O hard some people said you can play general maps in zero hour the mission maps. I tried and nothing show up. The map is totally blank. What did I missed aside of putting maps in maps folder and write something in campaign,ini

It works now. I ran 7 old general missions first then the 5 zero hour missions in a total of 12 missions.

Good to hear 👍


I've played a few Generals campaign maps in Zero Hour before. Some of them will be a little different simply because there's some objects in Generals that were removed in ZH, such as the Detention Center (which I think was a change for the better), but for the most part I think they worked fine.

It was also fun modding the bonus GLA mission "Black Sheep" to use the Toxin General instead of vanilla GLA, if a bit difficult with getting the scripts to stay working right.
Any old friends still on here can add me on discord @jcdenton2187. I'm far more likely to respond there.

I am having fun ruining the cinematic screen. Ex USA mission where limo and it's convoy has been destroyed by gla so I add the extra behavior in map.ini to let those having a microwave's Emitter but will change damage type to explosion instead of microwave.

When loading a mission you will see a UN Humvee convoy and limo firing an emitter destroying all gla in cinematic and that's made me laugh so hard.
When cinematic is done I can control limo and humvee too which not possible for you without modding.

USA old general ending where we see the president stand with officers and see a raptors marching so I put the self-destruct in the raptors and seeing everyone is exploded and killed instantly.

Same to China ending when Added a self destruct to Cinematic nuke cannon. He explode when firing a cannon which killed all the marches and civilians around them.

I also ruined a challenge mode the small cinematic too.
- Air Force general I am making all 14-16 king raptors explode in the air while flying over my base like a salute to me. LOL
- Tank general have no cinematic to ruin
- Nuke general, I made all their nuclear launchers become paralyzed for a short time and making their nuke cannon explode itself instead of destroying civilian tanks at the beginning however you have no control over them after the cinematic
- Camouflage general. Jarmen kell shot an infantry and create a Moab detonation which destroyed the palace and jarmen kell himself.
- Super weapon general. All 3 particle cannons become shortly paralyzed however she still able to fire a pink cannon beam on your base. I don't know how.
- Laser general I made all his lasted turret not working and his particle cannon also stopped and that saved me 1 tank however he still able to fire a cannon beam. I don't know why
- Chemical general, have no cinematic to ruin
- Boss general, all 3 her super weapons stop working. You will see a whole army in the cinematic were saved because she cannot launch all super weapons on them.

Make sure you edit map.ini in each map folder not the game ini otherwise this will ruin everything.
