Hi Roderick,

Hi all!
After an announcement that the original Command and conquer is available free for download, I decided to test it. Command and Conquer works perfectly in wine, I haven't tested network gaming over ipx, but that will probably not work. For the rest it's flawless, apart from the losing focus behavior, but playing it in a wine desktop helps.
Remember: KANE IS A TRAITOR! LONG LIVE THE GDI!
Cheers, Maarten.
Hi Maarten,
It will likely run better if you use DirectDrawRenderer=opengl + RenderTargetLockMode=readtex (at least on Nvidia hardware that is fast). Second IPX network should work (if this is the c&c version with updated ipx) but you need root as plain users don't have enough permissions to create a raw ipx socket.
Tested that, none of the opengl modes work well:
disabled: In the menu I only get the menu, not the text that's written on it. readtex: I get a white texture with only the text textex: Nothing at all readdraw: fails too
I'll play without opengl I think.
Cheers, Maarten.
