Added Useful Add-ons to the first post, which include a set of scripts for Final Alert 2 that automate some common map modifications. The download includes the following scripts and a README file with instructions on how to install and use the scripts.

Yes. How to change your theme Open the CnCNet Client Make sure your version is on >= 6.2 Go to Options and select Display Under "Client Theme" select the theme you want. Okay, make it!

@CCCP84 Posting torrent downloads of C&C RA2 / YR is against the rules of CnCNet as the game is still copyrighted and not freeware.

v1.006 is specific to Red Alert 2 not Yuri's Revenge. I've also heard claims around the community that a certain update to RA2/YR caused the ore from generating properly. There's no way to know for sure without testing, you can let the game run in the background and see if the ore regenerates over time.

This seems to work differently on a per map basis. For example on the map Hidden Valley the ore generates just fine and a bit excessively sometimes, while I've noticed that on some other maps it doesn't grow as fast or barely at all.

Images for comparison.

Make a poll if it's so probable and I'll change it based on majority opinion.

@thehug0naut Try using the ddraw.dll posted in the first post, not sure if it will load in Wine, but worth a shot. Copy it into the Final Alert 2 directory. The 'metallic' texture you mentioned is the remap colour which changes based on player colour. It is displayed correctly in the map editor. The game and the map renderer just render it differently.

Updated map renderer download to v2.3.2 which fixes some bugs. Updated some screenshots in the map rendering guide.

An official update is on the way.

I thought each client is unique for that game, so you can change features on a game to game basis per community preference? I know this is your preferred method of organising information but not all players are going to register on github to voice their support for this feature. Maybe a forum or Discord poll would be a more effective method. I too find this manual download thing confusing and obnoxious in terms of user experience, you can't even see the map preview or any information about the map to help you make an informed decision wether to download or not. As it stands it just adds an unnecessary step to playing custom maps and further incentivies adding popular unofficial maps to the client side map pool.

Does anyone want this them updated for the latest client version?
