Then, open the configuration file 'aqrit.cfg' in Notepad, change the 'ForceDirectDrawEmulation' option to 1, save the file, and the game should work. To install, download the zip file and extract 'ddraw.dll' and 'aqrit.cfg' into your game folder. Not sure if that went beyond graphical issues, though. I tried to repair the game on Origin, but no success. If you try to open it again it shows only a black screen. It shows the screen for less than a minute, then it switch the screen into the background. The graphics system patch DDWrapper might work too it is known to solve issues with the game. Jacobofski Novice If i try to run Yuri's Revenge on Windows 11 everything is fine until the game starts in it graphics mode. ago This topic and this comment specifically have finally fixed this game for me. The best thing you can do is fiddle around with the compatibility mode on the game's exe file and see what makes it run with the most stability. There is a black screen fix all you have to do is copy to the games directory This video I found helpful before Or if it's not from origin right click the icon and press open file location then copy files there RealMaintenance 4 yr. Not since Generals 2 got canned, in 2013.Īnyway, as for your problem. Not to mention, not a single one of the original Westwood developers still works for EA, so even if they still have that source code, a developer would be looking at a completely unfamiliar project with no idea of where to start.Īnd then we're not even going into the fact there are no developers employed at EA for C&C anymore. Really? Why do you think bugs in older games are easier to solve than those in more recent games? EA might not even have the source code of these older games anymore. For anyone elso who reads this, in the top left corner of origin is the word 'origin'. It should be easy to fix for an ancient game like Red Alert 2 right? Thanks a lot This solved my problems with Red Alert 2 and and I had the same problem with Generals which this also solved.
