Messing about with C&C:TFD

Recommended Posts

Hello peeps

 

Yes, I am still alive :) but I just thought I'd share this -

 

I bought The First Decade yesterday and installed everything bar Renegade, which compared to my current FPS doesn't even come close.. but anyway...

 

After fixing the TD Covert Ops problems and the Soviet movies for Red Alert I thought I'd have a play around with the Launcher as it seemed daft to have a blank entry in it.

 

So I delve into the Registry and then, with a bit of messing with Photoshop, I came up with this -

Now then... here's an interesting point for you (which may have been raised before) -

 

The Launcher has bmp files to display the names etc but the confusing thing is the numbering of them.

 

TD is "b01_hover.bmp"

RA is "b02_hover.bmp"

 

and then...

 

TS is "b04_hover.bmp"

 

...so what happened to "b03_hover.bmp" ???

 

Did they change their minds about something?

 

Cheers for now

That kind of thing happens all the time.

 

Hmm... but it'd be nice to know WHY they made the error... perhaps there was something else slated for release with the pack...who knows?

Perhaps...

 

Because as we all know Sole Surivivor is the worst game ever created and should never be mentioned ever again, save the end of teh world... ;)

Luk3us.. you just have no taste ;) Sole Survivor rocked!! Mind you, they buggered up the MP on CnC and RA so I suppose a MP only game had no chance on TFD...

It's rarely an error but an oversight or a prerelease test concept. RA2 has tons of material that goes unused, as does Tiberian Sun.
