Tiberian Dawn Help

[LivesParkk]

I am running the Origin version of Tiberian Dawn. Surprisingly, the game runs fine on it's own. I would, however, like to use Nyergud's patch as it has some things in it I would like to use. When trying to run the game after installing the patch (and changing no settings in ccconfig) the game crashes upon startup, saying that the instruction X referenced memory at X and the memory could not be read from. Anyone have any tips?

Windows 10 I assume?

1) Get the updated config tools and extract them into your game folder (overwrite existing) http://downloads.cncnet.org/addons/td-config.7z

2) Rename C&C95.exe to C&C95_123.exe and create a new shortcut on your desktop

 

Nyers installer was not updated for windows 10 yet, we are still waiting for him to finish it up

Perfect! Any Suggestions on my resolution issues with Tiberian Sun? I have another forum post going about that.

Im not sure why, but the very top and bottom of the screen are cut off in tibsun making it so that I can't see my money in game. I don't know how to fix it, I tried messing around with different resolutions, not sure what i'm missing.

That could be a high DPI issue.

Try this: right click on game.exe (in the folder you installed TS) click on "Properties" then on the "Compatibility" tab and check "Disable DPI scaling" (If you got latest Win10: check it and set it to "Application")

Alternatively you can you can disable this scaling for your entire system (and probably make the text tiny in all your applications) by right clicking on the desktop clicking on "display settings" scrolling down to "Scale and layout" and set "Change the size of text, apps and other items" to 100%.

Can you suggest what settings to use within the tsconfig? I played around with my scaling options for the game itself on my graphics card (Center, full panel, etc) and through a combination of that and resolutions in tsconfig, I managed to get the entire game to display and I could see my money, but the game was crammed in the very corner. 

The Screen itself is 1920x1080 and I'm trying to run the game cuts off the very top and bottom regardless of whether i try to run it at that ddefinition or not. I have 150% windows scaling, and 6% hdmi scaling through my graphics card (The graphics card scaling affects the physical size of what is actually displayed on my monitor, while windows scaling is the actual size of objects). Any suggestions on what i'm doing wrong because I feel like I'm so close to getting this fixed, but I tried all 3 high dpi settings on the compatibility tab and no luck.

Try setting your Windows scaling to 100% or disable scaling for only TS. Both are described in my post above.

Usually when you have issues with high dpi settings then it's cut of on the right and on the bottom, never heard about top and bottom... no idea how that's possible

I understand that and I tried it but no luck.
