is cool too but stick for a while until I am finished with the campaign. Missed my game XD -

On Friday, W3D Hub posted a pretty intense update on what they've been doing behind the scenes lately. Apart from a new intro that goes with their logo inspired by Westwood's 1998-2003 orb logo and a run-down of what they've accomplished from their 2018 roadmap, they've announced that the W3D Hub launcher now supports the regular C&C Renegade with the option of installing the latest version of Scripts, an announcement for the W3D Kit that will accomodate many needs of Renegade modders, a new wiki for W3D engine development called the Tacitus, and last but definitely the most, the first public release of W3D tools for 3D Studio Max 2017 that is meant to support model formats from C&C Renegade, C&C Generals/Zero Hour and the Battle for Middle-earth titles. More details can be found in their official post.

Where's this located for Generals?
UnholyLiberator posted a topic in Generals / Zero Hour Maps & Modding
Howdy y'all. I am having hard times getting the hang out of how missions are structured to work within the game environment, having a rather slow on and off schedule to practice things, I wonder where is this caption window that shows up during Tutorial, guiding you through the game. Like I wanna know how that part works, in another word I can't seem to find which WIndow file the game uses to display that little box. Now I've sift through what I could, most of the .wnd assets if not all, getting to think it's somewhere else. I know that part in modding already I'd be dumb enough to miss something. FYI, one WND is that I instantly thought of it may be the culprit, being InGamePopupMessage.wnd. And if changed, it just does not do anything besides skewing the OK button, the rest of the window remains unchanged even if you modify anything else. Like I said, I had checked a total of 78 wnd's, talking Generals and I am out of damn ideas. -

Command and Conquer Generals / ZH don't work full screen win 10
TiberiumSpider posted a topic in Generals / Zero Hour
Hello, I have this strange problem where I can run CnC generals/ Zero Hour in Windowed mode but when I run in full screen mode it automatically minimizes. I am operating on win 10 using the AMd r9 270x. I am playing on the tfd 1.03 rev4 patched versions of CnC generals and zero hour. Is there any way you guys could assist me? I had the same problem with CnC3 but I fixed it when I launched in Windowed mode. -

The video is now 10 minutes longer in total, so be sure to check it out!- 3 replies

Command & Conquer The Rise and Fall of Command & Conquer
Sonic posted a topic in Command & Conquer News
Back in February, GVMERS posted a video that looked at what happened to the cancelled Tiberium FPS. Today, they have new Command & Conquer video that dives into the entire franchise. The Command & Conquer franchise helped shape the identity of RTS games during the 1990's and would influence the designs of countless similar strategy titles in later years. Even though the franchise ended with a whimper instead of a bang, it managed to create an indelible impact on the history of videogames. Join the team from GVMERS as they take a look at the rise and fall of Command & Conquer.- 7 replies

Cinematic Error > Terrain/World becomes black
Zuzzlan posted a topic in Generals / Zero Hour Maps & Modding
After having polished the intro a bit (and the rest of the map since the last post) I encountered this error when using certain camera angles. There will be a disgusting spread of darkness on half the screen just like in the pictures provided, with the next angle being completely fine not having any of that junk. Anyone know a workaround for this? It really sucks to have it in the middle of my intro cinematic. Also off-topic question, there occurs a mismatch shortly after the nuclear missile silo is destroyed. When it is destroyed, the particle cannon becomes active for the US. I'm not sure if the guy playing US used it which caused a mismatch, but if anyone script-nerdy could check those things out then I'd appreciate it. Also you will see a folder under DRONE which is disabled, it seems like it somehow causes mismatches sometimes since after disabling that folder there doesn't appear to be as many mismatches as before. Thanks beforehand. glitchy black effect. <-- The only part of the intro where it occurs. next shot, completely fine. Map attached below. Operation Radioactive Snow.rar -
Hello hello, if anyone is still remaining in this dying community. I've decided to return and change some things with my old 2v2 scripted map, by not only adding a few new things but also implementing AI. The first difficulty I've encountered is that despite having assigned AIs some prebuilt buildings, the buildings always appear to be given to Neutral instead. This issue does not appear with players, however, for when there are 4 players they all start with their assigned buildings. This is the same for units, they are all neutral as well. The second difficulty I encountered was when adding a new structure, a TechReinforcementPad that gives the science "Sneak attack" to the owner. However if you capture this structure as USA or China then you will not be able to use this unless you have a GLA command center, is there a workaround for this? There's also the AnthraxFacility the GLA gets to use in their base that should give both GLA players the Anthrax bomb science, but since you always start as China I can't really test if this is working or not. I'm also open if anyone has any critique to the map in case of balancing issues, textures, scripts etc. Thanks for the help! Map attached below. Operation Radioactive Snow dev test3.rar
