I was going to mention Nyerguds, but I forgot. Oh well he did it anyhow.

Most of us don't use RA+ these days, we use the RA copy from redalert1.com. I know it has a few modifications to make it work better for new systems so it might not have this problem. Or maybe you could try running in Administrator mode if it still doesn't work. I've never really used the map editor.

Have you downloaded the expansions.zip? After downloading it, go into it and into the folder called expansions inside it and extract the files to your Red Alert 1 directory. If you do it right, it should overwrite some files. The next time you start up the game you should see two new options in the menu, "Counterstrike Missions" and "Aftermath Missions", and new units should be in your skirmish and multiplayer games as well.

Why hasn't the mod gotten a ModDB profile yet? When the next version comes out you should also announce it on the official forums and various fan-sites.

Err, you can get it to work with the RA-1 to C&C95.exe if you select it in the settings before it tries to start up the game. You don't have to rename it, but you still get the same problem with it going to the main menu. In fact, I think the exe from redalert1.com has been modded because if you try running CnCNet with RA1 off the disk there are no players in the lobby, but using the one from the website there are. Also the fact that it crashes if you select "Internet" in the multiplayer menu, even with Westwood Online installed.

Not having played the mod in a while, what exactly was done with the planes? Were they replaced with other units? And the A10 is used for the Airstrike power and not buildable right? Allo, I think you might have more luck asking about CnCNet's compatability with mods and the files at redalert1.com if you ask on the CnCNet IRC. I'm pretty sure that hifi made the files there, and he's usually present there it seems.

Maybe you could have the installer recognize the online only version of RA1 from http://redalert1.com/ and have it get its own listing for CnCNet as well. If you do, please have the installer create a shortcut for CnCNet as well so that people know they can play with the mod.

Is the mod "complete"? There haven't been updates for the last few months.
