C and C red alert if you can find another site that has it for download let these guys know about it and they can look into it - thats another one if its all ok to put up id like to see it up.

And dont forget to click on the ads by google banner ad at the top of the page (best to click on the white writing and right click to open it in a new window - its 5c to the website every time we clcik on the banner ads (click each time you make a post) that way abandonia gets a steady stream of income from these banner ads - it supports the websites to stay up and running.

And it makes the money for google and also it costs the advertisers real dollars to use the feature.

There is no original C&C games who support skirmishes. There is however a tool which allowed you to create your own "scenarios" and your own maps. I unfortunatly don't remember the name of that tool, but I remember using it in the good old days.

I think Red Alert was the first game to support skirmishes. And that's the part I like less from any game, I usually play for campain and solo missions.

Edit: This link has several utilities on it which might be usefull for anyone. Just be warned that the site might not be very respectable, my programs blocked several pubs and spyware.

If anyone can find that sceniro map editor on a google search let us know - it could be uploaded as extras for the C and C games put up on this site. Any manuals or cheats i guess would also be welcomed.

Command & Counquer is the most used name for the game.

The complete name is Command & Conquer - Tiberium Dawn.

I just downloaded and tryied the game available on download on the site and I must say that's a very bad version of the game.

It seems to run without DOSBox or VDMSound, but then the sound get floppy just like if my computer is too fast for it. It doesn't work with VDMSound. I managed to get it work with DOSBox. Altough the units seemed to go at the right speed (or maybe I could have even get the speed a little faster) I remember that it takes way more time to get reinforcement in the first NOD mission than only a few seconds. There might be a speed problem here.

When I tryied to play the second mission, an error occured saying something along the line "can't read mission data". When you choose your next mission, you sometime have a choice. In the second mission of the NOD, you get such a choice. I choose the arrow on the south. I guess the archive is not complete.

I also remember that C&C originally shipped with 2 CD's. The first CD was for GDI, and the second CD was for NOD. The first mission of the NOD was on CD1 (GDI) but the rest was on CD 2... Might be the problem.

Yet I really don't understand how you managed to get that game to only 15 megs! I tought it was way bigger than that...

I believe its better than Tiberian Sun since Tiberian Sun was a bit... dull (gloomy colours and such) at times.

But, as said, without the movies its not that great.

TS was ok if you modded it (like i did )
