Re: Yuri's Revenge Internal Error

@87c34f4d223893c4 

A lot of the games 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 on startup" 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:

  • Sorry, I forgot to reply but this worked great! CnC Net works flawlessly with both RA2 and Yuri's Revenge. Thank you for the solution!

  • @Nyerguds Hello, I have the same issue as the OP but it happens when using CnCNet for Yuri's Revenge as well as through Steam. Any thoughts? I'm running Windows 11 on my PC.

    @Vanderputz Since the big update of March 7, a whole lot changed on all the games, basically making all existing patches and guides obsolete. We'll have to wait for the CnCNet people to update their side of things...

  • Thank you very much for the info.  I'll be on the lookout for new information.
