Tore of http://cnc-comm.com presents the Xmas release of their Tiberian Sun Installation program!

http://www.cnc-comm.com/community/index.php?action=downloads;sa=view;down=41



New in Xmas release:

The missing or corrupt DLL error has been fixed by setting Windows 98/Me compatibility mode and run as administrator on game.exe during the installation.

The "serial already in use" issue has been fixed by generating random sets of numbers in the games registry entries (with thanks to Nyerguds).

About:

This is a installation program created from the freeware release of Tiberian Sun + Firestorm.

This was created as an easier alternative to the official EA release. This does the entire freeware TS installation process automatically and in a better way and it includes bonuses like the manual and a map editing program.

Features:


Tested and fully functional on:

Windows XP 32-bit
Windows Vista 32-bit
Windows 7 32-bit
Windows 7 64-bit

If possible, you shouldn't do this on XP since the compatibility mode just causes the loading time to get about 10 times longer.

Nice work otherwise, although in my opinion it should give you more installation options like whether you want to install Finalsun or not.

Well, Tore isn't really an expert with InnoSetup... hence the rather simplistic install options. I wrote the script to randomize the serial. It's true that inno offers lots of options to customize which parts you want to install though. Tore just isn't too familiar with them.

Still, I think he did a superb job on this smile.gif
