sgtmyers88 Posted July 31, 2016 Share Posted July 31, 2016 First off I don't use EA Origin so I have no clue how they formatted the system but I was hearing that the only way to get mods to work in Generals, Zero Hour, and Tiberium Wars is that you will have to extract and decompile all of the individual game data folders from the custom mod files (.big .gib .tdr etc.) with FinalBIG and then copy them into the root game directory. Is this correct or is there another way around it? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nyerguds Posted July 31, 2016 Share Posted July 31, 2016 I honestly have no idea; I don't mod these games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tore Posted July 31, 2016 Share Posted July 31, 2016 Mods work as normal on the Origin versions. For C&C3 you need to find a copy of the mod launcher from somewhere though or use the fixed launchers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nyerguds Posted July 31, 2016 Share Posted July 31, 2016 For C&C3 you just need to start the -ui interface or start the mod from command line directly. It actually has built-in support for mods, unlike Generals. It might need the fixed launchers though, yes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sgtmyers88 Posted July 7, 2017 Author Share Posted July 7, 2017 Update: Latest fix for Origin C&C games can be found here. http://www.moddb.com/mods/command-conquer/downloads/command-conquer-ultimate-collection-launchers 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nyerguds Posted July 7, 2017 Share Posted July 7, 2017 Are you sure that works? Bibber's own site has its download replaced by a message saying he's still working on it after the latest Origin update broke them. http://bibber.eu/downloads/cnc-ultimate-collection-launchers/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sgtmyers88 Posted July 10, 2017 Author Share Posted July 10, 2017 (edited) Yeah EA needs to cut their crap with this. The latest update has indeed broke these as well. I am just glad I still have my retail disk copies safely stored away with a digital backup made for TFD.

AFWIK the guy who was applying these "fixes" for using mods on Origin has stopped. Why do you actually need those launchers? I never understood it, can you explain what's needed to start the mod? I was reading that these launchers let command line parameters pass through, so I guess you need to pass some parameters to the game to launch the mods? Origin lets you specify command line parameters too, so I really have no idea what's the deal with these launchers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

airstrik0 Posted June 3, 2018 Share Posted June 3, 2018 (edited) in any case the cnc collections launchers now have an update to make the game work if people are still having a problem should be 1.19 and not 1.16 now. I would post a link I think an someone is taking links that are posted and going back to ea to make an update to make the mods unable to work.. which really wouldn't surprise me sense the company has an enormous ego. and yes i know the 1.19 in the links so far provided dont work. i just realized with mod installed i can now play the game without turning origin on at all.

The worst one i've heard of was someone saying that all the presidents are related and that the us government was a monarchy man was that guy insistent. And he kept saying that's what they want us to think and that the monarchy is just a secondary cover for something much larger. And you really shouldn't go around insulting other peoples opinions. At least not directly to them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wild ideas with no grounds, yet your only defense is "stop insulting". It wasn't even an ad hominem. How about you first: a) educate yourself on how those launchers actually work and how the latest versions were barely made b) stop talking about things you don't even begin to understand in general c) drop the circlejerk that EA is deliberately trying to break a game that nobody knows if they even have the source code for.

I rather let you believe what you want then deal with your troll style BS. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
