Enhanced 0.9.1.0 Beta Build
Info: Reading this takes only a little time so read it!!!
Compability: Patch 1.4, TFD
Online Compability: Maybe, untested
Lan Compability: Sure thing if yours is not a pirated one :P

Installation
1. Use the installer, duh.
2. Install the fonts provided.
3. You can change your god damn shortcut's icon via right-clicked properties. The icons are located in 'Misc" folder.
4. Configurate your settings BEFORE PLAYING the mod. If not, go figure :P
5. Start the mod via launcher.
6. ???
7. Profit
Features
-Fixed launcher offers numerous new resolutions, finer menus and better performance.
-Fixed memory leakage in the launcher.
-Turning off fog option now works properly.
-High definition control bars have been added.
Multiplayer Mode
-It's advisable that you turn off the bloom, ssao and the water reflection for maximum performances.
-It's not recommendable to turn off your extra props setting since you won't be seeing any grass when they're set on fire.
-It would be wise to play on the lagless version of the official mod maps since it's intentionally designed to be more playable.
Known Bugs & Intentionally Unfinished Contents
-If you see a bullet travels in curve or projectile, don't panic, that's how the bullet rolls.
-Some vanilla structures haven't got shadows.
-If you see a line cutting through screen, don't be afraid, that's the god damn problem I'm having with the special effects which won't be solved.
-Some descriptions might have a grammar error or a fragmented sentence, that's because I'm in a hurry writing it. If you found one, shout at me.
-There is no shell map at the moment but I changed the screen for you non-moe lovers because I'm tired of getting a PM, complaining it.
-Tree doesn't appear in fog of war.
-When swapping the artillery angle shot modes during using-weapon period, the animation tends to clips without any possible fixes at the moment.
So do me a favour; don't abuse and don't be a douche to the units :P
-Voices are pretty much reused at this point.
Known Issues
-Sometimes, the mod doesn't launch, to fix this, run "reset.bat".
-Sometimes or most of the time, the AI just so stupid that it couldn't even build a god damn war factory and continue its existence.
-Some setting options aren't working properly for now, config in game or via options.ini instead.
-Playing with 4 or more hard AIs usually result in crashes
-Unfortunately, due to EA's crappy scripting AI. I'm unable to craft the ultimate AI you were hoping for. Now, here's a piece of shit for EA.
Known Problems & Quick Solutions
-The game crashed via engine error at start-up? Make sure you have a clean install and 1.04 version of Zero Hour.
-The game crashed via engine error mid-game? Look in the crash report then optionally fix the issue or reinstall.
-The game mismatched? Make sure you and your friend(s?)? Have the exact copy of the game and the mod version without any additional addons or mods which doesn't support Enhanced.
If the problem still persists but hardly happened mid-game, it's advisable to turn off bloom and water reflection via the launcher.
-ENB doesn't work as it should? Graphics card driver update or check whether if you accidentally use a resolution screen size which doesn't exist via your own VGA.

I don't know how that works. You'll have to use the mod launcher somehow or wait for the non-installer version or pirate it (last resort).

If you're tired of this, just try another version of the game which isn't TFD. I can't really help since mine is an original release version.
Ok I tried an original version from a friend but i still get the same error.
I really whish it would work because it looks really nice (in the 3 minutes i can play before it crashes)
im having the same problem..... after 3 minutes....CRASH
You haven't prayed hard enough.
