  3. Exactly 20 years ago (25 October 2000), Command & Conquer: Red Alert 2 hit the shelves in North America. It was the first time a Command & Conquer title was developed mostly by a team other than the original Westwood Studios folks at Las Vegas, and the new developers (Westwood Pacific, from Irvine) would end up making one of the highest-regarded titles in the franchise. A true icon of the genre, Red Alert 2 alone brought so many legendary units, quotes and moments to the, by then, already rich gaming world, and is still well-enjoyed to this day. For me personally, Red Alert 2 (with the Yuri's Revenge expansion pack) shares the top spot as favourite C&C game with Tiberium Wars (again, with the Kane's Wrath expansion). It is probably the RTS I've played the most, and one I'd always put as ground zero for anyone who wants to make their own game in the franchise - do not take anything from it (without a valid replacement), just base the gameplay around it. It is always easy to pick up and entertain oneself with, the units and techs are creative, and the campaign never gets old. I only wish that there was a fourth AI difficulty that would actually put up a fight on its own in 1v1... What are your favourite RA2 memories? Let us know!
  4. Hello! I've been trying to find the lyrics of this amazing song and even asked Frank Klepacki himself, but I only got this from him: Does someone else have more info about the lyrics? I'm running out of options :/ You can listen it from here: http://88.208.38.90/tunes/Frank%20Klepacki%20-%20Grinder%20(C&C%20Red%20Alert%202) Is the second one from the list.
  5. Decided to give RA2 a try with ExaGear (You can get it here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.eltechs.es), and the results are quite impressive! Here's an imgur post with my instructions to get it going: http://imgur.com/QPMMeGE You can also read them here if you want: And here's a gameplay video, filmed with a potato (Sorry for that, but I don't have anything else other than an old phone to record): This is my first post in this forum, so hi everyone!
  6. Some of you who have the original 2000/2001 discs of Red Alert 2 and Yuri's Revenge may have noticed that the setup executable refuses to run on Windows 10 (at least the 64-bit version). I have attempted to go around it, which involves some registry file fiddling and manual file extraction, and it seems to work as far as installation goes, but I still can't get the games to work. Please note that the registry files have my own directory set because I didn't have the time to seek out and test how to do the CurrentFolder method. The procedure does tell you how to change that. With that said, here's a copy of my post from CnC-Comm: Please tell me where things are going wrong and how to set up the games themselves. A hint may lie in this link, but it may not work for you: http://cnc-comm.com/community/index.php?topic=4296.msg31975#msg31975

  9. Hello everyone, just joined. Hopefully someone here can help. I just installed FinalAlert2 for Red Alert 2 and Yuri's Revenge and it doesn't work. Every single time I load it up, its fine, the second I load up/start a new map, it completely breaks. The map "preview" or whatever it is completely covers the entire screen. I cant do anything with the map, I cant close the program, and it wont let me do anything. I've tried too start with/without "admin", changed up properties, and un-installed/re-installed it. Idk what too do.
  10. For many years now, Red Alert 2 and Yuri's Revenge required elaborate procedures to run smoothly on newer systems. Earlier today, CnCNet released an update for their Yuri's Revenge client, version 4.27, which incorporates compatibility fixes (black screen, Alt+Tab), a wider range of screen resolutions in the ingame menus, LAN capabilities and campaign speed sliders for the singleplayer installations of both Red Alert 2 and Yuri's Revenge. This means that you can just install the latest version of the client and run RA2/YR outside that client as you normally would for playing campaigns. It is, however, primarily meant for The First Decade and The Ultimate Collection versions of the games. You owe it to yourselves to get this update. Simply run your existing version of the YR client and let it download the latest update automatically, or if you don't already have it, get it from CnCNet's website.
  11. 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: PortingKit - didn't work Crossover - didn't work xQuartz - didn't work( I barely know to use it) 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!
  12. In this week's Throwback Thursday feature, we continue with our Iconic C&C Units sub-series with the Terror Drone from Red Alert 2. This unorthodox spider-like mechanism was no joke - it was a blazing-fast vehicle that could be used for scouting and slowly dismanling enemy vehicles from the inside. Their drills could instantly kill infantry in the same way Attack Dogs could. However, their weaknesses were Service Depots and Repair IFVs, and if the infected vehicle would chronoshift (e.g. a Chrono Miner), the Terror Drone would be left behind. Enemies without the ability to repair an infected vehicle had to force-fire on it to destroy the Terror Drone that was inside at the cost of the said unit.

  13. After an unexpected month-long silence, our Throwback Thursday feature is back. This week, we remember the "bosses" of the Red Alert 2 Allied campaign - the Soviet Black Guard. This was a small but powerful defense force positioned around the Kremlin, consisting of four elite Apocalypse Tanks and a few defensive structures, protecting Premier Romanov in the final Allied push on Moscow. They also appeared in a cutscene that played after the mission ended, flanked by a Harrier squadron. Remember, you can click on the preview to see a larger and more detailed image.

  14. This week's pick for Music Monday is another credits theme, this time from Red Alert 2. A seemingly looped composition, this track is quite a good pick for testing out the bass on your speakers or headphones. A new track will be posted next Monday. And as always, don’t forget to share this on social media using the hashtags #CnCMusicMonday and #MusicMonday. Also be sure to follow our new C&C Radio feature on the main site for more C&C music!
  15. In this week's Throwback Thursday, we remember a plot point in the Red Alert 2 Soviet campaign which has Yuri manipulating Premier Romanov to give him more power and launch more aggressive attacks against the Allies. While the promotional material for the game indicates that the Soviet invasion at the start of Red Alert 2 was a simple backstab by Romanov (who was an Allied puppet placed at the head of the USSR following the events of the original game), made as an act of revenge for the previous war, which caught the Allies completely by surprise. Although the Soviet campaign itself is non-canon, this might raise the question was the entire Soviet rebellion Yuri's plot the whole time. Either way, this strained Romanov's mind so much, alongside an assassination attempt made to frame Vladimir, that it eventually killed the Premier.

  16. New versions of Open Source HVA Builder (v2.14) and Open Source Voxel Viewer (v1.83) have been released over at Project Perfect Mod. They feature an updated version of the Voxel Engine, fixes for 360° rotation, the ability to cap the HVA Builder's rendering speed to 60 FPS (which is on by default), the ability to change between games and palettes, fix for the View Transform option, and restoration of HVA Builder options from v2.11 and v2.12 that were missing in v2.13. Click here for more information and download links.
  17. For this week's Music Monday, we picked the track Destroy from Red Alert 2. One of the more popular tracks which made it to the (criminally short and rare) Ultimate Collection soundtrack list, Destroy is one of the most intense tracks in the series, featuring excellent guitar sections. A new track will be posted next Monday. And as always, don't forget to share this on social media using the hashtags #CnCMusicMonday and #MusicMonday.

  18. Today's Throwback Thursday goes back to C&C's very own time lord - the Chrono Legionnaire from Red Alert 2. This tier 3 infantry unit could completely disable an enemy unit or structure until it is completely phased out of time. However, its teleportation device (Chronosphere technology adapted to be non-lethal to humans) had a major drawback - the longer the distance a Chrono Legionnaire had to travel, the longer it took for him to fully phase in at his destination, leaving him completely helpless and vulnerable to enemy fire until the phasing process was complete, which could be bypassed by "hopping" through shorter distances. As a bonus, half of the copies of the Red Alert 2 Collector's Edition came with pewter figurines of the Chrono Legionnaire (the other half were Tesla Troopers).

  19. It's time for Throwback Thursday again! This week, we remember one of the more bizarre superweapons in Command & Conquer - the Allied Weather Control Device from Red Alert 2. Developed by Albert Einstein (because of course it was), this device was capable of firing a beam into the sky which would move clouds above a designated area in order to unleash powerful lightning storms which could electrocute infantry and demolish lighter and moderately armoured structures. This one shows how the Command & Conquer series, and particularly the Red Alert universe, was no stranger to quirky technologies.

  20. In this week's Music Monday feature, we bring you something special - the hidden early mix of the main theme of Red Alert 2 - Hell March 2. It found its way into the final game within ra2.mix\local.mix\intro.aud, with some differences about halfway through the track and a slightly shorter intro. A new track will be posted next Monday. And as always, don't forget to share this on social media using the hashtags #CnCMusicMonday and #MusicMonday.
  21. Our Music Monday feature is back again, this time with one of the lesser exposed tracks from Red Alert 2 - Tension, an upbeat electronic track from start to finish. A new track will be posted next Monday. And as always, don't forget to share this on social media using the hashtags #CnCMusicMonday and #MusicMonday.
  22. Another Red Alert 2 and Yuri's Revenge server alternative run by fans has emerged recently. NGWOL, much like XWIS, mimicks the old Westwood Online server and utilizes its lobby structure. Ladders for both games are available and functional, and the tool provided can have the games switch back and forth between NGWOL and XWIS. Information on signing up and connecting can be found on their website.
  23. Over a month ago, the team at GVMERS, who had previously covered the fate of the cancelled FPS Tiberium, created a video on the entire C&C franchise. What you are looking at above is the corrected, definitive version - certain facts about things that happened behind the scenes in Westwood Studios, EA Pacific, EA Los Angeles and Victory Games have been proofread, and each game is now presented in higher detail, in order to better describe what made Command & Conquer what it is, in both its good and bad times. The video is now 10 minutes longer in total, so be sure to check it out!
  24. Back in February, GVMERS posted a video that looked at what happened to the cancelled Tiberium FPS. Today, they have new Command & Conquer video that dives into the entire franchise. The Command & Conquer franchise helped shape the identity of RTS games during the 1990's and would influence the designs of countless similar strategy titles in later years. Even though the franchise ended with a whimper instead of a bang, it managed to create an indelible impact on the history of videogames. Join the team from GVMERS as they take a look at the rise and fall of Command & Conquer.
  25. C&C Music Monday returns after a week off with something different. Over the coming weeks we are going to be featuring awesome remixes and covers of classic Command & Conquer songs. This week we kick things off with "Hell March to the Apocalypse" by The Tiberian Sons. This is one super heavy cover of Frank Klepacki's original work.
