    There are 3rd party launchers that patches and handles The Ultimate Collection games but those are for the Origin version and I'm not sure if they even work for the EA App version.

    Command & Conquer Generals/Zero Hour: Unfortunately, we are now out of the realm of games that can be entirely fixed by a simple EXE swap out of hand. Fortunately, there are still fixes. Like all games in The Ultimate Collection (Ultimately inferior, more like...), Generals is compromised by terrible EA DRM. Unlike RA2, you can't entirely remove it, but for it and all subsequent games I'll discuss, the best way to handle things is to used the Fixed Launchers Installer. This beauty applies registry fixes and replaces the executables with slightly patched versions that remove a bit of that pesky EA DRM. You still need to have Origin installed in the prefix (I tried to avoid that, believe me), but once you've run the fixer, you no longer need to launch the games through Origin (and in fact should avoid doing so), or their launchers, and can just launch the EXEs directly. Furthermore, you don't need to keep Origin running. Oh, and mods work again. So that's all lovely. The other fix required for Renegades and Zero Hour is gentool which is a d3d8.dll replacement (add that to your DLL overrides...) which fixes the multiplayer, allows for playing at higher resolutions, offers rudimentary anticheat for online play (in that it verifies and checksums the loaded content) and so on. Never leave home without it.
