(Obsolete - Use the Launcher to get the latest build) Version 2.1.2 for RA:APB, enabling you to connect to a server and play the game. Included are all game data files, stock maps, and frontend/launcher. See details for changes. This client is also capable of hosting LAN games for small events. Note: Mandatory DirectX 9 dependencies will automatically install if required (as DX10/11 does not satisfy this requirement), along with MS VC++ components.

Red Alert: A Path Beyond version 2.1.2 as always contains several enhancements, bugfixes, and performance boosts over older versions. Performance and memory management is significantly improved over past versions.
Requirements
You do not need a pre-existing game installation. Do note that RA:APB will install required DirectX 9 components and .NET dependencies automatically. Please do not interrupt this process even if you feel you have them already, as this has caused confusion for some in the past.

How to Play
In order to play Red Alert: A Path Beyond, you should run the "Red Alert - A Path Beyond Launcher" tool from the Start Menu (or, if you didn't install Start Menu shortcuts, you should run apblauncher.exe in the main folder of the game). There, you can adjust game options and browse for servers, as well as view the manual and latest news about the game. The desktop icon, if you chose to install it, will also run the launcher.

Does this have the Updater? So I can't download it all over again when a new version came out?
Does anyone can create a torrent release? I get broken file downloaded..
I think it can add players.

Looks great however i have a serious problem. When I press Launcher, it simply says: APB3Launcher has stopped working. So far I reinstalled the game 3 times, restarted several times, installed the latest version of .NET and MS VS+, I have no idea what else to do =/. My friend managed to play it on his Windows 7 64bit machine, however I am not (Mine is 32 bit though). Any ideas?
Thanks
