Re: Red Alert 3 can not play online why ?

@Dennis198212

Red Alert 3 used GameSpy for its online servies, but GameSpy shut down its game servers on May 31, 2014.

However, don't worry: people from the C&C community have long since taken care of the problem, by starting their own community-managed online servers for the game. You can find those at cnc-online.net. Specific setup and installation info can be found on the "setup page" on their site. 🙂

    I am having the same issue,

    I used revora account login detail

    Downloaded the revora launcher

    Hooked red alert 3 on the revora launcher

    Launch RA3 from its shortcut

    revora launcher opens

    Clicked RA3

    Game launched

    Logged in using revora account login details

    Error message "specified account or subaccount could not be find.

    Any ideas how to fix this?

    @Mixanicos You're sure you followed these steps correctly?: "For Generals, Zero Hour and Red Alert 3, log in [in-game] with the e-mail address you used to register, your server password and a nickname of your choice." and "Create the login name and password you will use to log into the server with your game." Following the whole setup guide, should not result in any problems: https://cnc-online.net/en/setup/ Please follow them to the letter and report back if it worked 🙂

    @MixanicosPlease, just read the manual here: https://cnc-online.net/en/setup/ Look at all the images to get all the instructions and you will see "server password" in the second image. Not that hard to just read a guide, right? :P I know this is a forum where we help each other, but I'm not gonna chew everything so you would only have to swallow :P; as chewing, the only thing you have to do is read that guide 😉 If you still don't understand it after doing that, then please report back...

    @Mixanicos Haha, try to follow that guide when reading it on the PC then. As Revora/C&C:Online is of course a Windows-service, I don't think they fully optimized their site for mobile phones....
  • I have downloaded Red Alert 3 from the browser online for free and played the game for a while but now I wanted to play the game online, so I followed the guide of C&C and downloaded C&C online by Revora and then made my server account and placed every info in my game but now the problem with game is that I can't even play the game. Whenever I open the game it opens C&C online then I click on the menu written Red Alert 3 then it gives me a message " CA Public key patching routine failed ", so can someone tell me about this that how can I come back toward the game and how can I fix this issue. Also I downloaded the game from Prophet server.

    @AsadRizvi038 Umm. There aren't any places where you can just download the game for free. Did you just admit to pirating the game?

    If you mean the RA3 browser game, that's a completely different thing.

    What is eahigh_file

    Please share


    eahigh_file? Seems like a misspelling of the code to get the smiley "eahigh_five" → 🙌
