I have figured out a simple fix to this problem -

1) Download the Executable archive from gamecopyworld.com
2) Replace the Generals.exe and Generals_Code.exe from the executable archive.
***DO NOT REPLACE THE GAME.DAT FILE YET!***
3) Start the game and go to multiplayer -> online. The patch will download and should install without a problem.
4) Exit the game when it restarts.
5) Replace the game.dat file with the one from the executable archive.
6) Play the game. It should work flawlessly.

If you have problems here, you can get an alternate copy of of the Generals.exe and game.dat files from http://koti.mbnet.fi/coixi/generals (the site is in german if i remember, but the file names are clear as day), then follow the above instructions using those files instead of the ones from the executable archive. Those are what I used and it worked.

Be forewarned - you must have the v1.2 patch already installed in order for this to work!

Hope this helps...I'm working on getting the files and info uploaded to GameCopyWorld.

Happy gaming!
