  1. A map for Yuri's Revenge I made a long time ago with my old pseudonyme. A small map for 4 players in the snow, with a dangerous base at the center. (Unfortunately, when I made the map, I didn't speak english so it's in french, sorry for that. But if you want to translate it and/or modify it, feel free to do so.).
  2. Seriously, this isn’t the demo or trial version. This is the real deal – the FULL version of both Command & Conquer: Red Alert 2, and Command & Conquer: Yuri’s Revenge. Of course, these are really old games. Red Alert 2 was released on October 23, 2000 while Yuri’s Revenge came out on October 10, 2001. Still, these are great games to.

In this tutorial im going to show how to play Red Alert 2 and Yuri's Revenge on Windows 10. Both can work 'out of the box' after install, but that's not always the case. You might see graphic errors where all he textures are green, you might get black screen, alt+tabbing crashes whole game, cannot play windowed, etc. but again we have to thank the active community that has made fixes to these.

This tutorial will work with Origin installation and it works if you have installed Red Alert 2 or Red Alert 2 Yuri's Revenge from original image files or CD.

Installing CnC-DDraw to Red Alert 2 and Yuri's Revenge

CnC-DDraw is GDI, OpenGL and Direct3D 9 re-implementation of the DirectDraw API for classic games for better compatibility with Windows XP, Vista, 7, 8, 10 and Wine. CnC-DDraw fixes many of the graphical bugs in the Command & Conquer games that use 256-color full-screen DirectDraw as graphics system. It was specifically developed for Command & Conquer Gold and Red Alert, but was developed further to support other games.

CnC-DDraw gets around game bugs by means of a ddraw.dll file put in the game folder, which then receives and handles all graphics output from the game instead of the real DirectDraw system. The CnC-DDraw dll then displays the graphics on a graphics surface which uses either GDI software rendering or OpenGL.

Besides the fixing of palette-related bugs, CnC-DDraw also contains options that allow extra game features like windowed mode, stretching of the game surface to custom resolutions, and frame rate limiting.

You can now skip some manual work by downloading this zip file: https://wiretuts.com/downloads/red_alert_2_fix.zip. This zip file contains cncdraw 1.3.4.6 + RA2.ini + RA2MD.ini -files. Files have been configured for 1280×768 windowed mode. Just extract all the content to Red Alert 2 installation root directory, and go straight to step 7.

1. Go to this site: https://github.com/CnCNet/cnc-ddraw/releases and download latest cnc-ddraw.zip and extract the zip file after downloading.

2. Copy Shaders -folder, ddraw.dll and ddraw.ini to Red Alert 2 installation folder root.

3. Start Red Alert 2 for the first time and exit the game, and do the same thing for Yuris Revenge. When you start the games first time, it will create you RA2.ini and RA2MD.ini files.

4. Open RA2.ini and RA2MD.ini files from Red Alert 2 installation folder.

5. Add these lines below to both of the ini files. Put your preferred resolution to ScreenWidth and ScreenHeight values.
[Video]
VideoBackBuffer=no
AllowHiResModes=yes
AllowVRAMSidebar=no
ScreenWidth=1920
ScreenHeight=1000
StretchMovies=no

6. (Optional) If you want to run Red Alert 2 or Red Alert 2 Yuri's Revenge on Windowed mode, you can do it by opening ddraw.ini file and changing windowed=true and border=true.

7. Right click game.exe, gamemd.exe, Ra2.exe, RA2MD.exe, YURI.exe -files and uncheck all compatibility settings if they have any. Cara install pcsx2.

CAUTION! REMEMBER!
When you are playing Red Alert 2 or Yuris Revenge in windowed mode, it doesn't stretch movies to fullscreen. StretchMovies -option works only in fullscreen mode. It's also normal that menu isn't stretching to full screen. Mainmenu is hardcoded to specific resolution and it cannot be changed! So when you see lot of black area surrounding your menu, its normal. Or when you are playing in windowed mode and menu is really small window, its normal. If you want that your menu, movies, and game is filling your whole screen, then you have to play with native 1024x768 resolution and in fullscreen mode. And you have to make sure that your monitor supports that.
CAUTION! REMEMBER!

Updates to latest versions of RA2 and Yuri plus NO-CD, TCP (network play) patch and other goodies
Install PlayOnMac
Launch PlayOnMac
Select Tools and then Manage Wine versions
Select 1.6.2 from the left list and install
Insert TFD DVD
Click the + (plus) Install button and select Install a non-listed program
Follow the wizard using Install a program in a new virtual drive, give it a name and accept the defaults
Select CD-ROM : CNCTFD and then proceed with the installer, ignore message about Wine crashing
Select Custom Installation and untick all games apart from RA2 and Yuri
Yes to restart Windows at end
Select Register Later
At the shortcut selection, first select Ra2.exe, give it a name and then Yuri.exe
Select I don't want to make another shortcut to finish
Two new progams should appear in PlayOnMac's window and also on your Desktop
Select either and then click Configure
Select the Display tab

Notes:
For Network play you'll need to add a DLL override for wsock32.dll - I have not tested this
Click Configure in PlayOnMac on either game
Select the Wine tab and then click Configure Wine
In the popup dialog select the Libraries tab
Type in wsock32.dll and then click Add, accept the warning
I have not tested Internet play but looks like it works
I've noticed that RA2 will play fine full screen at 1024x768 but Yuri lags at that resolution - you need to use 800x600
A work around is to use the Wine 1.7.X development version, which I find runs very well - your mileage may vary

You can play this great mod under Wine too, you just need an extra library so it doesn't crash on open
