Installation Instructions mod C&C3: Tacitus Revolution
The mod requires Command & Conquer 3: Tiberium Wars version 1.10 (EA App/Steam) or 1.09 (retail disc version).
Open File Explorer, navigate to "Documents", and find the folder "Command & Conquer 3 Tiberium Wars". Inside it there should be a folder called "Mods". If it is not there, create it. It is usually created automatically on the first launch of the game.
Move the folder "TacitusA" from the archive into the "Mods" folder.
Create a shortcut to CNC3.exe, open its properties, and add -ui to the target field so the game launches through the launcher. The result should look something like this: D:\Games\Command and Conquer 3 Tiberium Wars\CNC3.exe" -ui
Alternative method: go to the game's properties in Steam and enter -ui in the launch options.
Launch the game using the shortcut or through Steam.
The launcher will open. Go to the "Game Browser" menu, then switch to the "Mods" tab, select the mod, and click "Launch Game".
Enjoy!
Platform-specific launch notes
EA App (formerly Origin) Since C&C series games are typically installed to C:\Program Files\EA App, mods work the same way as regular mods for C&C3 and Red Alert 3. However, you must use a shortcut with the -ui parameter to open the mod management panel.
If you experience issues launching the game or mods through EA App or Steam, you may need to install the C&C Ultimate Edition Fix by Bibber.
Gameplay notes
"Out of memory" error If an "Out of memory" message appears even after applying the 4GB Patch utility, set texture quality to medium and disable Anti-Aliasing to reduce memory usage. All SAGE engine games are 32-bit and can use a maximum of 2 GB of RAM, or up to 4 GB after applying the 4GB Patch.
If maps do not appear in-game Use BIG Extractor by Bibber to extract the maps and place them in the following directories:
Windows Vista/7/8/10/11: "C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Command & Conquer 3 Tiberium Wars\Maps"
Windows XP: "C:\Documents & Settings\username\Application Data\Command & Conquer 3 Tiberium Wars\Maps"
Maps must be placed in separate folders.
Using Kane's Wrath maps with Kane's Wrath textures. The file ArtKW.big contains the necessary textures. Place it in the "Core\1.0" folder in your C&C3 directory and add the following line to config.ini: add-big ArtKW.big
Unlocking the Intel Database and modified hotkeys. The package includes an archive IDB.rar. Place its contents in your C&C3 profile folder: "C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Command & Conquer 3 Tiberium Wars\profiles". Place hotkeys.ini in the same location if you wish to use the modified key layout.
Civilian objects. Place the file WBData_1.1.big in the "Core\1.0" folder in your C&C3 directory and add the following line to config.ini: add-big WBData_1.1.big. The author does not recommend loading WBData_1.1.big via the .skudef file, as the game will recognize it as a separate mod rather than part of the overall package.
Eurostyle UAW font. For correct interface display, extract and install the Eurostyle UAW font from the file TacitusA_0.6_Misc.big (shown here as an example).
Changing launcher splash screens. To replace the C&C3 TA launcher splash screens, extract or replace the relevant files from the archive Launcher.rar in the "Launchers" folder in your C&C3 directory.
