Same it's going right on the CRT. Goodbye Degurechaff and Cain. Hello Soviet Tim Curry.

The safe word is "Tiberium."

Well, usually all parties taking party in a Command and Conquer match have consented to do so but what happens then usually involves quite a bit of non-consent.

Ah nostalgia. Please tell me there’s a Linux port of this.

There's openra.net which is an open source "all the Command and Conquer games" engine, which may be of interest?

[–] foofiepie@lemmy.world 8 points 5 days ago

Wow thank you. RIP my free time for a while.

Im addicted to general zero hour, you can buy the cnc collection on steam and it runs fine.

I wish EA wasn't so shit at programming, it crashes if you minimize the window. Or has a mismatch if theres to many units on the ground.

Theres mods to fix issues, but i cant figure out how to make it work under wine.

EA also open sourced the code and people are working on fixing bugs

Runs quite well with WINE using CnCnet.

Oh! That could be it!

SPACE!
