Just letting everyone know, not doing any changes and won't be updating. One of the main reasons I provided the project files so people can tweak to their own heart's content.
With steam, having -ui in the game launch options should bring up launcher when running the game, but it seems it's not doing that anymore (it's not for me at least, it did when I published this group of mods). EA might of disabled that. They did it for the Origin version so I guess they wish to continue being dicks and disabled it for steam version as well, f*#@ EA. There is this "https://github.com/Medstar117/CNC-Ultimate-Collection-Fixed-Launchers/releases" but it's only for the Origin/EA App version it seems.
Actually maybe EA didn't (maybe some changes with steam or something) but I found another way to do it. In the main game directory create a shortcut of CNC3.exe on your desktop. Right-Click on the shortcut, go to properties, and in the target field at the very end (past the " ) add -ui. e.g. "E:\Steam\steamapps\common\Command and Conquer 3 Tiberium Wars\CNC3.exe" -ui (I just have my steam games on another drive so the path of course will look different for you but you should get the gist of it) With that the shortcut should launch the launcher instead of the game itself (Just launch game from shortcut if you want to use mods and follow steps 4-6 I mentioned in description ). From there the instructions should work fine. As for mod installation it should look something like this: Documents\Command & Conquer 3 Tiberium Wars\Mods\CheatAlien
I did not. First step in installation I say download and UNZIP. Then as I mentioned you move the "Command & Conquer 3 Tiberium Wars" folder into the documents folder. Which is incase the person doesn't have that folder established yet. Please ACTUALLY read the installation steps...
The instructions are more then clear enough for people who actually read and pay attention to what is said. If they don't pay attention and follow the instructions to what is said then it's on them. Also it's a 7zip file not a rar.
