Product: Command & Conquer RemasteredPlatform:PCSummarize your bug My sidebar is black/blank. It does not matter how I change the graphics options the sidebar remains black, which is realy frustrating! How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Not sureWhat happens when the bug occurs? You cannot enjoy the game you have been waiting for for years...What do you expect to see? My sidebar.....How do I get to see my sdebar???

Same problem here, at least i can see the titles and build stuff but real hard to toggle infantry etc also in the options menu there are no interactive buttons, virtually impossible to play.

It’s on both c&c and red alert. Some of the overlay graphics are not showing on the options screen either.

I have same issues the sidebar is clear I can build but its blind and cant build any units after I build barracks and can't turn off the music or slow game down

Same problem here, on all the menus.

HI had the same problem with command & conquer remastered spent 3 days trying different things tomake it work with graphics on the side bar. And to great success it now works perfect and it is easyto solve.1. Once downloaded make sure you use the run logo in the picture on Origin. This should go through acomplete install and update proceedure. If does not do this then the download may not have completedcorrectly.2. Ensure your video card is as recommended in the game spec requirements which can be found online.3. Ensure you have direct x 11 or 12 installed if not download it and install it needed.After ensuring I had direct x 12 and a graphics card of higher spec i uninstalled the none workingdownload and cleared registers using winoptermizer and re downloaded and after that clicked on the runbutton in Origin and it installed and all worked well all sidebar graphics ect.Hope this helps

Use the key Q W E R T Y they toggle through the menus. It helps but mine is blank too.

Use the keys QWERTY they help you toggle through so you can make more men

Here is what I did:
1) Right click on desktop, open NVIDIA Control Panel (https://imgur.com/eZo16dT)
2) Go to the Manage 3D Settings section, select "High-performance NVIDIA processor" (https://imgur.com/dbvnI9Y)
3) Play with the menu bar visible 🙂

Question on this ... if you you right click on desktop and do not see NVIDIA control panel than does that mean I need to upgrade my graphics card?
I am attempting this on windows 10, but I run my windows through parallels 11. Not sure if that matters or not.
