Contra 006 packed into RAR self-extracting archive (109Mb):
http://commandandcon...le/Contra;92711
http://rapidshare.co...elease.exe.html
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=4RUVZ0ZW
http://www.shadow-ri...a006Release.exe



Contra Music packs:

Complex Numbers (53Mb)
http://files.filefro...;/fileinfo.html

Red Alert music (66Mb)
http://files.filefro...;/fileinfo.html

Red Alert 2 music (76Mb)
http://files.filefro...;/fileinfo.html

Tiberian Dawn music (48Mb)
http://files.filefro...;/fileinfo.html


The part of readme file you need to read:

2.1. Installation for PC users

Unpack the archive to any folder on your computer. Run "ContraLauncher" file.
Select language and music you wish and click "Launch" button. Launcher will
automaticly locate the game, copy all necessary files and launch Zero Hour.
When you exit the game launcher automaticly deletes all Contra files from
Zero Hour folder.

Launcher has the option - "Leave the mod attached to Zero hour on exit".
It tells it don't to delete Contra files from Zero Hour folder. If
files are not deleted then the mod stays attached to the game and you can
start it without launcher - just start the game. Contra will start automaticly.

If you want to deattach Contra from Zero Hour then start the Contra launcher
and click "Exit" button.

WARNING: It is strongly recommended do not to move, copy, delete or change
content of Contra and Zero Hour files manualy. It will definitely cause
serious troubles such as crashes, network mismatch errors and other problems.

2.2. Installation for Mac users

Since Launcher is not compatible with MacOs, you have to copy Contra files
manualy. To do so copy folowing files and folders from Contra mod into your
Generals Zero Hour folder:

Data (whole folder)
!Contra006.big
!Contra006-eng.big
!Contra006Music.big
game.dat
00000000.016
00000000.256
Ariag.ttf
Install_Final.bmp

Some of these files are already exist in your Generals Zero Hour. It is
recomended to backup original files before overwriting them.

2.3. Installing music packs.

Contra music packs are packages which contain alternative music for Contra.
Music packs will not work in conjunction with with any other mod as well as
with original game. They work with Contra only. Also you can not have more
than one music pack attached to the game at a time.

Once you download a music pack, place it into Contra folder and run Contra
Launcher. It will automaticly detect available music and suggest you to choose
one of the packs.

If you are a Mac user then you can not run Contra Launcher. In such a case you
will have to copy music pack manualy to Generals Zero Hour folder. Remember
that it must not be several music packs installed at a time. So, make sure that
none of other music packs is installed. Remember that the file !Contra006Music.big
is music pack too.

Hell yeah been waiting for this for so long :p. I was wondering if someone could maybe upload the file to somewhere like rapidshare or megaupload. I'm getting like 10kB/s down speed. I can't wait four hours for it to finish lol

I was having trouble with it cause the Install_Final.bmp wouldn't extract. I think my Internet crapping out on me might be a cause, so I'm downloading again and hope it works this time.

The .zip one may be corrupted, it only contains !Contra006-rus.big, !Contra006-eng.big and !Contra006.big for me, nothing about a Installer. Do I have to download the .rar one too?

I think both files are corrupted, I tried to download the RAR one again and this time it failed to extract even more files.

Yup, both files are corrupted and cannot install Contra peoperly. You may have to repack it now, Creator.

Odd. I downloaded the .zip and it works fine for me, the new graphics are awesome.

One question though, was being able to buy general promotions with money scrapped?

Yes that was scrapped because it causes mismatch.

Tried again with no luck. !Contra006.big is corrupted while rus.big and eng.big are not. So uh, that one need to be repacked.

Also my installer to install Contra come with Russian?!

It caused a mis-match error? Damn.

I put up a filefront mirror for the .zip if you want:
