I have the same question Report abuse. Details required :. Cancel Submit. Hi, Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community. I understand how you feel when things does not work as expected. Please answer the following questions so that we can understand the issue better. Do you receive any error? Is the issue specific to this particular game? Are other games working fine? I suggest you to follow the methods below and check. It’s a straight up fight, good NATO types versus the religious fanatics with the mad and sadistic frontman.
Strange how often that seems to happen. The game is similar in concept to many others, tracing its ancestry back to Dune: you mine naturally- occurring minerals – in this case Tiberium crystals – take them back to your refinery, convert them to money, then spend it on units and buildings to improve your army. A similarly equipped opposing faction is doing the same thing elsewhere in the area.
Your task is to use any means necessary to defeat the enemy. Tiberian Sun will feel very familiar to anyone who has played the other games in the series. Perhaps rather too familiar – the mechanics of controlling your base have only been marginally improved. Clicking on one of the unit pictures on the right-hand side of the screen starts its construction.
Build orders can now be stacked although only up to a maximum of 5 , but you can’t queue the building of buildings because Tiberian Sun has retained its predecessor’s quaint system of being forced to place the building only after it’s been “built”. A basic, if slightly awkward, waypoint system has been added for movement. You set the waypoints and assign units to them, rather than being able to SHIFT-click waypoints on the fly. You can set rally points for new units fresh from barracks and war factories.
One disappointment is the omission of an option to wall your base in all at once; small blocks of wall can still only be built and placed one at a time. Also, when moving groups of troops, the default is that they won’t attack enemies en route to their destination – you have to force that behaviour by CTRL-clicking the target location. If you’re used to the more refined interfaces of Total Annihilation or Starcraft , the Tiberian Sun offering may seem a little stark.
Much has been made of the new dynamic lighting features. Enemy bases now have searchlights which look pretty enough but don’t really seem to make that much of a difference to the gameplay. Ion storms and lightning spice things up a little, and are often used to fulfil plot functions as well. The terrain has rich, deep hues of colour and has more of a 3D feel to it – units can drive under bridges and the voxel-based vehicles tilt as they traverse slopes.
However, the 3D doesn’t appear to affect the gameplay in terms of weapon or spotting range. The overall impression is of a rather cleaner and more modern looking Red Alert. The sound will also be all too familiar to players of the preceding games. The music is thankfully unobtrusive and the effects a little sparse. The units talk back to you, but have a limited range of samples that quickly become tiresome. It certainly doesn’t evoke the kind of immersion that TA managed so well.
So what about those units? Some will be familiar to players of the previous games in the sequence. The basic infantry types make another appearance, along with the harvesters, artillery and so on with which you’re probably familiar if you’ve played any of the Westwood strategy games.
The differences between the forces are maintained – GDI kit is mostly heavy armament, big tanks and the like while the Brotherhood get good infantry, stealth tanks and other subtle units as well as a selection of slightly politically-incorrect weapons of mass destruction. The basic units are retained from the earlier games; infantry has not seen many changes, and the smaller vehicles are similar.
But among the many new arrivals are various types of walkers that replace the smaller GDI tanks, rocketpack infantry and hover tanks. Helicopters also make a return, joined by a new helicopter bomber, highly effective in large groups. And the more sneaky players will be pleased to hear that engineers feature for both sides, and have gained the ability to repair bridges. Both sides get some great “exotic” i. GDI has the Mammoth Mk. Nod gets a cyborg commando with an awesome weapon, capable of decimating infantry, vehicles and buildings alike and making very short work of enemy bases.
He’s capable of soaking up enormous amounts of enemy fire. Much like the marine from Quake , really. He also, like other Nod mutants, heals when in tiberium fields. For the GDI, there’s a commando with a railgun that can destroy many targets at once. He also carries the familiar C4 explosives for blowing up buildings. New structures make an appearance too, although the traditional base facilities remain unchanged.
Construction facilities the heart of the base, needed to manufacture other buildings are still just as crucial. Power plants are needed to supply the base with electricity, and silos hold the precious tiberium until you have a chance to spend it. But this time GDI has the option to upgrade certain buildings to increase their capacity or add extra abilities. GDI base defenses now have a “modular” form: they all share the same tower, and require a weapon placed on top: choose from a Vulcan anti-infantry cannon, a rocket-propelled grenade for vehicles, or a SAM for those pesky helicopters.
Sadly there is no provision for placing multiple weapons on one turret, but the turrets do slot neatly into any concrete walls you choose to build.
Nod gets lasers and obelisks similar to Tesla coils for defense and various types of missile silo and production facilities. Both sides get various types of high-tech laser fencing, impenetrable unless the power is cut off. Westwood really deserve congratulations in this respect. There is a lot of variety in types of unit and they all complement each other well. It’s no longer really possible to take a big force of a specific unit into the fray as each type has its own vulnerabilities.
Tanks need escort from smaller, faster units like infantry or buggies or they quickly fall victim to rocket-launcher infantry and base defenses. As before, GDI tactics generally centre on big guns and large-scale offensives whilst Nod players are better advised to use stealth and hit-and-run attacks. Unit AI has seen something of a revamp: at last tanks no longer get confused when negotiating a narrow bridge or pass.
At least that’s almost the case: there is a small amount of bunching and every so often a tank towards the back of a group will decide the causeway is impassable and wander off in some unpredictable direction. But despite the changes, the old problems with the harvesters are still present. If you have more than one refinery, the harvesters won’t go to the closest to unload if there is already another harvester en route.
They will usually head off to the other refinery causing much delay and annoyance. They will always take the shortest route, so trying to attack an enemy base from two opposite directions is right out: your harvesters will plough straight into the waiting defenses and get expensively wasted.
Sadly a few other of the “traditional” irritations familiar to fans remain. One is that units will often stand idly by while their nearby comrades are being shot up, which isn’t exactly ideal.
Two single-player campaigns are on offer, one taking the forces of the GDI, one heading up the Brotherhood and, as usual, they can be played at different levels of difficulty.
The plot is well developed, with each mission being preceded by a few minutes of video moving the plot along. These deserve a mention – they are amongst the most convincing live-action sequences around and the actors are blended well with computer-generated surroundings.
The video can get a little blocky at times but this doesn’t detract from the impact. Plot characters make the odd appearance in missions too, and each has their own weapons and abilities, similar to the commandos. There’s plenty of variety in the objectives; destroying all the enemies on the map still features heavily but there is the odd rescue or sabotage mission thrown in to liven things up. The only real problem with the single-player game is that the progression through the different tech levels seems too slow, and this restriction contributes to a slightly pedestrian feel to the missions.
The difficulty level is set high enough to challenge even hardened RTS fans and overall Tiberian Sun plays a much better single-player game than the competition. Those hardened RTS fans will be disappointed to hear that there is no “fog of war” option in the single player game, but it has made an appearance in the multiplayer options.
Westwood have retained their tried and trusted system. Thus, in the solo game, just as in Red Alert , you can see any units in any explored part of the map once you have built and deployed a radar. If you can take out your enemy’s radar, or the plants powering it, you can “blind” them. Without an operational radar you also can’t move units on the minimap a ubiquitous feature of modern RTS games , as the minimap is part of the radar.
The radar is not-all seeing though, for example the Nod stealth generator hides units from being viewed on both the minimap the main screen. The computer AI appears a little improved, but it still does the familiar trick of sending a handful of units over every so often without being able to co-ordinate this with other forms of attack. Having said that, it’s more tenacious than before: even the loss of its construction facility and the majority of its power plants in one game rendering it almost impossible to build anything or defend its base failed to fluster the AI.
It must have saved up some cash, because by the time my forces were massed for the second wave it was back on its feet again. Especially when playing Nod, it’s capable of springing some surprises and keeping the unwary or poorly defended on the run. One of the AI’s weaknesses is not defending its harvesters properly – by targetting them aggressively you can often bring the AI to its knees. Multiplayer options are restricted: Internet play is only via Westwood ‘s server.
A maximum of four players in Internet games and eight in skirmishes is the only limit. You can mix AI players into “human” games.

June IS there a patch or will you refund some of the cost to me? I know you probably don’t like people saying this but, if I pay for it, I want it to work or my money back. Go to Solution. For Red Alert 2 there’s a more general patch that solves a lot of its graphics problems. You can find them here:. I hope that’ll help fix your problems. If not, the people on the forum of cncnet. View in thread.
August First of all, none of these issues are related to this thread. You should make your own thread to ask new questions. And secondly, you never even specify which game you are talking about. This collection contains quite a bunch of them, and each of them can have pretty different issues.
September What first line? He just said “the game”, and that’s not the person who made the original topic. You assume he’s talking about TS just because he posted in a TS thread. I’ve learned that that’s a dangerous assumption. People post irrelevant stuff anywhere if they think someone will read it. November Unless you are referring to something we are not seeing, he specifically says “Tiberium Sun.
The game will boot up, but if I select any option in the main menu the game just freezes. Oddly enough, I had a similar problem when I bought a similar collection about 10 years ago when my PC at the time ran Vista. Every game worked except for Renegade and the expansion to Tiberium Sun, and even in the main game I was unable to save- but that aside.
Sorry if you are referring to something else, but the man seems to have very clearly stated his issues are with “Tiberium Sun” specifically. November – last edited November Again, the person I replied to there is not the person who made this thread.
KenBlock43Ro did no such thing, and none of the things he said were relevant to this thread, so I answered him by saying exactly that. As for your problem, the inability to save usually means the game is installed in a location where it’s not allowed to write, like inside the Program Files folder.
The sanest solution is to change your Origin settings to put the folder in which your Origin games will be installed to a different location, so problems like that no longer occur with older games.
Alternately, you can edit the properties of the sun. Since you keep on stressing that, I can’t help but point out The game is called “Tiberi an Sun”.

Message 1 of 18 , Views. Reply Accepted Solution. Re: tiberian sun doesn’t run on windows 10 [ Edited ]. Download the zip file and extract “ddraw. Then, open the configuration file “aqrit. It comes with a bunch of automatic fixes, and has a configuration tool which offers more choices in graphics fixes than just DDWrapper, so if one doesn’t work you can just try if some of the other options do the trick.
