     COMMAND & CONQUER UPDATE PATCH.   VERSION 1.07 ----> VERSION 1.22p
**************************************************************************

The patch file for Command & Conquer updates versions 1.07, 1.18p , 1.19p &
1.20 to version 1.22p.

To install the patch file, simply copy the PATCH.EXE and PATCH.RTP files to
the directory that you installed Command & Conquer to (this is usually the
C:\C&C directory).   After the files are copied, simply type PATCH to begin
the update process.



This update addresses these items :

--------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. WINDOWS 95 MODEM PLAY.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

     This patch improves modem play under Windows 95 for some people.
     It is still highly recommended that you turn error correct/data
     compression off on your modem with the correct initialization
     string.  Check your modem manual for more information about this.




--------------------------------------------------------------------------
2. USR 14,400/28,800 UART SPEED.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

     Addresses US Robotics modem connect problems at 14,400 or 28,800
     baud.



--------------------------------------------------------------------------
3. DIAMOND VIPER PALETTE/COLOR PROBLEM.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

     Addresses a special problem detected in DIAMOND VIPER video card
     support. If you experience new palette problems try adding the
     following line to the CONQUER.INI file under the [OPTIONS] section.

     [Options]
     SlowPalette=0

     Save the CONQUER.INI file with the new changes.



--------------------------------------------------------------------------
4. MOVIES DO NOT PLAY WHEN CD IS SWAPPED.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

     Addresses the fact that briefings and cutscenes do not appear if
     you choose the NOD disk when playing from disk 1, or any time
     that you swap disks.



--------------------------------------------------------------------------
5. INCLUDES THE FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS DOCUMENT
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
     
     A file that contains the most Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
     regarding Command & Conquer has been included. Please read this
     file to get the latest information and answers.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------
6. FIXES MONEY REFUND PROBLEM WHEN SELLING SILOS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
     
     The money refunded when selling a silo was being credited
     incorrectly. This has been fixed. In order for a fixed
     version to play with an unfixed version -- possible when
     in a multiplayer game -- a special command line option
     must be used. Pass the parameter "-o" to the C&C.EXE
     executable.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------
7. COST OF NOD TURRETS CHANGED TO 600 CREDITS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
     
     The cost of Nod Turrets has changed to 600 credits. This
     addresses a balance issue regarding Nod turret production.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------
8. NUCLEAR WEAPON STUFF
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

     On those missions which feature the Temple of Nod, some
     people have experienced difficulty when trying to fire
     the nuclear weapon. This version addresses that problem
     by ensuring that the weapon is available on those missions.
     If you have a saved game from one of these missions you
     can get the nuclear weapon by loading the saved game and
     then restarting the mission.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------
9. CHEATING IN VERSIONS 1.07 & 1.18P
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Some people discovered a way to cheat using versions 1.18P
    and 1.07 such that it is possible to place a structure at
    any position in the map, breaking the normal adjacent
    building rule. This has been fixed in version 1.22P but you
    should be aware that 1.22P still connects to 1.18P and 1.07,
    so a person cheating with the older versions (if connected
    to the version 1.22P) will cause a modem or IPX game to fail
    with a "Games are out of sync" message. The solution to this
    is for everyone in a multi-player game to upgrade to version
    1.22P (or not cheat, of course!).


--------------------------------------------------------------------------
10. SELLING BUILDING AND IMMEDIATELY ABORTING 
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The ability to sell a building and then stop the selling process
    in order to gain bonus infantry has been fixed.
