It should work out of the box with the default settings after you applied TSpatch Ah yes I should have mentioned - with the default settings I have the menu issue where the new campaign/options screens etc do not appear when clicked on. DxWnd is the only option where this is not an issue. I have disabled Origin In-Game Overlay and cloud saves and have game.exe set to run as administrator.

Try to apply TSpatch again, I guess something might have gone wrong. It should work fine with default settings. Sometimes origin reverts the patches or parts of them, so make sure you don't update the game when origin claims there is an update available (there is none!)

I played it safe and reinstalled the game before shutting down Origin and applying TSpatch. Same issues as before: default has menu issues, ts-ddraw crashes on startup, ie-ddraw has menu issues, ddwrapper has menu issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FunkyFr3sh Posted March 8, 2018 Author Share Posted March 8, 2018 Well, that's odd... I don't know what is causing the issue on your end, so I don't have a solution for it. But you could try DDrawCompat that is currently not listed, to enable it you'll have to join the online lobby and type the following command: /install ddcompat Make sure you don't open the config program afterwards, it would overwrite the changes Another alternative is "DxWnd+Windowed Mode", the random crash that happens for some players didn't happen anymore once window mode was enabled. I don't have this crash, so I could never test it sadly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AYZON Posted May 15, 2018 Share Posted May 15, 2018 I have a question about the patch, I've read a while ago something about it being a bug that friendly units follow enemy units when getting attacked. I can't remember that being a thing before the patch, though I must admit its been a while and I might be wrong. Anyways, my question is, is it correct that this happens in my patched game?

Retro Caveman Posted May 16, 2018 Share Posted May 16, 2018 Really nice patch. I wasn't having any major problems, but game really seems to be running better now. Couldn't find an answer to this. But is there a way to use random maps in the skirmish mode? I noticed there's a list of maps, but none of the saved random maps show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think @dkeeton added a patch related to that, but it's only for multi player. Single player doesn't have such a change. But he probably knows what this is about, I'll ask him to post here 5 minutes ago, Retro Caveman said: Really nice patch.

I noticed there's a list of maps, but none of the saved random maps show. @dkeeton was working on a patch lfor random map, but I'm not sure how it works. I think you need a special map that you load and it will then just put you on a random map, I'll ask him about it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The patch that fixes guard mode isn't included in the ts-patch. Even with guard mode fix, units still chase for a long time before retreating.

You have to do it with a text editor. Open the map file in notepad or something similar and edit the values how you like. Put the map in /Maps/Custom/ then restart the cncnet client. Here are some examples. http://mapdb.cncnet.org/ts/4251b164242784de7a0bf1ee1a8b8d59db131095.zip http://mapdb.cncnet.org/ts/195bc7663d93bdbc49d7cc5c20dbaed72c582db1.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retro Caveman Posted May 17, 2018 Share Posted May 17, 2018 I notice that files with the .SED extension pertain to random maps. Is there a way to just copy these over into the custom folder and rename them as .MAP files that the cncnet launcher can use? Basically, I'd just like to use my random maps that were saved... (because playing skirmish thru the cncet launcher is way cool). ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shooter Mcgavin Posted May 19, 2018 Share Posted May 19, 2018 Hi, I downloaded this patch to fix the scrollrate issue, however after installing I cannot enter the game. I make it to the main menu, but when I try to load a game or start a new campaign the game hangs on the loading screen. I have the origin version of TS, with this forum post's attached patch, running windows 10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have the origin version of TS, with this forum post's attached patch, running windows 10. A similar problem has been reported before, It only seems to happen on windows 10. Does it hang on "Creating theories on likely enemy plan.." ? There is no known solution for it yet But I'm curious, you say you downloaded the patch for the scrollrate issues, so that means you could actually play the game before using the patch? Normally tiberian sun doesn't work at all on windows 10, did you maybe apply another patch before using TSpatch? Maybe that's somehow related to the bug Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you buy it from Origin? You can enable the No CD patch manually in case you have a custom installation. Click on "Settings" in the game launcher and then on "Advanced Setting" then tick the "No CD" checkbox. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
