@Legionnaire Generals Regarding what was mentioned about italic names and not being able to join. I tried the fix that you mentioned, however it didn't work (in Gen patcher). Any ideas how to fix that?
@@LegionnaireGenerals Thank you man for your effort. Another small question: where can I find a tutorial about how to use hotkeys? (like placing beacons, waypoints for flamers, etc..). I watched some videos from Dominator's channel but didn't find one video about that.
can it work with elden ring i want to pvp with my friend
I have game mistmatch error on zero tier
Any idea on how to get Kanes Wrath working ? i have EA play and this works with zero hour but cnc 3 and kanes wrath dont work at all
@@LegionnaireGenerals thanks for the response.
Awesome setup guide. One problem...
"launch the game in a window when playing via gamerranger" acts like its turning on, but always stays off.
u can manually do it if it doesn't want to work. u can do this by selecting the 'generals.exe' in the 'launcher' folder in the game's directory. if u are using Steam, make sure u traverse through the 'GameRanger Game Location' shortcut at least once. you'll see it in your game directory :)
sadly I got some issues getting zero hour to my game list. Zero Hour is installed on Steam. I did also install all the other stupp genpatcher etc...
Anyway zero hour does not show up. I also cant add the game by selecting the .exe - file. It keeps telling me its not the right one. So anoying to do all that crap and still doesnt work...
I play zero hour woth my friends using radmin since we cant solve the italic problem... the issue is, when we about to reach climac😂 on the game,the game detect some mismatch and..end the game prematurely... any suggestion how to avoid mismatch? This issue haunted us a lot..
I have this problem. How did u manage that?
Do you recommend to play online, ingame using revora, cnc online. Or use gameranger? Last time ive played online was ingame with cnconline revora 3years ago or so.
@@LegionnaireGenerals thanks i appreciate your opinion, im gonna do it that way then
When I try to join my friend or he tries to join me, we get "Connection Timed Out".
His game says "Invalid Game Install - No Online Access" at the bottom left of the screen when it launches... do you know what it causing that? How do I fix it?
@@LegionnaireGenerals Thanks! Does the VPN have to be enabled on both sides?
I might come back to the game
I got Error Code: E096 when i wanted to start it in genpatcher, can anyone help?
You must disable all antivirus before downloading and running genpatcher
works for pirated version?
there was no response after contacting the gameranger server 😩
firewall problem even all my firewall inbounds rule are open for udp 16000, and then turn off the windows firewall and still get the same problem
they keep kicking me outside lol ;P italic and done the same solution as you mentioned in genpatcher network@@LegionnaireGenerals
Cool Service!
Gameranger doesn’t show that I have any games installed (steam) and when I chose where they are it says “chose the right file”…
use GenPatcher
thanks for the video, but im not sure if i should install the genpatch because i have windows 8.1?
I tried installing Gameranger but it wouldn't even start downloading or installing at all. It keep saying, "There was no response after contacting the Gameranger server." I tried following multiple videos but almost all require that it installs at the very least when my doesn't, and the ones that don't require installation don't even work. What should I do?
Make sure the time in your system is correct. Otherwise, try using a VPN like Windscribe.
Pls upload vedio how i can join clan wars
when you install CC with steam, gameranger won't detect CC. And when I try to add it manually it says "invalid Selection"
@@BinaryBitesG use GenPatcher :)
lunch game in windows mode in game ranger not working in win 11 ,, ty for the video
@@LegionnaireGenerals i did its keep exiting the game ranger and asks to re login
Nice
hi, i patched with genPatcher, bought it from steam. I cant add my application to my game - it says invalid selection, when i am selecting the gernals appliction file from the file localtion C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Command & Conquer Generals - Zero Hour - any idea?
run GenPatcher again, and click on Apply Fixes again
@@LegionnaireGenerals thx at least i can see the games now - couldnt run it though - idk whats the deal there was a a symetricNAT displayed.
i can open a room, friend can join, but we where unable to run a match
Hello regards from Turkey ❤
I just installed Gen patcher thank you so much. I'm 15 years fan of this game and. I switched on network optimization but still can not play online on revora net. Connection time out problem. I give up playing on revora so, I want switch off network optimization but that doesn't switched off When ever I open Gen patcher, that button is active. Might it be a problem or not? Thank you for this great patch 🙏💐
switch off your anti-virus, then download genpatcher again, then run it. u should be able to switch it off without any problems. GenPatcher keeps track of the optimizations it performed, and it simply undoes them. unless u manually did anything with firewalls or network settings, everything should work fine :)
How can I play online if my generals is only download through links?
i kept getting miss matched
Those were the days playing nfs underground 2 and most wanted in 2011
u mean 2005 :P
Game Ranger doesn't recognize my Steam version of Generals or Zero Hour. When I try to add them to Game Ranger, it says 'invalid selection', even though I'm selecting the .exe for Generals/Zero Hour.
yeah this issue should have been fixed with v2.07a, but i'll release v2.07b later today (probably in a few hours). v2.07b is going to use an enhanced way of activating GameRanger, so it could be taht it will fix your problem. :) if u want, join the Discord now, and i'll send u the current test version
@@LegionnaireGenerals The update fixed it for me! Can play with friends now. Excellent!
i still have this issue@@Stickweasel91
EA just released all CNC games on steam. I was wondering if you could update this tutorial regarding if this works on steam? Thank you!
EA did not contact me or the creator of GenTool about their release on Steam. so right now, we both are looking at what we can do in order to get things working. please do bare with us...
@@LegionnaireGenerals hey man its fine! Also, thanks for taking your time for replying to this comment. :))
hi question
Why do I move with the mouse and the map does not move with me?
As long as I click the right mouse button, can I move the map? How do you arrange it?
@@LegionnaireGenerals Where do I change the option to full screen in the game?
@@LegionnaireGenerals Sorry I don't understand, at what point not to click on it? I just enter the game, I have no option to choos
I did the same as the video , but getting mismatch each time I am in a game with game ranger
Unfortunately we had exactly the same problem even playing with LAN cables
playing in 2024 thank you

Game Ranger doesn't work, "No response from game ranger" always pops up.
Some guy commented the "solution" of just running the game once, didn't work.

genpatcher link broken
My Games doesn´t found. Why is it ? Please help me guys. :(
install the game, then use GenPatcher.
I bought it through the EA app do I still have to run gen tool? I think it is already patched right?
yes, use GenPatcher to patch the game, and use it to install GenTool
like y suscrip... gracias por el aporte
great!
Cool video Legionnaire, but I have a problem. Experienced this playing with my brother and when my brother's friend and him were playing. Few seconds into the game, it either times out or crashes. There were cases that the game crashed for both parties, others were timed out. We all have the Ultimate collection copy from EA play and we'd like to really play the game badly. My operating system is Windows 11 while my brother's friend and him are Windows 10. Hope you can help me with this.
P.S. I'm out of options already.
@@LegionnaireGenerals It shows the "serious error" box
@@LegionnaireGeneralsey man, when i try to enter in men of war as1 server It says "wait for Steam to launch" and doesnt do nothing if u or anyone has the solution say pls, i searched and none has the solution
Does this tutorial also apply to the ShockWave mod? I have it installed, but don't see games with it and can't host it, even though on GR's website it explicitly names it as a compatible game.
@@LegionnaireGenerals Yes, as GR didn't work, I followed what you did in your Shockwave stream and Radmin worked fine.
Does it work with other C&C titles like Kane's Wrath and Tiberium Wars?
No
I am still italic even after the genpatch what could be the reason?
try a VPN (if u need one: legi.cc/vpn )
When I want to chose my games, It only COD Modern Warfare, there istn CC Generals Zero Hour on my list.
use GenPatcher
Tnx, thats works. I want play against my brothers.
I hope it will work.
How to fix playing c&c online few minute just surrender, like game's out by its self n lost automatically

I change serial number in regedit but still not working
Any fix for game ranger not finding zero hour installed from steam?
GenPatcher
@@LegionnaireGenerals i used genpatcher and it didnt work.
does it work if i have the same copy on two pcs?
no. you'll get an error saying "this serial code is already in use" whenever you try to join each other's game. you need to make sure you are either using two different EA App accounts, or two different serial numbers
