SuddenStrike -- some tips
Well, we have yet to put some sudden strike strategy tips in here,
and our appalling record of lethargy is only set to continue. We've
got a couple of game and computer tips so far though that will help
your life in sudden strike be as rewarding and fulfilling as possible.
Fast
launching of suddenstrike
get rid of the opening, very irritating credits! simply delete the
files:
cdv_logo.bik
fireglow_logo.bik
intro.bik
and hey presto the game will always start at the menu. make sure
you keep a back up of these files so you can restore them if it
breaks anything.
annoying background music
there is a way to delete the background sound when you are setting
up a multiplay game: just delete the file
backwav from the
sudden strike folder. make sure you keep a back up of these files
so you can restore them if it breaks anything.
Delete annoying spyware
go to
http://www.usalavasoft.com
and download a nifty utility that will delete all the spyware programs
that gamespy and others install on your machine without consent.
these programs watch everything you do on line, and gets sent to
some strange fascist database in some nameless corporation.
Firewall
while it does slow your net traffic down slightly, a firewall is
useful for stopping software 'writing home' and to stop hackers
getting control of your system. go to
http://www.zonealarm.com
to down load a free, and very effective firewall.
