Tiberian Sun TFD Patched Not Running

[ROB]

I just installed the complete TFD package, installed the unofficial 3.03 patch thinking: "what could possibly go wrong?". But sure enough it wont launch. Screen goes black and acts like it wants to but nothing happens, that was before I tinkered with compatibility settings, now absolutely nothing happens when I click. Any suggestions? I use Win 7.

The 3.03 patch? That's a Red Alert patch not a Tiberian Sun patch. :/

Not that one. W/e that tfd unnofical patch is called. 1.03? I got it from this site.

Hmm. I think the only thing it does to TS is a nocd crack though, and a fix to the mixfiles to make the movies still work on the cracked exe.

 

If the 1.03 patch doesn't do it right, I suggest uninstalling TFD, deleting the remains, reinstalling, and then patching it manually:

The nocd patch from the 1.03 patch isn't mentioned in that, but can be found here:

A collection of nocd cracks for all the TFD games can be found here:

Well I tried all that and same result. Installed and ran as admin. !st time I went to play it seemed like the game launched but the picture never came up, just a black screen. I could tab out and see that Sun.exe was running, i just couldent see it. No sound either. Think its affinity CPU? I have a quad core.

I got it working. Turns out when I run the game and the screen goes black I have to push escape, then it lets me select regular or firestorm. But the sounds seems to have trouble loading and the movies don't seem to wanna play when I try to do single player, just freezes. And In skirmish I cannot see how many credits I have, looks like some of the top and bottom is chopped off, any suggestions?
