In Topic: RED ALERT 3: Unable to Connect to C&C Online

02 July 2020 - 02:46 AM

I figured it out!  My stepson suggested that I look for the latest patch since I installed the game from my original DVD.

 

I found the 1.12 patch from Patches & Scrolls (https://www.patches-...tch/962/7/21763) and downloaded it and applied it.  This fixed EVERYTHING I noted above.  I was able to re-hook the C&C client to the newly patched executable and then everything worked.  The patch also removed the dreaded "3 minute black-screen wait" that I had to endure before reaching the menu.

 

Hopefully this will help someone else.
