HowTo / Notes

HOWTO

Replace 'THIPX32.DLL' in the game directory by running CnCNet's launcher one time to get fully working LAN and internet.

To get around most of the bugs listed, check out: http://hifi.iki.fi/cnc-ddraw/

Also remember to add ddraw to dll overrides to get it loading, virtual desktop also recommended.

It is highly recommended you install Nyerguds' v1.06c version that includes bug fixes, new features, cnc-ddraw and CnCNet:

http://nyerguds.arsaneus-design.com/cnc95upd/cc95p106/

Regardless what version you install, remember to add ddraw to dll overrides as it will improve rendering performance a lot if ddraw.dll is included or installed by hand.

WARNING for bug 4487

The game does not run correctly on SMP PCs (more than one CPU core or HyperThreading enabled); HyperThreading can be disabled in the BIOS setup.

SMP workaroundÂ

by David Eccles (gringer) on Wednesday October 24th 2007, 4:58

As mentioned in bug 4487, an alternative workaround to freezes on multi-processor systems is to restrict the wine process to a single CPU, as in:

schedtool -a 0x2 -e wine C&C95.EXE
