FunkyFr3sh Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 Did you install CnCNet? I added a fix to the installer that should take care of this problem You can get it here: http://cncnet.org/yuris-revenge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The installer will add the needed registry key to get the blowfish.dll working Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FunkyFr3sh Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 What windows do you have? Do you have a nvidia graphics card? Check if there is a file named ddraw.dll inside of your red alert 2 folder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FunkyFr3sh Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 Try to install different versions of the nvidia driver, a lot people had this problem before, i'm not sure if they have fixed in their latest versions so you might need to try some older ones too Edit: try version 337.88 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
