Funpark
"I've been receiving strange reports of odd animal behavior. I want you take some of your troops and report your findings" - Kane
Funpark is a secret campaign of 5 missions that replaces both the standard GDI and Nod campaigns with a campaign where you lead a taskforce fighting dinosaurs. Your tech tree changes depending on which faction you choose though the cutscenes do not. In the 4th and last mission you play as the dinosaurs themselves!
- To play funpark start your game with the "funpark" commandline parameter such as this "C&C funpark" or "C&C95 funpark".
- Nyerguds' unofficial 1.06 patch adds this campaign to the "new missions" menu.
Mission making
The Covert Operations enables the "new missions" menu. This menu is useful for custom mission makers and players as custom missions can be made to show up there. Before this, mission makers had to rely on distributing missions by using save files or replacing campaign missions.
