The First Tiberian War (TFTW) converts C&C Generals: Zero Hour into the original C&C. We aim to make it as close TD as we can using the generals engine and subsequently recreate the passion and enthrillment of the first comand and conquer.

This modification will try to recreate the original gameplay and feel of the original C&C in an extended 3D environment by making a more detailed interpretation of the original ingame C&C universe and using some of the environments as depicted in the original C&C action scenes as inspiration. Generally we are expanding on the original C&C terrain theatres.

Sorry for being quite dormant for a while, seen as I've been extremely busy both education and career wise for the last year and a half we simply didn't have the time to update everyone on the progress of the mod. Faced with having to cut down on the time spent working on the mod we had let news updates suffer rather than mod progress.

Anyway, now that things have freed up a little, I've taken the opportunity to upload a few new screenshots, since the last version we've focused heavily on the quality of the mod, some of the environment (new textures etc), and the interface functionality. By far the most prominant feature of the upcoming version of TFTW will be the interface.

The new interface, in trying to implement a classical C&C 'access everywhere' feature, is based on a RA2/C&C3 interface, that is, a primary selected barracks can be accessed through the infantry tab, a primary selected Warfactory can be accessed through the warfactory tab, etc etc. You can still build units from several production buildings simultaineously, like in C&C 3, however you can only have a shortcut to one production building in each class (this includes if you have the equivelent unit class production buildings from both sides).

In addition, the new interface allows the player to skip through the classic C&C music tracks with a next and previous feature.

Various other improvements made will be elaborated on at a later date.

I guess you could call the mod dead but really all's not lost. The work we did in the past while has really paid off when helping with the Tiberian Dawn C&C3 mod.

Now previously, I was intending finishing off TFTW no matter what for one main reason, not every owner of Zero Hour may be able to run the C&C3 engine, plus, it is asking them to buy another game.

Frankly though, the C&C3 engine is a lot more efficient and low req friendly than the ZH engine, and considering the price of C&C3 now and how much better it supports old style C&C games than the ZH engine there really isn't a good reason for continueing TFTW on top of the fact that it was difficult to retain staff for such a project, in particular modelers and skinners.

Mind you though, lessons were not only learned with the work done on TFTW over the past few years but a lot of the work, (such as the coding and some assets) were useful as well in the Tiberian Dawn project. If you liked TFTW you're seriously going to love TD, believe me.

ive got TFD and got that message two. To fix it go into your Zero Hour folder and change all the file extensions from .TFTW to .big. that should make it work. Just run ZH normally after that and it should run fine. But first go onto folder options on at top and click "show file extensions".

Hi guys, bit of good-news/bad-news here, first off, the bad, I'm sure a lot of you have noticed things have been slowing down with TFTW, things have improved a lot since the last release but i don't think we're going to make another, there is a level of quality I wanted the mod to reach before the next release that is now unreachable due to the lack of staff for Generals/Zero-Hour mods and the realisation of certain engine limits.

The good news is, not a single bit of what has been done for TFTW has gone to waste, I'm not sure whether anyone noticed but the C&C3 mod, Tiberian Dawn, is now located on the same network as us, I've been providing advice, balance coding and various other help for the last 3/4 months now, and with remake Mods this sort of experience goes a long way.

I'm not ruling out another release as of yet, I may still release it as is, but my own obsession over the perfection for TFTW is holding me back.

Don't use the launcher or the other script! Install the mod (in the ZH directory) and run generals ZH the normal way.
