--- TROUBLESHOOTING
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
# If Control Bar Pro does not look correct, then game has modified files that are
loaded
instead of the files provided by this addon. In that case, other modified files
must be
deleted.
# NOTE: Game files outside of BIG files are loaded before any files in BIG files.
And BIG files with names in less alphabetical order are loaded before BIG files
with names
in greater alphabetical order.
# If original control bar textures are shown, then likely game has modified INI
and/or WND
files somewhere that break the install of this addon. See list above which files
must not be
changed by other game modifications.
# If texts in menus are very small, then Data\Language\HeaderTemplate.ini is

modified
somewhere.
# If you are unsure how to fix the modifications you have applied to the game,
then uninstall Generals Zero Hour, delete all remaining files in the game install
directory,
reinstall Generals Zero Hour, (Run GenPatcher), install GenTool, install Control
Bar Pro.
