    Resolution issue

    in Tiberian Sun

    Posted · Edited by amokk

    "Unnecessary complication is the norm of the masses: simplicity is the hallmark of the discerning."  A.J. Darkholme

     

    For more than 30 years people have paid me to crutch their old software, When newer software costing a fraction of the price paid to me, was readily available to them. and very very rarely, was the crutched software less frustrating than the new.

    Why screw around crutching the old one????

    Try the cncnet downloads instead, same game, but a current modern client. Their clients handle the newer, higher resolutions very well

    I expect you might have better luck with them.....

    They are also free.

     

    If you are really bent on using the old one, you can edit the resolution in the sun.ini file (using a text editor) if I remember correctly..... and it still might be glitchy anyway..

    I also have played a long time.

    I am retired, havent worked in a long, long time.  

    I want to learn CAD a little better,  do some more 3-d modeling projects for my 3d printer.

    Spend a little time drinking coffee and looking out my window, or walking around the city..

    So many over the years that do not come around anymore.  Met some great people here over the years.

    As long as everyone is willing to play any map, there should be no issues with competing.

    as long as this is the group involved, there will be issues...lol, enjoy!

    my two cents on the maps is a large map pool, and include unfamilar maps to reduce the advantage of experience with the map.

     

    I anxiously await seeing who is the best regardless of map or opponent,

    not best against so and so on this map, not that one, on a sunday in the fall during a hurricane, while chewing gum.......TRZ.....

    Nobody ever gives the key to quit the game! What is it?!

    esc     

    that opens the options menu like you clicked on options top left.

    gets you half way there.

     

    someone once told me the key to quitting the game was to get a life............

    while in a game or skirmish

    go to options top left 

     choose game settings the top button, 

     the second slider (the middle one)  is  Scroll rate

    that one will adjust it for you.

    Welcome back, Commander!!

    Here is the edit 

    place it at the beginning..

    you can use a text editor like notepad.  save as        .mpr   file

     

    default cncnet maps folder (can be any of the folders here)

    C:\Games\CnCNet\TiberianSun_Online\Maps\  (pick a folder here)

    then restart the client.  >>>play!

     

    [General]
    MaximumQueuedObjects=9

     

    I use 9, you can use any number you like I think.

    Here is a link to the 5000 map    Tiberian Sun map pack

    The cncnet installer also uses Tore's client though lol, at least the full game Linux one lol

    I ended up using Rampastring's client, although I still prefer Tore's for various reasons

    Why??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

     

    Does the cncnet linux installer fail?

    If you tried the cncnet linux installer, and it did not work. post in the 'support' section.

     

    Someone else just posted here. 'i want to play TS but I want to install it with some old installer for win98 that I am having problems with...'

    Come on people.!! , use the cncnet one, and if that dosen't work, then ask for help................. lol

    In your case it uses the client you like, and it is supported, if you tried the cncnet one, and it did not work, ask for help in the support section, where the smart people will help you.  

    In here you're stuck with me
