Re: [READ FIRST] Common Issues and Solutions

I actually had to solve a problem with Red Alert recently, thought I'd post it here in case the info ends up being useful to someone else. On Win 7 64-bit I had an issue with corrupted colors/pixelation both in the cutscenes and in-game. I was able to fix the issue by Right-Clicking and going to 'Game Properties' and checking the 'Disable Origin In Game for this game' box. I verified, by re-enabling it which caused the graphics issue to return, that this was what fixed the problem.

I don't know how common this issue is, but it's an easy solution that worked for me without any downloads of patches or drivers. Hope this is useful to somebody.

    That's inside the Origin client, correct?

    EDIT: Nvm, found it. Didn't prevent the colors from going crazy for me. Bugger all.
