@Eggman891 for great teamwork and being a paragon of base defence when it mattered the most. <3

Hi and welcome to the community! Scripts4.7 relies on a valid Renegade installation folder to work. So if you point it to a valid Renegade game folder, it should give you the option to install it. Generally if it doesn't find a path automatically, it means that it cannot find where your game is installed to. Hope this helps!

Try this. Uninstall the game. Install the Microsoft C++ VS2012 Redist from here: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=30679 Go to "C:\ProgramData\W3D Hub\Launcher\package-cache\games\tsr" Delete everything in this folder Try reinstalling TSR and see if it works

Hi there. Have you installed the TT Scripts for Renegade? You can get them here: https://www.tiberiantechnologies.org/downloads

Hi @cyberarm! I've attached a 7z file with all of the icons that we use on the launcher. I hope this helps! LauncherIcons.7z

Hey @dangles20 We're looking to put together server packages for both TSR and APB for download soon. Definitely keep prodding up about it and we'll make sure we get something out. In the past we've been reluctant to release the server files, but we're now working on some stuff so that we can release them for people to host their own games. Stay tuned!

Hi everyone! Just a quick note to say [blurb]We've changed the way that the launcher displays some of our games. Find out more here![/blurb] We've gone ahead and hidden any games that have not been released yet (unless you have access to them as a Tester or Staff member), so games like Red Alert 2: Apocalypse Rising, Battle for Dune: War of Assassins and Tiberian Dawn: Ground Zero won't fully show up on the launcher until they are released. This change should make it easier for everyone to figure out what games are currently available to play. Just to be clear, the games have not been cancelled. This is just a measure to make it more obvious what everyone has access to play. If you guys have any feedback please leave a comment. Cheers!

Tiberian Sun: Reborn has been updated with a few extra maps that were missing from the re-launch. All of these maps were originally made by community member @Timeaua. These maps are: Omega City - A large urban map with a city in the centre. GDI and Nod both have forward bases that can be used to repair vehicles and deposit Tiberium. Dam - A large Dam separates the GDI and Nod bases, with routes that coil underneath the hills through tunnel systems. Tiber - Located near the source of Tiberium around the impact site on the Tiber River, the terrain between the GDI and Nod bases is dangerous and inhospitable. A Small civilian settlement in the middle of the map sits atop a network of tunnels and pathways. All three of these maps are now live on the server, so suit up and get out there!

Added to the first post too, cheers!

That's right! This is not a drill! Tiberian Sun: Reborn is back on the W3D Hub Launcher as of... right now! Open up the W3D Hub Launcher to download the latest version! In a few hours time at around 7PM GMT we'll be firing up the server, so look out for more announcements on Discord as to when the festivities are really kicking off! But for now it's back and all set for you guys to download it! Important Things to Note Because Reborn is now a fairly old game, there might be a couple of things you'll need to do to get it running. It will probably install fine most of the time, but if you have issues, here are a couple of quick troubleshooting notes: If you have trouble with missing redistributables, download and install the latest MSVC 2012 redist. Link: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=30679 If your game isn't patching correctly, try doing a repair via the launcher. Is this does not work, delete any existing TSR game files and try downloading it from scratch. This should fix the issue. V-Sync should be enabled by default. You will want to leave that on at all times unless your PC is very special (like 2005 special). Turning it off can cause strange physics issues. If you have FPS problems when a MSG or MSA is in use, the temporary fix is to disable your shaders (settings -> extended options -> shader slider). We hope to correct this with a future patch. For any other problems or queries, please ask us on Discord. Special Thanks I just want to say a special thanks to those who made this re-release possible. First and foremost to @Wallywood for giving us all a great Christmas gift that's made this possible! To @Einstein for running tests behind the scenes to ensure that the game was in good shape to release, to @TeamWolf for driving the patching process and making sure the server was up to date (and also poking me to patch the game with the necessary files) as well as @Killing_You for his pledge to make fixes where necessary (more on this later!) and finally to @Nodlied and @NoSoldier for scrambling together a testing session at the last minute. Also I'd like to extend a thanks to everyone who tested the game last night to ensure that what we released today was as stable as it could be. The turnaround time on this has been awesome, so cheers to anyone else I may have missed. I also just want to say thanks to the community for continually asking after Reborn whilst it was offline. It's your dedication and love for the game that made this all possible, so we hope that sometime in the future we'll be able to deliver what we were promising earlier this year with TSR 2.0. It'll hopefully be worth the wait for that true Tiberian Sun FPS experience. Final Thoughts We decided last night that we'll be removing TS_Desert_River from the server rotation permanently, so to give the ol' girl a send off, we did a classic Renegade clan-style picture. The map will still be in the game files, but it won't be played on the server any more. Otherwise, join us tonight from 7PM GMT onwards where we'll be fighting over control of the Tiberium like the good ol' days. See you on the battlefield, Merry Christmas and a happy new year everyone! - @OWA and the W3D Hub Team [thumb]thumb_tsr.h.png[/thumb][blurb]That's right! This is not a drill!

Hi everyone! 2020 has been a tumultuous year to say the least. With Coronavirus really screwing with everyone's plans and locking many parts of the world down, we wanted to do something to bring us all together. We've got some bright hopes and aspirations brewing for 2021, but before then we'd like to offer up some celebration to usher the new year in properly. How do you ask? Why, with some games of Renegade, APB, IA, Reborn and other C&C titles of course! Join us on Discord from 7PM GMT on the 31st of December where we'll be hanging out, chatting and playing lots of C&C games! December 31st also marks the return of Tiberian Sun: Reborn to the W3D Hub Launcher, so you won't want to miss any of the big games that will be happening! Click here to join Discord! Other than that; seasons greetings, happy holidays and roll on 2021! [thumb]custom_thumb_xmas.0.png[/thumb][blurb]Join us on the 3st of December on Discord for some New Years celebrations! We'll be playing loads of C&C games, so you won't want to miss it![/blurb]

Hi everyone! Merry Christmas to you all and thanks for sticking with us during this tough year. Covid-19 has tested all of our collective resolve this year amongst other challenges, but we're pushing on through and looking forward to what 2021 brings! You may have noticed a certain thread popping up recently with some good news regarding Tiberian Sun: Reborn, so I just want to take a moment to address that and let you all know about what our plans are. As a special present to the fans of TSR, @Wallywood has contacted us and outlined his intentions to let any legal documentation regarding the project to expire in the new year. You can find the thread below: This is obviously great news for any fans of the project, as it means that we can get it back up onto the launcher and freely develop the project once again when we are ready and able to. Some may say that we already had the rights to develop the game regardless of the documents, but the truth of the matter is that the situation earlier this year really halted our momentum on the project at the time by killing our enthusiasm and drive to continue. We wouldn't have been able to continue development even if we'd chosen to, because we were mentally fatigued at that point. This news is great for Reborn's future though, as it will ensure that it is completed someday. That being said, we do have some more immediate plans for the project. A large portion of the team and I had a quick meeting the other night and here is our current plan for what we're aiming to do with Reborn in the near future: The version that was taken down from the launcher earlier this year will be given a dust off, and placed back up on the launcher. We will be aiming to do a small scripts update and test stability over the next few days. To commemorate a legendary date in Reborn's history, we will be aiming to get the game back up on the launcher on the 31st of December 2020 (14 years after the infamous 31st December 2006 release date). More information on servers will follow in the next few days as we work the details out. Reborn 2.0 is still on hold for now, as the team has dissolved and is working on a combination of other projects at the moment. Battle for Dune and Apocalypse Rising are getting the most focus right now, with releases looking a lot closer than they were earlier this year. We're hoping to produce more content for you guys regarding these projects when we can. We are also working on some internal engine update projects that will benefit everything that we're making further down the line. Stay posted for more news on that in the new year. On a personal note, I just wanted to mention that I had a great chat and a catch up with Wally the other night when we spoke about all this and he made it clear that he bears no ill will to the team or the community. We were all victims of a situation that escalated out of control and now that we've all had some time to reflect, cooler heads have ultimately prevailed. On behalf of the team, I'd just like to say thankyou to Wally for making the decision that is ultimately the best for the community and the fans. We ain't done by a long shot yet and one day I hope we release a game that lives up to what we all want Reborn to be in our heads. So, in light of this good news at the end of a tumultuous year, Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to all! Feel free to comment below and ask questions if you are unsure on anything mentioned! Look out for December 31st! [blurb]Merry Christmas to you all and thanks for sticking with us during this tough year! We've got some exciting news to share about Reborn, so please take a read![/blurb][thumb]custom_thumb_xmas.0.png[/thumb]Seasons Greetings, - OWA & the rest of the W3D Hub Team.

Cheers for joining and welcome to the community! If you want to jump into the ongoing discussion, hit us up on Discord here: https://discord.gg/jMmmRa2 I'll have to take a look for your YouTube channel, it sounds interesting!

Hi everyone, It's been over two years since we last posted any formal updates to AR, so I wanted to just post and assure you all that development is back up and running and better than it has ever been. For the past two years, we were wholly distracted by the development of Tiberian Sun: Reborn, which ultimately had to be put on pause. However, putting TSR on pause allowed us to regroup a bit and take another look at AR and where we were at with the project. Coming up with a fairly solid development plan, we started working on the game again formally in August and have been rapidly iterating ever since. This leads us to where we are right now; running fortnightly tests where we're iterating on the balance and features within the game in order to create the definitive RA2-shooter experience. I just wanted to start by re-posting a link to the stream we did around 10 days ago on the current test build to kick things off again. Over the course of the next few weeks, we will be releasing updates on new features and content that have been going into the game along with images and videos about where we're at and what we're doing. We also want to start updating you guys a bit more often and also engaging you in our development process a bit more as time goes on, so if you guys have any ideas for stuff you'd like to see, whether it be feature-centric videos, development team AMAs, more streams, unit renders, regular content updates or anything else you can think of, let us know in the comments below! Cheers! @OWA & the AR Team [blurb]It's been over two years since we last posted any formal updates to AR, but now development is back up and well underway.

Both the APB and Reborn skins have been given a pass to the point where they are now considered fixed! If you see any issues please be sure to point them out! Cheers!

Hi everyone. We've updated our forum software to the latest version, so there are a fair amount of styling issues present with our older forum skins. Please bear with us as we correct these issues in the next few days. For now, using the default IPB skin is probably the way to go for a bug-free experience. Cheers! - OWA [blurb]The forums have been upgraded to the latest version. There will be some bugs present that we will be ironing out in the coming days, so please bear with us.[/blurb]

@Voe's frantic Polish tones.

Hi everyone! We usually keep news and information on what EA is doing on the light side of things here, but Jim Vessella and the team have just released something that does directly relate to what we do here at W3D Hub. In an news post on Reddit, Jim outlined the intention to update and clarify EA's position on the C&C modding community by creating some new modding guidelines in coordination with EA's Legal team. The way that many communities mod Command & Conquer greatly exceeds the scope of how they were being modded when they were released (including us at W3D Hub and how we mod Renegade), so some assurances from EA have been met with appreciation from our side. So what do these guidelines do? Essentially they are designed to protect EA's C&C franchise from people who seek to do harm to C&C through modding and commercial abuse of modding. For the modding community itself, these guidelines serve to strengthen it's legitimacy in EA's and the wider world's eyes as well as provide clarity in what is and isn't allowed. But where does this leave communities like W3D Hub, OpenRA and Renegade X who essentially use content and intellectual property from existing C&C titles to create whole new standalone games? In this new document, EA classify our projects as "extensions of the C&C video games", which covers and protects our operations at W3D Hub. This is fantastic news for us, as it allows us to push our projects forwards without the uncertain fear that we would get shut down at some point by a cease and desist order. Jim and the team at EA didn't need to do this, but they have gone above and beyond to create these guidelines with the community's interests at it's core. These guidelines strengthen EA's relationship with the community and in it's essence, EA has ensured that Renegade's unique position is honoured and we can continue to make games for many years to come! For the full post from Jim, head here. Also, here's the full document from EA as well, for your viewing pleasure: This is a great day for the C&C modding community as a whole and a great thing to announce in coordination with C&C's 25th anniversary! We hope to making mods here for many years to come and hope you'll all continue to join us on our modding journey. Thankyou for your continued support! - OWA[blurb]In an news post on Reddit, Jim outlined the intention to update and clarify EA's position on the C&C modding community by creating some new modding guidelines in coordination with EA's Legal team.
