How-to install and uninstall Cold War Crisis (CWC).

Posted by on - Basic Other

Hello and welcome to Cold War Crisis (CWC), a total conversion modification for Command & Conquer Generals Zero Hour (ZH). This tutorial includes guidance on installing and uninstalling the mod.

1. GENERAL INSTALLATION COMMENT

CWC is compatible with version 1.04 of ZH. The Origin/EA app versions are already patched to this latest version.

CWC is also compatible with GenPatcher (Legi.cc), GenTool (Gentool.net), and GenLauncher (Moddb.com), which are strongly recommended to enjoy ZH and its many mods.

Visit PCGamingWiki (Pcgamingwiki.com) for help with installing ZH on modern systems and for other essential improvements.

2. GENLAUNCHER INSTALLATION and UNINSTALLATION

GENLAUNCHER INSTALLATION

a. In GenLauncher click "Add mod!"

b. Select "Cold War Crisis" and click "Add!"

c. Select CWC by clicking on its GenLauncher entry and select "Install!". Wait a little.

d. Activate CWC by clicking on its entry (active = colored). Click "Launch game" and enjoy! This last step is the only one you need to repeat to launch CWC from now on.

GENLAUNCHER UNINSTALLATION

Select CWC in GenLauncher and in the drop-down menu, select "Delete".

3. MANUAL INSTALLATION and UNINSTALLATION

MANUAL INSTALLATION

a. Locate the ZH directory on your computer.

If you use the EA app, go to your EA library, locate ZH and click the three dots "..." menu. Click "View properties" and locate "Install location". Click "Browse". The file explorer will show the *parent* folder of the ZH directory, i.e., you must navigate into the subdirectory "Command and Conquer Generals Zero Hour". The correct directory contains a file named "INIZH.big": This is the ZH directory and the CWC installation directory.

b. Open the CWC archive and select all files and the folder in the archive:

"Data" folder - the mod's mouse cursors and movie files
BNKGOTHM.TTF - the mod's font for certain in-game text
_469_CWC.big - the mod's source files

c. Drag and drop the selected files and folder into the ZH directory identified above. When done correctly, the ZH directory should now contain a file named "_469_CWC.big".

d. Start ZH and enjoy CWC.

MANUAL UNINSTALLATION

Delete the files you copied from the CWC archive into the ZH directory and its "Data" subdirectory. Success!

Thank you for playing Cold War Crisis!
