C&C: ShockWave is an enhancement mod for C&C Generals: Zero Hour.

The main goal of this mod is to make Zero Hour a more interesting game with more diversity between the generals, making you think twice before you select a certain general, and overall provide more choices, diversity, and strategic freedom than in Zero Hour - while keeping the spirit and design direction of the original Generals game and storyline.

ShockWave will include 3 new Generals in version 0.95, over 100 new units, tons of new structures, upgrades and maps, a fully working navy, and many other gameplay tweaks. ShockWave also provides completely custom made sound effects and music, new in-game weapon effects and visuals, bug fixes, and an improved battlefield overview with a higher viewpoint.

The 3 new generals - Deathstrike, Ironside and Leang will get their own general's challenge maps, and we will implement their voices, taunts and personality as EA intended. Part of ShockWave's intent is to clean up EA's rushed release job and let people enjoy the game the way it was meant to be. The Navy will be added in version 1.0, however that's only accessable on special Navy-compatable maps, because you can't have a Battleship in a pond. There is currently no AI for the three new generals, but they will be added eventually.

The next release will be version 0.96; as version 0.952 has been larger than expected and thus will has been renamed 0.96 and will be a full release instead of a patch. The next version will fix some of the balance and redundancy issues with 0.951. It will also well as add some new units and fix some bugs. Whether the new AI will be added in the next release has yet to be determined, but work is being done for the AI for the new generals as well as fixes to the old ones. 

ShockWave runs closed and open beta versions, and we strive to preserve balance between all the different factions to make sure the game is equally enjoyable online and offline. Bug hunting is top priority for us, and ShockWave is one of the most stable mods out for Zero Hour. Even so, Shockwave is still a Beta, and there are bound to be bugs we haven't fonud yet.

Please Don't ask for the release date, or even an estimate, as there is never a release date. 

NOTE: Currently most of our team is working on another mod, Rise of the Reds, consequently there will be a lot less media updates. Work on Shockwave has resumed to a small degree though.

NOTE: If you ask any tech support questions in the comment box, they will be deleted. Get support at the offsite forums instead. Before you ask, remember this: try a clean install first. (make sure there aren't any files left behind after the uninstall)
- The install order is for the latest version is:   Gen.  >  ZH  >  ZH 1.04 patch  >  SW v0.95  >  SW v.0951 patch
* If your using The First Decade, you need not install the 1.04 patch as TFD comes with it.

Happy Halloween Shockwave fans!

The Shockwave Warfactory has produced another unit for the mighty Shockwave army!

 

USA Enforcer Tank

The new Enforcer Tank is the ultimate example of US technology. After many failed prototypes and countless years of research a battle ready model of the Philadelphia warp drive was fitted into the tank. This allows it to reach up to a certain amount of distance in an instant. May the threat be close or far, Alexander now attacks her enemies swiftly and without warning. Enemy generals have tried to study and learn from this new threat but so far none of them were destroyed one in combat for them to inspect.
It is unknown at this time of the maximum range this tank can ‘teleport’ itself or how often it can repeat the process. The Enforcer left the public astonished. Scientists claim it would not be possible for the tank’s crew to survive under warp conditions, especially after repeated warps, claiming the crew would eventually be completely wiped out. They also challenge the fact of how the tank can maintain its structural integrity. Many are calling the tank a hoax. 
Even if warp technology was discovered it would be a extremely unstable, meaning the tank under many circumstances would simply disappear and never return again. As more and more of these tanks are built out of Alexander’s War Factories and show astounding results from battles around the globe, more people are proven wrong. By the time Alexander’s enemies fear her, it will be too late.

Ok then if no more suggestions are accepted. Moving on, is there a way for me to give the Katyusha to Kassad, Topol-M to Deathstrike, Scud Launcher to Juhziz and the FROG-7 to the standard GLA faction? Basically, I want to tweak/change the units for each general. Don't worry, for I won't publish my "modded" game, as it is for my own personal use only.

You can mod it as much as you want as long as you don't publish or upload it onto the interwebs for public download. There are various programs you need before you can start modding, but a simple vehicle switch shouldn't be that hard.

Have fun! =)

That's a known bug, we're trying to fix that. It will probably be fixed when we remake some of the Generals challenges in the future.
