Trying to reinstall Gruntmods Dune 2000 on Windows 10, which I think I deleted instead of properly uninstalling it, but I can't make the executable install it because it thinks I still have the game installed. If I go to uninstall it through System settings then it says it's installed, but because it can't find the uninstaller it won't try to uninstall it. Is there any way around this?

Hello admins, My Problem is Centered Around Networking...
I have one computer that is "split" into two separate computers by using Softxpand, a multiseat gaming software:
Softxpand link:
http://miniframe.com
Youtube "demonstration" video:
https://youtu.be/Z1OFJtXSWHU
I am trying to play by LAN server.
Using station #1, CnCnet starts the lan server using the internal ip address 127.0.0.1 and hosts a game...
On station #2 CnCnet starts up the LAN lobby but doesn't startup the lanserver program because it is already running elsewhere on the computer (station #1).
Station #2 can see and join station #1's game in the lobbie, but gets kicked due to connection error...
Somehow cncnet must be able to host and join on a multiseat computer setup...Perhaps:
.Fix cncnet and using ip address 127.0.0.1
.edit the values in the cncnetlanserver.exe config file
.make an update for cncnet in make it compatible with multiseat software
Thank you Sirs,

So I was playing with a couple other friends on Dune 2000 multiplayer last night with 3 of us total and we were having no lag issues peer-to-peer. Once I tried to have 4 of us total we started to lag bad making it impossible to play. We even tried to have different people host and it still lagged terribly. We all have very fast internet as well. Is there a limit to how many people I can play with on dune 2000 multiplayer before it lags? Or is there a fix so we have 4 or more players in one game without lag? Your help would be very much appreciated. Thanks!

Dune 2000
Original first post:
As I sort of mentioned a while back, I got tired of the lack of font editor for C&C1, and even more tired of Siberian_GRemlin sitting on his (working) version for about 10 years now.
So I've decided to make my own in c#. With the help of the RA++ team (Omniblade, CCHyper & Tomsons26, anyway) I figured out the font format itself, and managed to make code to read it and show it as image. Apparently this format is used for quite a bit more than C&C1 and RA1; we used fonts from Legend of Kyrandia as test material as well, and apparently this should support Dune II too.
Fonts have no colour palette of their own. They are 4-bit (meaning, 16 colour) images that, much like SHP files, receive colours from the game at the moment they're drawn. So I started off by generating a simple black-to-white fade for the palette, with black as the background color. This version also already moved the character down according to the extra Y-offset in the file.
Next step: making an actual editor. I already had a zooming pixel image viewer from a little C&C-N64 project I worked on in the past few weeks, so that part was no problem (as already seen in the previous image). So the next step: drawing an editing grid on it. Well, I say "on it", but actually I needed three extra image layers positioned both behind and in front of the original image to pull it off, lol. Transparency is a strange thing in .Net controls.
Next was getting a pixel drawn on that to indicate your editing position. That was easier than expected, really, and now I had a nifty giant pixel following my mouse around. Also note the fancy program icon; Tomsons26 made that
I decided, around this time, to switch to a more colourful palette that would let you easily distinguish the different indices when editing. I just basically went over all hue values and made a nice little rainbow. I also coded in some extra behaviour to allow disabling the grid, and the red frame that shows you which part of it is actually editable.
Of course, an editor is utterly useless if it can't actually save files, a little detail Siberian_GRemlin seemed to forget when he released a "demo" of his editor... eight years ago now. So after editing worked, I went into the mess of trying to save the image data back to palette.
It took a few tries to get it right.
But, finally, I managed to get a saved file!
No, wait, crap, that's one of the failed ones. Ahem. Anyway. The pic I linked before shows the final successful attempt. There's a little pixel I made transparent, in the middle, to prove it was actually edited. Trust me, it was orange originally
Now, there's just one thing still missing from the editor... and that's, well, the actual editing, more or less. I could only change the colour to one specific one with the left mouse button, and to background (transparency) with the right mouse button. So I dug up another nice control I had lying around for one of my older projects, namely a palette-loading colour selector. Took some time to adapt it, since the original was meant for 256 colours, but, I'm happy with the final result!
It's starting to look good, no?
At this moment, it's still missing some vital features, though; you can't change the size of the images or their Y-offset, and you can't add new character images to a font. These will come later, but at this moment, I do actually have a working editor.
It's obviously still beta at the moment, but to anyone who wants to mess around with it, here it is:
Westwood Font Editor v0.4
The source code is in the folder too, for those who are interested.
