Yuri's revenge running slow

I recently downloaded CC bundle pack and i loved yuri's when i was younger so that was the first game i ran to. However it runs incredibly slow when i am in the gameplay. The menu works fine and everything loads fast. Its just once i get into the actual match it lags down to about 10 fpm. Its brutal. I run windows 10 with nvidia. Ive tried the back buffer thing but cannot find the right settings .ini file. Please help.

    What resolution are you using? The TS/RA2 engine is kind of notorious for slowing to a crawl if it has to show too many objects at the same time. And, increasing the resolution on these older games literally has no effect except showing more stuff on your screen.

    That said, 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" 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.
