BTW Tiberian Sun doesn't support IPX in XP. So if you want to network play you must use 98. It's laughable but true.

swaaye is wrong!
if you install IPX on your network adapter and configure it correctly you can play LAN nicely.

Windows Vista does not support IPX but this is no problem.
you need to download this patch:

this let Tiberian Sun use UDP instaid of IPX. this will also work under Windows XP so using this you don't need to install and configure IPX in Windows XP.

just to make things clear 😀
