    Hi everyone!

    I think I got it figured out what the problem is for the Red alert II/Yuri's Revenge. Along using the CC Red Alert 2 / Yuri's Revenge Graphics Patch FIX! Windows 8/10, I also used the compatibility program of Windows 10 built in the RA2MD.exe and the RA2.exe within the RA2 directory. By mistake I found out what works when I kept running the program until it worked with the compatibility program that Windows 10 offers by right-clicking on those 2 programs and trying the wizard, but you don't really have to do that! All you have to do after right-clicking properties on the RAMD.exe and RA2.exe applications in the RA2 folder and selecting the Compatibility tab, 2nd to the general tab, is click the box that says: (Compatibility mode / Run this program in compatibility mode for: ) and select on the drop down menu there: (Windows 7). Also select the box near the bottom: (Run this program as an administrator). I remembered eventually that these games worked very well for Windows 7, the last O.S. I OWNED! Do this the same way for the other application, close the directory or folder, and then try running the game. Hope this works and enjoy!!!

    I Used the graphics patch first and it didn't work, so to make it clear to everyone, you might want to try what I did first or do the patch first, then both, but what I did was easier, so let me know guys out there what works?! Thanks!!!

  • I'm planning to apply your solution first. I hope this works.

    By the way, is this applicable for Tiberian Sun too? It has a similar problem.

    Thanks!

    Well, if you look at the changes list, that actually includes the graphics patch mentioned here 😉

    But yea, development hasn't been standing still since this was posted. We got more fixes and upgrades now.
