Having a weird issue now...

 

When I attempt to start a campaign, skirmish or multiplayer game, it attempts to load and gets about a 3rd of the way through before going back to menu.  No errors, no popups, no system messages, etc.

 

- I can run the base game just fine.  I can also use CNCNet on RA2 / YR with no issues.

1. I have a clean install folder with no CNCNet stuff in it off to the side for the mod / other mods later)

2. I am also using Win11 - Wondering if that could be the issue in general....)

 

MentalOmegaClient - Set to run admin / compat with xp and sp3

gamemd - Set to run admin / compat with xp and sp3 / 16 bit color

Syringe - Set to run admin / compat with xp and sp3

 

[EDIT 1]

 

- Attempted to run with other compat modes, still same issue
- Did restart computer to be safe after setting admin on files

 

[EDIT 2]

 

- Wiped out everything including uninstalling RA / YR and copied a template folder with original files

- Copied recommended files / copied mod files / pasted patch update for 3.3 / started up game.

- Tried different compat modes / admin settings on files / etc again... Same issue / symptoms

 

[EDIT 3]

 

- Wiped everything out, fresh install of everything game wise

- Tried compat modes / tried base 3.3 and updated through client

- Started up, same issue... Start game, loads 3rd of way, then closes out to menu.

Hey everyone, attempted to update to new patch.  Installed Red Alert 2 + YR, ran and played it a bit.  Cloned folder and pasted the client files and the patch from ModDB and ran the client. Attempted to update, and keep getting the following error: "The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process."

I have removed / added / cloned / etc.  Getting same error each time.  Rebooted, still getting same error.  Not really sure where to go from there.

 

[EDIT] - I ended up fixing the issue.  Followed all the steps again.  I guess I missed a file when copying stuff over.  Can get to main menu now, etc.
