GuardianTempest's Generals Challenge Compatibility Patch file

How to Install: Extract the BIG file inside the archive and place it in your Zero Hour folder. When you're done, just put it aside in an outside folder for future use.

I've conquered the one modding issue that halted my learning several years back: the issue of why the extra faction/general isn't reaching the victory screen even if I destroy all of the enemy's units and structures. After a crash course on Worldbuilder scripts, I've tweaked the maps so that the mission ends no matter what faction your using. Although a potential drawback is that you will miss-out on faction-specific announcer lines or intro variations, but it's not a big deal in actual gameplay. This is definitely simpler than having to make this kind of modification every time I wanted to play Generals Challenge with a different mod.

Do note though that the maps of this addon is still the same one from normal Zero Hour maps. Any mods that extensively changes the Generals Challenge will be better off with their own GC campaign, to avoid compatibility errors—such as a situation where the Generals would have a different arsenal than their normal counterparts, or mods that do not even have the same General roster. I'm also well aware that certain scripts won't play because a faction's units/buildings don't count as valid targets. This is most notable against Alexander where her Particle Cannons don't fire if your buildings aren't in the list. Consider that a trade-off.
