Tiberium Wars 1.09 Patch and Kane's Wrath

[Johnnyxp64 20]

Does any of you recall for sure if Kane's Wrath included all 1.09patch tiberium wars changes, or was just again an older core the outsource took and build on that?

 

cause i am thinking reinstalling tw3 and kw

KW is not standalone (unless it's a nastily pirated release), so I think it relies on TW regarding patches. I'm not sure, though.

Please do not spread mistruths.

 

A legit copy of KW can be installed and played as a standalone with the help of Notepad and Explorer. I know this because I have C&C3 and KW and limited hard drive space, so I can only install one game at a time.

 

'*********************************

This is what I did to play KW w/o reinstalling Tib Wars. I was using Win XP. I did not need to download anything.

 

Files were installed to C:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\Command & Conquer 3

**If you are installing to a different directory or different drive, then adjust according.

 

What you need:

Notepad

Windows Explorer (or ms-dos)

the knowledge to use the above 2 programs

 

1) Create a file named 'CNC3.reg'

In Notepad, copy the lines between the ***

 

***

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

 

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Electronic Arts\Electronic Arts\Command and Conquer 3]

"InstallPath"="C:\\Program Files\\Electronic Arts\\Command & Conquer 3\\"

***

 

Save file. Double click on CNC3.reg and import into your registry.

 

2) Create the following directories and files:

\Command & Conquer 3\cnc3.exe

\Command & Conquer 3\Core\1.0\Shaders.big

\Command & Conquer 3\RetailExe\1.0\cnc3game.dat

 

(For example, open Notepad, hit Ctrl-S, then name file cnc3game.dat. All 3 files should be empty)

 

So the .dat file would go in C:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\Command & Conquer 3\RetailExe\1.0\

 

3) Install KW. Play KW.

Hey, take it easy, it's not my fault I can't tamper with registry files or copy certain assets to make expansions work without the original.

Someone copy this material to an independent thread and sticky it.
