@EA_Jimtern posted a remaster update on the official C&C Subreddit. This should hit some nostalgia notes...

Have you tried doing as the error message states? When creating a game, select "Advanced options" and pick a different tunnel manually.

There's a LAN button in the CnCNet client that should help you - https://cncnet.org/yuris-revenge

Hello, If you are experiencing slow or choppy gameplay whilst playing on CnCNet, there are a few steps you can take to troubleshoot the problem. Install the CnCNet client (Skip to step 3 if already installed) This will look for your existing game directory. Once installed run CnCNetYRLauncher.exe or the shortcut supplied. Click "Options" Select "Display" and under the render options, select a new renderer. Commonly, Automatic works best. Click Save, and launch Skirmish. Play a game with the AI. If the gameplay is fast then this renderer will likely be the best for you. If it hasn't worked, repeat from step 5 until you find a renderer that works best with your system. Failing the above, ensure your video drivers are up-to-date. You are running a suitable resolution the game can handle.

Hello, We need some additional information to help you out. In order for us to work out your issue, we will require your client.log file. Please attach it to your reply. Finding your client.log file: Navigate to your Red Alert 2 folder. This is where CnCNet is installed. Look for the folder called "Client" Inside this folder, there will be a file called client.log

Hello, To clarify you have yourself and a friend on your same internet network at home, and you're having trouble playing? Or is it you just can't play when making a game with anyone?

Hello, if you go to the bottom of this page - https://cncnet.org/red-alert#download and click "View all downloads", you can select Full game download.

Hello, try removing the "version" file found in your game directory and restarting the client.

Hello, sounds like that your antivirus is actually quarantining some client files. Are you able to check your Anti-virus vault? Files that might be in there would be called something like clientdx.exe

Hosting own tournament games just isn't in scope of the main client. If someone wanted to add this, they would need to put in a pull request to the source on GitHub. I did start some work towards the badges feature in August. If you remember the friends feature, this pull request added new functionality for multiple icons alongside a players name in the online list. This now allows us to place in badges when the logic around displaying them is ready. As for how the badges will magically appear next to peoples names and know it's the right person, the idea I was discussing with dkeeton back in August was to show badges without the need for logging into the main client. You would only ever need to login to the QM client once on your PC, and theoretically never need to open it again in order to show your badges in the main client.

There's an option in the client to disable those messages. I'd imagine that should be able to be turned off by default. Overall nice suggestions Prep, I would like to see most of those at some point, like everyone.

Not too sure, maybe a windows notification (like discord chat, skype etc) possibly cause it ?
