RA2 Game works, but wont launch from CnCNet client?

[Mariussss]

Hi, everything works perfectly for me, but all my 3 friends gets this crash\bug. When they or me start a game their screen just flashes and nothing happens, mine is the only one to load. We installed the same RA2\Yuri copy, tried reinstalling but same bug happens. We are not on LAN btw.

Hey there

 

Sorry to hear about this. Please could you all check that you do not have wsock32.dll in your game directory? If so remove, and re-test.

 

If the screen is black, be sure to enable ts-ddraw in the client options.
