No more freeze ups!ĩ This can be done with both Yuri's Revenge EXE (gamemd) and you can also follow the exact same steps with EXE (game) to patch RED ALERT 2 as well. Things should now run really fast and smooth. Its so quick and easy it is self explainable.Ħ Once you have done that, you will now right click on the same EXE file and copy it once more.ħ Re-paste that file back where you got it from in step 3Ĩ Your all done. You will then want to paste that file in the folder with the patch you created earlier on your desktop in step 2.ĥ Now you will want to run the patch file and activate the patch. It will be under C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\Command and Conquer Red Alert II The file is called gamemd The file is 4,704 KBĤ Right click on it and copy. I have provided a patch download link below.ġ download the link and extract the file.Ģ Make a new empty folder on your desktop and place the extracted file in thereģ Locate yuri's game EXE file/ AKA application.
There is a patch however that will fix the issue.
For some reason, these newer OS types like 8-windows 10 don't like that sort thing and causes many rendering problems.
That is most noticeable when there is a lot going on with large numbers of personnel and machines, load screens and movie excerpts. Disable all compatibility options for ra2.exe, yuri.exe, game.exe and gamemd.exe (right click on the exe -> Properties -> Compatibility, click 'Change settings for all users') yeah cnc-ddraw and ts-ddraw should fix the issues. The problem is the game bounces back and forth from virtual to physical RAM for graphics pulls. Download ts-ddraw or cnc-ddraw and put the ddraw.dll file in your game directory.
