1) ----- ===== Description ===== -----

Contra is a freeware modification for Generals: Zero Hour real-time strategy game.
It's a big project started in 2004.
It adds many new units as well as numerous new upgrades, new general's powers and
buildings.
It also adds new sounds, maps, bug fixes, enhanced graphics, and other effects, as
well as three new generals.

2.1) ----- ===== Installation instructions ===== -----

Extract all the content from the "Contra009Final" archive to your Zero Hour
directory. To play the mod, open "Contra_Launcher.exe".
You will find startup options such as music, language, unit voices, etc. Decide
your preferences and click "Launch".
To play online with others, set up ContraVPN.
Contra will auto-detach itself from Zero Hour on exit, so that you can launch
vanilla Zero Hour or any other mod.

2.2) ----- ===== Manual Installation instructions (if you cannot run the launcher
for some reason) ===== -----

With these steps you MUST NOT run the Contra Launcher!

1. Put all files from the "Contra009Final" archive into your Zero Hour folder (NOT
the one in My Documents).
2. Rename !Contra009Final.ctr to !Contra009Final.big.
3. Rename !Contra009Final_EN.ctr to !Contra009Final_EN.big OR rename !
Contra009Final_RU.ctr to !Contra009Final_RU.big if you want Russian language.
4. Rename !Contra009Final_NatVO.ctr to !Contra009Final_NatVO.big OR rename !
Contra009Final_EngVO.ctr to !Contra009Final_EngVO.big if you want English unit
voices.
5. Rename !Contra009Final_NewMusic.ctr to !Contra009Final_NewMusic.big if you want
new soundtracks, otherwise the game will play the vanilla ones.
6. Rename Scripts folder to Scripts1 (which is located inside Data folder).
7. Start the game from generals.exe (NOT Contra Launcher.exe)!

- == NOTES == -
 ***Contra requires Generals Zero Hour version 1.04.***
***Contra works in conjunction with mods that come with a launcher such as
ShockWave, Rise of the Reds, Cold War Crisis, Vietnam Glory Obscured, Generals:
Enhanced and others.***
