[Sonic 295]

Aro from Project Perfect Mod has released his Unofficial Mini-Patch (UMP) for Tiberian Sun. It fixes all known (fixable) bugs in Tiberian Sun and merges the Firestorm INI files with Tiberian Sun's so you no longer get any saved game errors. Here's a summary of what this patch corrects.

It's always nice to see people working on improving Tiberian Sun even if it's only bug fixes.

"Removed TargetLaser=yes from Titan"

 

Finally! Will this patch be a part of TFD unofficial patch sometimes?

Well, this is a non sister project to TS 2.04, what LKO and myself are working, this version by Aro is more of a in between for modders or players to use. TS 2.04 is aimed to be a official XWIS update.

"Removed TargetLaser=yes from Titan"

 

Finally!

What's wrong with the Titan having a target laser?

Lots of mainly animation bugs... it's been so long since I played this baby... didn't remember so many problems.

 

Not enough for me to reinstall though...

What about the general strategic flaw that enabled the GDI player to start with Juggernauts, but the Nod player had no Artillery???

[Aro 3]

When I first released the UMP I added many of my own custom game-play additions which included only allowing Light Infantry, Tick Tanks and Titans as starting units, but since the starting units that are set in Tiberian Sun and Firestorm are intentional settings by Westwood and not bugs, I decided to remove those additions.

 

Thanks for posting this here by the way.
