Re: Command & Conquer The first Decade

@taherfahmy

Then I'd say, install the community patch I linked to in my first reply. It makes all the games no-cd.

Do note that for C&C1, RA1 and TS there have been quite some updates to the community patches since TFD, so you might want to update those further after installing it.

Command & Conquer 1:

Red Alert 1:

Tiberian Sun:

And for Red Alert 2, if you got any graphis issues, the graphics system patch DDWrapper is known to solve a lot of them. If you have issues like that, download the zip file and extract "ddraw.dll" and "aqrit.cfg" into your game folder. Then, open the configuration file "aqrit.cfg" in Notepad, change the "ForceDirectDrawEmulation" option to 1, save the file, and the game should work.

    Please read all my posts here instead of just the one marked as solution. The ddwrapper one has nothing to do with the CD issue; I mentioned the answer for that in my earlier reply.
