Can not get to CnCNet for Red Alert.

[Guest pyjimbo]

When I launch the CnCNet application it takes me to the Red Alert menu screen, not the CnCNet screen. There is no button for CnCNet, and when I hit Internet Game it tells me I need Westwood Chat software. From what I have read the Westwood Chat software is defunct. When I launch CCGOLD CnCNet Application I get taken straight to the CnCNet interface, is this how Red Alert is supposed to be?

CnCNet uses network, not internet. And if you are using an RA version that treies to launch WChat you probably don't use the version of RA other people use (3.03).

 

Get this http://cnc-comm.com/community/index.php?topic=1918.0 and use the patch option. It will update your RA to the latest version with the latest fixes.

The update worked. Went online and got mauled by like 40 tanks. XD

 

Lost my save game though, no big deal as I was not far into the game.

You can get the saved games for 3.03 at http://funkyfr3sh.cncnet.org/ or this link http://funkyfr3sh.cncnet.org/update/files/svwra303.zip Drop the save games into your Red Alert Folder. If you don't know were your Red Alert folder is, right click on the Red Alert on your desktop and than on proptries. The Target and Start In will tell you were the folder is located.
