Re: Yuri's revenge runs in slow motion. The only game in the collection that does that.

I do this on Windows 10 and the game runs smooth, but changing the resolution to anything other than the default 800x600 results in the gameplay graphics being totally messed up, runni9ng in pink and green colours off to the side of the screen. Changing it back to 800x600 makes it work fine again with no lag. But of course that resolution is far too low. Using the ddraw dll file doesn't work - the game menu doesn't even shop when using this and I suspect it's because that file is from the year 2008, way before Windows 120 and the latest version of directx.

Has anyone got this game working in 1080p?

    I have Yuri's Revenge running in 1920x1080 resolution on a Windows 10 machine.  I have previously fiddled with some fixes to be able to play the Mental Omega mod, so I'm not sure exactly what changes have been applied to the vanilla install to get it to working conditions.  Booting Yuri's Revenge Revenge I did recall encountering slowdown in larger resolutions, but were fixed by applying the Command And Conquer Graphics Patcher: http://www.stuffhost.de/files/cnc/CnCPatcher.html

    Here's what my video section in RA2MD.ini settings look like, in case that is any help for fixing other issues.

    AllowHiResModes=yes
