Is there anyone who can help me with this? I need to know what files I need to delete to get my game working again. If this requires a re-install, then I guess it's time to drop 20$ on steam for this.

EDIT: Couldn't find a place better to post this. If you got a better place, I'll move it there.

I wouldn't delete anything, that could make things worse. As for the manifest crash, lots of things could contribute to that from a bad map, to something more complex. Does the world builder crash when you open other maps or when you start the game? Again, I'm afraid you might have to spend $20 in order to get the game again ;(

I'm not USING the worldbuilder, that's the thing.
Never tried to boot up any of the maps, didn't even know how to.
I think that, somehow, all of the maps got overridden by the worldbuilder map, but I don't know for sure.

Huh, now that really is interesting. Could you take some screen shots of your problem and perhaps elaborate on it more?

From my understanding of what you said, is that when you play the game and play on a certain map the game crashes correct? And this is because the game maps have been overwritten?

It's only an idea, I don't know if that is what happened.

Window wasn't resizable, can't get everything
Also, it happens on every map. Caldera of Chaos, Hidden Fortress, etc.

Perhaps there's a way to re-install the files needed?

WOW! That's some mega error! However, something caught my eyes. Do you have any mods installed for the game by any chance?

I tried doing some research on the games base files, but I couldn't find anything. However, if you do have mods installed it will make this whole thing easier... I hope. First I will wait for your response!

Sorry for being late!

I don't recall installing any mods besides the Worldbuilder (from http://www.cnclabs.com/m.../redalert3/worldbuilder/)

I also looked at where the maps are installed, but I don't have anything but my profiles there.

No problem!

Well I don't see the World builder being a mod, but just for some experimentation, try getting rid of the world builder to see if the game will work. If is does, then great! If not, you can always re-download the world builder afterwards.

Well there shouldn't be anything in there if that's the custom maps folder and you don't have any custom maps. If it's the game data maps then there could be a big problem. I tried looking into it, but since I seemed to have lost my C&C 3 game disk I cant' reinstall the game to see if I could get you those base game maps.
