Issues fixed[edit]
Game does not start (Origin)[edit]
Disable Origin In Game[citation needed]
|
'player already have the same serial' error[edit]
- This issue may occur when using the Command & Conquer Ultimate Collection version from Origin.
Add missing registry value[citation needed]
|
'***FATAL*** String Manager Failed to Initialize Properly' error[edit]
Setting up compatibility settings[citation needed]
Notes
|
Black screen with switchable graphics[edit]
This occurs when the game engine tries to render in VRAM.
I'm only 17, but of course I am concerned. How to retrieve lost serial key for mount and blade through manual activation code.
Disable the Compatibility Mode of the game's RA.exe
executable then copy the files from the .zip at https://github.com/CnCNet/cnc-ddraw/releases/latest to your Red Alert II installation folder, replacing those present. This also allows higher and wide-screen resolutions than the Agrit fix below.
Another fix is to download Aqrit's ddwrapper and extract the ddraw.dll
and aqrit.cfg
files into the RA2 folder, where ra2.ini
lies. Next, ensure that only these settings are set to '1' in aqrit.cfg
:
Alternatively, simply download and extract the contents of this preconfigured fix into the RA2 folder. Also, consider using the performance fix as well.
Command And Conquer Generals Serial Key Already In Use Original
Game is purple/green colored and displays only on the other half of the screen[edit]
This happens sometimes on newer versions of Windows (7, 8, 8.1 and 10). To fix this, download Aqrit's ddwrapper and extract the ddraw.dll
and aqrit.cfg
files into the RA2 folder, where ra2.ini
lies.
Some Windows elements flicker from behind the game[edit]
This happens if you have downloaded Aqrit's ddwrapper and extracted the ddraw.dll
and aqrit.cfg
files into the RA2 folder and have set the ForceDirectDrawEmulation
to '1'. To fix this set ForceDirectDrawEmulation
to '0':

Lag/low FPS[edit]
Modify the RA2.ini file[citation needed]
Notes

Use Command and Conquer Graphics Patcher[6] |
Game runs too fast[edit]
- Before using this fix, make sure the in-game 'Game Speed' slider is adjusted properly
Use the -SPEEDCONTROL command line argument[7]
