Red Alert 2 & Yuri's Revenge !BIG PROBLEM!

I've recently reminded to play Red Alert 2, one of my favorite oldy game. I have an iMac so I've known that it's not gonna be so simple. This is what I tried:

  1. PortingKit - didn't work
  2. Crossover - didn't work
  3. xQuartz - didn't work( I barely know to use it)
  4. PlayonMac - didn't work

So I've done something 2 day's ago, and I started the game from it's Installation folder. I clicked on "gamemd.exe" and choose to start it with Wine. It worked!! But yesterday it didn't. I know Ive done something along with that wine trick but I can't remember what and I'm so angry about it...

I tried: DDWRAPPER, C&C:GraphicsPatch, editing the RA2MD.INI file, the video section, putting everything to value "1". NOTHING!

The game is starting but with a really nasty GRAPHIC PROBLEM. White tiles along with black one appear and when it enters the menu, a black or white tiles are FLASHING at the TOP and in the MIDDLE of the User Interface. Everything is flashing and if I start a new game, it tickles and flashing just like a broken bulb of light, idk.

I will leave some pictures.Sorry for my bad english.

System Specs:

OS X El Capitan

iMac (24-inch)

Processor: 3.06 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo

Memory: 4 GB 800 MHz 8800 GS 512 MB

I really wanna play this game so much.

Thank you!

    I tried installing Win7 with Virtual Box, but it's moving slowly. Please help me!

    Either you're not allocating enough resources to it (RAM and VRAM) or you set your game speed too low.
