So anybody (there must be somebody who still plays this through internet) please tell me how!! I got this old game running in xp but this internet connection seems to be the hardest trick. We got this idea of playing this fantastic game after a long time and I have tried to solve all these problems a new technology has brought us.

The gamespy could be removed with ad-aware or spybot, right? :blink:ītw I guess that westwood chat is down. go to ra. and download the beta patch there that adds full compatability with windows and network play (through gamespy as well)Ĭould not find any beta patch there.

Right click the setup file and set windows 95 as the os in the compatability tab, worked for me :) If you have any suggestions as to what I should do, I would greatly appreciate it. I understand what you guys are doing to fix your problems (at least, I think I do), but I can't even get the directory file onto my computer because it won't allow me to install. I click either OK or X and it closes out and will not install. This version of Red Alert is a Windows 95 only product. However, everytime I try I get a Setup Warning message that reads as follows: I just recently got into a craze for a good RTS and C&C Generals runs too slow on my computer, so I tried to install RA. I used to have it on my Windows 95 Emachine, but ever since we got a Gateway with Windows XP I haven't even tried to install Red Alert.

I have finally decided to install Red Alert with the expansion pack (Aftermath) onto my computer. It thinks a bit, then it asks me to insert the Red Alert cd (which is inside) I've tried other sounddrivers in the install, but either it doesn't find it or I don't hear any sound.ĭosBox takes a long time and then I end up with a black screen. Music and movies work fine (a bit choppy the first few seconds but after that it runs smoothly)īut the voices of the units ingame are poor, very poor.įor example instead of 'yes sir' I hear 'ye ir' Now this also means the resolution is even worse than usual.īut I can live with that (no pain no game, eh?) Oddly enough the dos version works like a charm without even using dosbox or anything else. I can't run the windows 95 version, whenever I try I get the following erromessage: 'the procedure entry point SMapLS_IP_EBP_12 could not be located in the dynamic link library KERNE元2.DLL' So after setting up the compatibality and everything I unstall it Well I had some spare change and decided to finally buy a new copy of red alert (my other cd is broken)

Red alert 2 running but black screen
