It Came From Red alert! is a mod that brings the original Red alert into Red alert 2: Yuri's Revenge.
It requires Red alert 2: Yuri's Revenge V1.001.
Beta Releases 1 and 2 do not require additional patches, Beta Release 2.5 requires Rock Patch 1.08SE for all features to work correctly, Beta Release 3 requires NPatch Special Edition #0019 or newer for all features to work correctly and Pre-release Candidate 1 does not require any additional patches.
ICFRA! has had over 86000 downloads across its various releases.

If you have difficulty uninstalling the mod then read this post.

The mod was started on 25th November 2006 and was first publicly announced on the 29th November 2006.  Beta R1 was released on the 1st of December 2006 followed by BR2 on the 2nd of January 2007. Like BR2 before it work has immediately began on BR3, but some serious errors found in BR2 lead to an BR2.5 bugfixing release on the 7th of January.  BR3 was released 14th October 2007.
Pre-Release Candidate 1 was released on 20th December 2012 so that the latest version of the mod from my computer was actually available to people.

The mod originally started as a coding-only mod so that I could play something resembling Red Alert with the newer interface features like right click scrolling and turned into something way beyond that.  It's been consistently popular since the first version was released with a steady trickle of views and downloads even to this day.
I recommend Red Alert (and Tiberian Dawn) fans check out OpenRA at Openra.res0l.net.

Thank you all for the kind comments the mod has received over the years and I'm sorry I never managed to finish it, especially as it got so close to being totally done.

After four beta releases (1, 2, 2.5 and 3) the number of reported bugs had flatlined, as such I was planning to release a final version called “Release Candidate 1". Unfortunately I had a PC issue which meant I lost all my installed programs, though I still had all my backed up data. There was a lot of awkward setting up involved in creating the mod and as my interest in modding C&C games was almost non-existent at that stage I kept putting off setting everything back up so only tiny bits of work got done.

It's now five years and a couple of PC reinstalls since the last release and I'm not really into modding anything any more - but I had this newer, unfinished version of ICFRA sitting around doing nothing which I thought was a bit silly. As such I've opted to rename all the "Release Candidate 1" references to "Pre-release Candidate 1" and release the mod as it is.

The download page is here on ModDB.  There is a change list in the description along with a copy of my to do list of things that were never completed.  One of the main changes is that the mod doesn't need any additional community patches any more, it'll run with vanilla Yuri's Revenge v1.001.

There won't be any further versions unless there's something gamebreaking in this one.

It's working for me. I wonder if it's related to me having problems with editing the mod profile.

Hey, I'm having trouble playing this. I have The First Decade, and I have Yuri's Revenge installed on Desura. I also have the patch. When I click "Launch" it says "Error loading mod". Any suggestions? I had this happen with the Mental Omega mod too.

I like this mod and would like to see some form of update, even just a post informing me of the progress of the next release. Between this mod and C&C: RA2: YR: Reloaded, I don't even really play the newer C&Cs... It's about the newest game I play on my PC anymore... Sooo... Would definitely appreciate hearing about a new release as soon as humanly possible.

This is pretty sweet for being a beta, but you should fix the V2 rocket animation though. Some features from Tiberian Dawn would be also great.

I'd recommand you to use LH_Mouse's NPatch Extended,which allows a number of new features.
See manual there

Very nice designs based on original C&C: Red Alert, that's all.
