please check https://legi.cc/genpatcher-support or https://legi.cc/bugs.

2. GenTool -- Highly recommended. GenTool performs a myriad of game

enhancements, including wide-screen support, stability
fixes, online-play support using Revora's platform, adding
in anti-cheat functionality, observer features, single-
player & observer extended-zoom, and much more. There is
simply no reason not to get it, unless you plan to use
cheats in single-player...

3. Edit Serial -- Only visible for those with CD/ISO game installations.
Number Some Deluxe Edition owners may have faulty (but valid)
serial numbers that cannot be entered in the traditional
EA installers. GenPatcher allows you to edit your installed
serial numbers in order to enter the faulty (but valid)
official serial number.

4. ADDITIONAL CONTENT
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
 Content shown here is optional and created by different community members.
This section may have more content added over time. You are invited to have

───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
5. COMMUNITY MAP PACK
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════

Any installed map can be found under the 'unofficial maps' tab when selecting
a map for Skirmish or multi-player matches. This map pack is broken up into
four smaller map-packs. These are:
- Skirmish & multiplayer.
- Single-player and multiplayer co-op missions.
- AOD & comp-stomp maps.
- Mod & no-money maps.

Single-player missions can only be played in Skirmish, and will not appear in
the map selection screen when playing in LAN or online lobbies.

───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
6. PLAYING ONLINE
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════

If you would like to play online, and you're new to the online scene, it is
recommended to install GameRanger. In most cases, it works right
out-of-the-box.

If you are a C&C Generals and Zero Hour veteran and don't mind tinkering with
your router or PC, then C&C:Online / Revora could be for you. C&C:Online /
Revora also offers (generally) lower latencies and a reduced chance of
encountering cheaters.

If you have a few friends and want to try out the game online without being
visible to the online community, you should use Radmin VPN to create a quick
and easy 'Radmin server' to play online with your friends. Radmin also allows
you to connect to public servers, however, the user experience is not as
good as GameRanger.

1. Network -- Enable this if you encounter problems connecting to other

optimizations players. This can alleviate connectivity issues for all
3 online platforms. Since this option will reduce
security settings in order to increase connectivity, you
will be taking a risk and exposing your PC (just a little
more) to the Internet. Use with caution. In short, when
you enable network optimizations, your IPv6 functionality
is disabled, your WiFi or ethernet network is set to a
'private network', and a firewall-entry is added for
Generals, Zero Hour, and GameRanger. Disabling the
network optimizations will only undo the changes that
were applied by GenPatcher.

2. GameRanger -- GameRanger automatically launches the game in full-screen

window mode by default. However, switching to window mode can bring a
number of benefits such as additional stability. Enabling
 this setting updates GameRanger to run your game in
window when the game is launched.

3. Hide IP from -- This may be useful for live-streamers who are

game menus broadcasting their matches on live video platforms such
as YouTube or Twitch. This setting will hide your local
& public IP address to prevent viewers from seeing your
IP addresses.

───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
7. INSTALLATION INFO
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════

Here you can find crucial information about your game. You will be able to
see which game installation type you have installed, the date of when the
game was installed, as well as the version of your game.

If your game installation is not supported, please find an alternative and

legal way of installing the game.

There are also clickable shortcut-style links to your game's installation

directories (where the official game installer installed your game), and your
game's 'Data' folders (where configuration files, maps and replays are held).

8. ABOUT & THANK YOU
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════

A special thank you goes out to xezon, who helped a lot with GenPatcher 1.0,
as well as hosting most of the necessary files on gentool.net.

A quick shoutout for those of you who helped with testing some of the
features of GenPatcher, allowing me to iron out some of the early bugs.

Also, a big thanks to the translators for putting in the hours to ensure that
even those who are not fluent in English can enjoy this program.

This project was a lot of work. Starting in 2019 and spanning over 500+ hours
of researching, testing, coding, I really hope GenPatcher is going to help a
lot of people. Before GenPatcher, installing the game and getting it to run
properly could take around 30 minutes for those who knew what they were
doing, and several hours for those who lacked the knowledge and experience of
the many existing bugs. I therefore want to thank you for using this
software, validating all the hard work and effort put in.

If you feel GenPatcher was a massive aid in getting your game running, and
you want to express your gratitude, you can always send me a donation via
PayPal by either sending to [email protected] or by visiting this
