I STILL can't get C&C3 to work...can't even get passed the initial installation process...

Error1316. A network error occured while attempting to read from the file E:\cnc3std.msi

i returned it and got another copy but still the same shit...so annoyed

i hope i don't have any problems with Red Alert, though...i agree with you on RA2...awesome and fun game!

I have a beta key for RA3 however I need to download it and so far havn't done so..... Seeing as it releases in a month I may not bother and just get the full game.

For it to succeed in my book it just needs to be non-buggy. C&C3 and kane's wrath expansion was so buggy to the point I raged and uninstalled it a month ago to never play it again. With EA taking over all the companies that make decent games and then monopolising and marketing the new games it makes for alot of mediocrity..... I hope RA3 is something that EA does a good job with :dry:

nah mate it didn't have any viruses on it...... but then again I did buy it when I was in taipei and all the instructions are in chinese :(

but yeah it had issues especially on kane's wrath whereby if you ran a different resolution from what you were running in windows it would crash randomly - this was a common problem that could only be fixed by changing in game resolution to your windows one (only reason I was running a lower ingame resolution was to improve frames per second as it was a big slow at times).

Another issue I had was if I ran a skirmish game with any more than 3 computer AI opponents it would crash before starting. Alot of other people on gaming forums had the same problems as me and EA did nothing about it.

My computer is about 3 years old but with upgrades etc. it does sit above the minimum specifications by a fair bit so theoretically it shouldn't have any issues. That said the resolution/crashing issue was reported by people with top of the line systems with 8800 gfx cards......

Anyhoo I hope RA3 is better :D

RA2 wasn't that bad tbh

    • Well, this is probably where a wiring diagram and a multimeter come into play.
    • I can say to anyone thats doing this; having done a number of R clusters; just be careful if its an unknown cluster.  It takes a bit of force to pull up; but if it feels excessive then its probably stuck. I've had this and pulled the entire hair spring out; and I can tell you; its not easy getting the correct spring replacement with the correct inner diameter and winding. In my case someone had used some sort of adhesive to stick it to the spindle and it pulled the whole spindle out; which the force seperated the hairspring from the spindal and caused it to deform.  You may have to clean it (IPA); or in my case if i'd known i should have used some sort of solvent on it.  Also check out Cruizin Central on eBay. He does all sorts of dials; and you can email him with any custom designs you want. So if you want like certain logos etc...he'll send you a mock of what it will look like then you accept the order and he'll take care of the rest. Fantastic dials and he can do basically any design you want. 
    • Have you confirmed its the actual axles? Also the wheel bearings that mount on the hubs to hold the axles wear out. I replaced mine as they got play in them. It sorted my play issue. 
    • Ive converted a few clusters for the R33 with 320km/h dials. On the back there are some pads which can be bridged or unbridged (using solder or wick braid) to calibrate it. There is one bridge which is for MPH <> KPH; and there are combinations of bridges to offset it. There is probably a diagram  For example; this is my conversion for a 180km/h dial to a 320km/h dial (I put custom GT-R dials on it with the GTS25t layout) If you have J2 soldered (assuming the S clusters have a similar config to the R clusters); you may need to remove that solder
    • Back on topic 😉, these are some of the notable pages from the booklets that are supplied with each weekly parts update. I never knew the BNR32 test mule car had an S13 Silvia front end... *Edit: On closer inspection the test car still had the R32 body, but only the front end had Silvia panels etc.
