I've been using scorpio9a's LAN patch, but I switched from Windows Vista 64-bit to Windows 7 64-bit and now the patch stopped working. But it seems to work fine on Windows 7 32-bit. It gives me this error when I try to start Tiberian Sun with the LAN patch:

Red Alert 2 does start but when I try going to the network lobby I immediately return to the main menu. Anyone know how to solve this?

Hmm you use TFD??

And also, isn't TS using SUN.exe instead of Game.exe or is that the patch?

Yes, I use TFD. But the patch has worked before on Windows Vista 64-bit, so I don't think that's the problem.

And I used SUN.exe to start the game, but SUN.exe just starts Game.exe so it doesn't really matter. The LAN patch is the wsock32.dll, it enables LAN multiplayer through TCP/IP instead of the unsupported IPX protocol.

Well then i can't really help you besides saying:

Try running in compatibility mode for VISTA 64-bit
and run as admin if you use UAC

If that doesn't work someone please take over Razz
