I was wondering if anyone can help me, the TFTW 1.5 will not start, I get the blue zero hour splash screen then a error message comes up that says 'Technical difficulties' you have encountered a serious error.

I've looked at the ReleaseCrashinfoprev file and it reads as follows

Release Crash at Sun Feb 06 17:59:51 2005
; Reason Error parsing INI file 'Data\INI\Object\weaponobjects.ini' (Line: 'Object AnthraxBomb ')


Last error:


Current stack:

any suggestions

thanx

I've met something similar and I believe it's because you haven't patched the game to the latest version which you'll need for the mod (That fixes my error)

What loading screen? There's no loading screen after the ZH intro movie.

But you have to MOVE THE MOUSE to come to the TFTW start screen for some reason!

That is what I get when I tell the tftw launcher to launch the game, I loaded this up hoping that I would get a good play out of it but instead I sat infront of my compute for a full 2 hours scratching my head on how to fix this. Your previous posts here real didn't help me and my will for this moddification is drying up. I'm sure this a good mod but I'm not going to waste my time with incompitent work that doesn't even work. Harsh words I know but in my line of work those are nice. So please catagorize a complete list of fixes otherwise your community will diminish greatly!!!

United States Navy, Half-Life Modder, and Mapper.

I feel your pain people but truthfully I would rather play this mod instead of insulting the people who made it. All I ask is you realese a FIXED version of this hardware that is idiot proof from me and the various others who had trouble seting up this mod. And do me another favor and place it in a easy to find area becuase people hate searching for answers buried under stupid posts. Its's like searching through the navy knowlegde site its like a labrinth. This seem like you put a lot of time in it and what sparked my intrest was moddb.com's indexes of downloads for this game. Your screan pics are good don't fail me I'm looking forward to this!

First off, forget about the currently available TFTW, its defunct, things have improved since then.

Secondly, of all the parts of developing a mod, launchers are the most difficult, a lot of mods instruct you to just plonk their files here and there and they can be a bitch to deal with when you want to play normal Zero Hour if not can be a bitch to remove, we dont want to do that, unfortunately this has resulted in a much more complicated launcher which isn't always trustworthy. I do understand your frustration with it though seen as if you cannot even load the launcher, the mod is pointless to you.

At the moment Im running through the launcher code, Im also considering just fully making the mod mod toaster freindly, as for the community, unfortunately we lost most of it already, in the end, mods are developed for commercial use so popularity hasn't stopped us from continuing our work.

Noted, I like the first C&C game and its a real hassle to play it online , they need to remake that into a newer version! I was simply hoping this would work but hey if you say its pointless thanks for being upfront with me im just going to unsinstall it and forget about the whole transaction, I'm very surpised though about the quick reply on this so good job, as for handling this matter good job as well becuase you seem mature enough to understand the frustration behind the madness your team has created, do me a favor when you get this sorted out e-mail me at thats_my_chowder@hotmail.com so that I my re-look into your efforts in a hope to even the field. Thank you for your time!

TFTW works fine for me on Mod Toaster.
