Windows 10, First Decade version. Tried different renderers, force updating, firewall permissions, administrator etc. CnCNet client updated just fine a few months ago and now it doesn't

I dont understand why offline skirmish works but the campaign doesn't

probably because of rendering.
the FAQ gerhale suggests you to look into should explain that the ts-ddraw is suitable for the campaign as well as windowed mode on the client, often deemed as a recommendation by others around here.

#

if you change that on our multiplayer client's settings, it should reflect on the YR campaign, as it alters their .ini file (ra2md.ini)

I tried that already, YR just closes immediately

#

What seems to work is disabling Win98 compatibility on gamemd.exe, until opening the YR client reverts it back

#

I just want the YR campaign button to work in the client lol

all it does is launch ra2md.exe or whatever's tied to the EA app, I believe. ruuEh

You can launch these two files manually from your game directory. This will launch the campaign if the cncnet client is not doing this for you.

Yes I know, my question was why doesn't it work on the client though
