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, maps 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 sometime after version 1.1.

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 as well, and ShockWave is one of the most stable mods out for Zero Hour. Even so, Shockwave 1.0 has just been released, and could still have some bugs that need working out.

- The ShockWave team.

Drop by our highly active forums to get tech support and have a matchup with other ShockWave fans online! (The Ideas and Suggestions forum has been closed as future content is solidifying and suggestions are no longer necessary.)

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

NOTE: Get support at the offsite forums instead. Before you ask, remember this: try a clean install first. (make sure you delete the folder are the uninstall)
- The install order is for the latest version is: Gen. > ZH > ZH 1.04 patch > Shw 1.1
* If you're using The First Decade, you need not install the 1.04 patch as TFD comes with it.

i just unleash the whole general power i have in a single spot (enemy super weapon) and the game crashed (serius error). is this just the game limit or there is something i can do to prevent this from happening again?

Replace all the ".GIB" on the Shockwave files with ".BIG", also rename the "Install_Final.bmp" if you want the splash screen to work as well. Take note that it won't allow you to play the original game until you revert the changes to the files.

Oh sorry mate, can't help you there. Maybe try to launch it directly from the EA app after you rename the files instead of using the launcher that Shockwave provided.

Played this mod ALL THE TIME back in the day when I still had the Generals and ZH discs. Now that these games are finally on steam, I can't wait to boot this mod up again and enjoy it just like I did all those years ago!

I hoping the modding team is still around to make it work on steam! Looking forward to it SWR Productions!
