Below is the official step-by step guide to playing Tiberian Dawn (C&C1) online, both the original version and from the C&C The First Decade compilation DVD.

Installation Instructions:

  1. Download the network patch.
  2. Extract thipx32.dll to somewhere like your desktop
  3. Copy the patch file into the C&C 95 installation directory, by default this is located at C:\Westwood\C&C95 or C:\Program Files\EA GAMES\Command & Conquer The First Decade\Command & Conquer(tm) for The First Decade version.
  4. It should ask you to confirm the replacement of thipx32.dll, click yes.
  5. Download and install the Westwood Chat software.

Playing Instructions:

  • Start the game. For TFD users, launch it from The First Decade menu:

    Log in to Westwood Chat with your XWIS username - if you have played any C&C game in the compilation (except Generals) online since 2005, you have a username. If not, enter the username and password you would like to use and it will be registered for you. For more information see our online section.
