Keep us up to date with the crashes, getting close to 1week now without crashes, yay Sound problems are fixed, was just a bug in the updater

Did you download + double click TSpatch to install it or did you only place it in the game folder? Apply the patch again. If origin tells you there is an update available for the game, DO NOT install that update (It will revert all changes from TSpatch)

There are already multiple ipx->udp wrappers that the community has been using for years One was made by understorm and the other one was actually the cncnet4 dll. I highly suggest to use cncnet for LAN games rather than using these wrappers, they're pretty outdated and not needed anymore Anyways, thanks for sharing your solution!

Oh noes, will update it today thanks

You need a 32bit wine prefix, could be that you have everything needed to create such a prefix. At least in ubuntu you can create a 32bit prefix with the 64bit wine out of the box I guess you'll have to google how to do that on fedora (Or just get Ubuntu, it's pretty cool)

That's strange since I tested it all on Ubuntu 16.04. I used the 64bit version, you got the 32bit one? Is there anything you were doing different than me? Here is the video I recorded installing it https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B5by5H1Q2PxEU1NmZENBaEU4VlU/view?usp=sharing Edit: Oh I see, you actually tried to install it manually via the terminal? I don't know how to solve that dpkg error, but you can just install the dependency manually and afterwards install the package. sudo apt-get install wine:i386 sudo dpkg -i cncnet_1.0_all.deb

Haha, bingo, it's working now ... Ok, should I also bother with the versions 5-8 or what it was there, or keep on playing version 2 to see if it crashes? Nice! No, I think we will just stick to test2 for now. I will try to fix crashes in the games rather than messing around more with the wrapper

cool lol

It should work now

You were banned cause you apparently tried to cheat, I don't have the log here right now so I can't tell details. But the 30days are over already so I'm gonna remove the ban Make sure you don't use any cheats and/or any kind of automated gameplay

What nickname did you use? Was it C|Grounch? If not, what does the ban message say, screenshot might help too

Haha, I will ... For version 2 I have only played one game so far, but it worked flawlessly. In-game sounds are there as well, just chat lobby sounds are still missing for some reason... Cool, let me know if there are still problems. About the game sounds, try to type this: /reset Someone noticed earlier that maps were missing cause the updater didn't download them, I checked it and the sounds were missing too...

All maps will be downloaded on first start in online mode, make sure you get the update first and afterwards all maps should be available in online and skirmish afterwards. All 200+ official westwood maps are included (standard + counterstrike + aftermath) Edit: Ok, i'm sorry! I found the problem... You need to force the update, type this command in the game lobby where you chat: /reset

Are you talking about the windows key to minimize the game? (or alt+tab) This doesn't work by default on windows 10, you can either enable window mode in the settings or try out the DxWnd renderer

You got windows 10? Try Game DVR, it was working so far with everything I tried. To raise the bitrate get this https://github.com/FunkyFr3sh/GameDVR_Config/releases

It will come as an update automatically, you don't need to re download it again. Would be nice to hear from claus about the sounds since I don't even have sounds in the virtual machine that I use to test, so I can't really tell if it works for me lol Instead of removing the explosion crate I decided to replace it with the ion blast crate cause it was unclear if this crash only happens with one certain crate type, I will revert the change later. The result of the ion blast crate is the same as the explosion crate, you will lose your unit (so it actually shouldn't change the gameplay, just looking a bit different). Let me know if you are still getting crashes now, try your special humvee horse moves

I could reproduce the crash, just pushed an update to fix it. Can you try again? About the sounds, that should not happen. No idea what it could be This new wrappers will only show the rooms of the games you have installed, if you only have td installed then it's normal to see 2-3 games only cause the game doesn't have many players

Red Alert All important game files are now cached on gamestart and the game will not read data from your hdd during game play anymore A bug was fixed that caused the game to slow down if no music is installed A experimental debug patch was added to solve a game crash on Macs Tiberian Dawn A experimental debug patch was added to solve a game crash on Macs The explosion crate has been replaced with the ion blast crate to test if the popular crate crash still occurs using another crate type CnCNet The client will now default to 4 player games for tiberian dawn since 5 and 6 player games are still broken (out of sync problems) A workaround was added for players in the UK, specially those having virgin media internet provider (could also affect other providers). P2P games failed to connect often cause internet providers in the UK put their customers behind proxy servers (Web Safe / Child Safe / Virus Safe).

ok that's cool, thanks

You have the friendlist enabled but it's empty, click on the heart icon top right

Cool, thanks for the feedback! Did you try tiberian sun now? I really hope it works, else the testing will go on... And I don't wanna have multiple downloads for the games, would be awesome to have it all in 1 BTW, type "/reset" and the bug with the names should be gone

Alright cool, you use the name Smudge in the game lobby? Or just pm me the id/pass if you like

The mac download for cncnet is a wrapper because the game actually runs on windows only. We are using a tool called wineskin to wrap it up and end up with a .app file that mac users can start with just a click OpenGL is a different method used for drawing everything on your screen, I already changed the installers to have it enabled by default so you don't need to change anything if you download the file again. Would be awesome if you could try test2 again with cnc1, and maybe with tiberian sun too if you are playing that as well. BTW, I don't think anyone is going to fix that crate crash and we don't have that many players here using crates in online games, do you think it would be ok to just remove the explosion crate from the game? (It would be easy to do that, could do it on the next update)

specialK was probably using the other wrapper (not porting kit) so everything looks normal for him since it should have the same slow scrolling as the other wrapper. So you still prefer test2 I guess? Did you actually had the same problems on the porting kit version with white screen sometimes? And the other bug " there is ingame a mouse-cursor-shadow, or a white selecting-unit-box frozen" did that also happen with the porting kit version? Really interested to know how well the porting kit version worked oh, you can ignore that. It will fix itself when we are done with these test versions!

TCP&UDP should work fine too, don't think it's the problem. I just had an idea, do you maybe have multiple connections at the same time? like, are you connected via cable and wifi too? that could indeed cause such problems. Maybe we could give it a try via teamviewer if nothing else helps
