Help me

is red alert 2 YR working in win 10?i read that there are problems

  • @Arczix35 What resolution are you playing the game on?

    It is absolutely not advised to play RA2 on your native resolution, since the game was never meant for it, it will just make everything tiny on your screen, and it will cause issues since the game engine can't handle too many objects on the screen at the same time.

    Well, most games run mostly fine out of the box, but a lot of them have been upgraded with community-created unofficial patches that fix a lot of their bugs and compatibility problems. You can find them here:

    Command & Conquer 1:

    Red Alert 1:

    Tiberian Sun:

    Red Alert 2:

    • I advise installing the CnCNet online play installer for RA2/YR. Even if you're not interested in online play, it comes with a bunch of automatic fixes. It should automatically take care of the "black screen" issue, and has a configuration tool that allows further tweaking of the game's settings.

    Generals:

    • GenTool seems to be the main patch for Generals these days. The website is kind of vague on what it does besides restoring multiplayer and adding anti-cheat, but I heard it does a lot to make it work better on modern OSes too.
    • If you have issues with DirectX errors popping up, find and delete the file "dbghelp.dll" in the game's install folder.

    Renegade:

  • @Nyerguds instaler help me but when i play, for 30 minutes the screen is lag and i must quit the game? why is this happening?
