Does anyone out there no what you need to change in the registry to update a copy of CNC Generals to the latest version?

Any help would be great.

thanks

absolutely nothing.. just run the update, keep the existing 1,0 cracked exe (its just a loader and is never updated).. copy that back after the install, and/or download the no-cd cracks etc...

then uninstall and reinstall i guess.. check the patch is for the right version/region that your game is etc.. if you have the original iso or a backup you should be able to reinstall no problems.

Code:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Electronic Arts\EA Games\Generals]
"Language"="english"
"InstallPath"="H:\\Command and Conquer Generals\\"
"MapPackVersion"=dword:00010000
"Version"=dword:00010005

Odd, considering the installation should have set the information in the registry... you didnt just download a ripped version of the game or something did ya? ;p
