Solution for (non)TFD C&C95 and RA1 LAN.

Banshee

So, do you wanna run C&C 95 and RA1 in your Windows XP? Wanna play it in a LAN? You don't need to buy The First Decade.

Silent Kane and Scorpio9a made a patch for C&C 95 last year that sorts all these problems. With this patch, my C&C 95 and RA1 worked perfectly on my Windows XP (as long as Aftermath is installed). Also, both games work online according to HeXetic, who tested it in RA1 with a friend.

According to reports on The First Decade official forums, some The First Decade users also managed to use this this patch to play LAN games for C&C 95.

However, RA1 LAN is disabled in The First Decade. To sort this problem, Clazzy is suggesting people to use the old RA1 RESLIB.DLL, which contains a dialog with unlocked multiplayer. And, apply the Silent Kane's and Scorpio9a's IPX patch. Since no one never tested that yet, it's just a suggestion.

I don't have The First Decade here to test if the old RESLIB with IPX patch sorts it, but if anyone can test it, we'll be glad:
