So at least it works.. That's great. I'm just about to download them for a friend and hoped they'd run alright... Thanks man.
No Problem, just a word of caution, it need to be installed in the default path for the reg file that comes with it to work for multiplayer, unless you fancy editing the the reg file that is. Also to play in your native resolution simply edit the file in install folder called SUN.INI (Tib Sun) and modify the following section to your chosen res or suffer the 800x600 mode you will lol;

I had myself a decent stab at the C&C4 beta last night, after the early negative impressions I'm finding there is some nice things in there after all..... all was going well until I read in the news that C&C4 is to have NO LAN!!! WTF!!!! that's basically put it on the same pile as Aliens vs Predator 3, Diablo 3, Starcraft 2, CODMW2, Bioshock 2 as games NEVER to buy until they restore the features such as LAN and DEDICATED SERVERS. I've never had good experiences using servers such as steams for multiplayer...just look at Warhammer DOW2, when I rushed out to buy that I had no idea they had took out LAN mode and replaced with a terrible online matching service that dumps noobs vs pros despite having rated games....GRRRrrr Ever since then I have actively boycotted games that force this concept to PC games, it should stay on Consoles where it belongs.
Seriously if I want to play my mates I'll have to swallow the crap the DEVS are stating as good reasons not to have the long time PC features we've all come to love, and play them over often their buggy lagfest servers that crap out connections at peak times..... which is not worth all the hassle. It might be fine for countries other than the UK where they have decent broadband speeds and super low pings, but here in blighty broadband is 5 years behind the rest of the world where the average speed is a pissy 4mb connection (I feel lucky that I get 10mb but that's not the point, my mates don't).
I've even started a Facebook group to raise people's awareness of this new trend which is designed purely to damage the PC communities and force everyone into the limited console concept.
