Hi, I have clean installation of Red Alert 2 Yuri Revenge (it is CNC First Decade German version). I have Npatch Special edition 1.05.0022 installed. Red Alert 2 1.006. Yuri Revenge 1.001. Everything seems fine. I can launch Meantal Omega APYR -2.0psi.

However, when i click "ACTIVATE THE MOD", I got "error activating mod" window pops up.

Please help. Thanks in advance.

This is EVIL!!

I usually just play Yuri Revenge. But when I check Red Alert 2, I just found out that "overkill mod" is still there. I have uninstalled everything, but how come overkill mod is still there? I don't get it:(

I have checked my APYR2 directory and made sure there isn't any file like:

00000409.016
00000409.256
AI
ai.bak
Credits (txt)
ecache1
ecache2
ecache3
expand01
Overkill Read Me (txt)

Still, the load screen still show "fear overkill". And, while in game some new unit appears with "missing name"... I have searching google for hours to solve this but to no avail. Any help will be greatly appreaciated.

I tried. But it doesn't work. The "missing name" new unit still there.

I have tried RA2YR cleanup and even clean installed my Red Alert 2 Yuri Revenge... The "overkill mod" just stil there:( My concern here is, will this prevent Mental Omega from running? I got "error activating mod" while trying to play Mental Omega.

But the way, my RA2 Yuri Revenge is in German language. Will it be compatible to play Mental Omega?

Sorry for my impatience, after keep reinstalling and do registry clean, the "overkill mode" is finally gone!

But my problem still exist, I keep getting error activating mod...

Thank you:) Thank you:) Thank you:) Thank you:) Thank you:) Thank you:) Thank you:) Thank you:) Thank you:) Thank you:) Thank you:) Thank you:) Thank you:) Thank you:) Thank you:) Thank you:)

for such a wonderful mod.

I finally get it working after combing through every possible solution in google as well as in this forum (for whole night): I have tested skirmish shortly and I like the graphics very much:)))

I am running Windows 7 Professional 64 bit. A legitimate DVD of Command and Conquer Die Ersten 10 Jahre. I feel dumb when I found out that the solution is so dumb simple: In the compatibility mode (right click the exe, then properties) set all the 3 executables Ra2, Ra2md, and Mental Omega APYR 20psi to "windows xp service pack 3". Voila, it works, no more error activating mod...

Hope this will help other which has the same problem:D

ps: It is gonna be a tough day for me because I am going to cinema for Avenger 3D with my friends later and yet I didn't sleep for whole night. Anyway, I am so happy to be able to play Mental Omega:) Oh yeah, admins can close this thread already:)
