General information

Multiplayer community is officially maintained by XWIS, with instructions on their website.[1]

Patches

  • Official Patch 1.006. General bug, network and exploit fixes. [1]

Issues and Fixes

Changing resolution

For changing resolution open files RA2.ini and RA2md.ini with any text editor and type your resolution there:

[Video]
ScreenHeight=XXXX
ScreenWidth=XXXX

Where ScreenHeight and ScreenWidth are your desired resolution.

Crashes

"***FATAL*** String Manager Failed to Initialize Properly" This error can be resolved on all versions of Windows by setting RA2md.exe and Yuri.exe to run in Windows 98/ME compatibility mode and/or forcing to run as administrator (in compatibility tab) for all users.

LAN patch (fan made)

This is a small patch that lets you play LAN on Command & Conquer: Tiberian Sun and Red Alert 2 (and their expansion packs) in Windows 2000 and above by changing IPX protocol to UDP. [2]
