This is not a problem of the mod, but of original RA2YR. Get DDRAW, make your settings and you can play at any resolution.

Reposting here for visibility.

I have a problem. Two, actually. The first is that I can't seem to set a custom resolution for gameplay (1920 x 1080 in my case), even if I have ddraw.ini and related files. The second is I can't set campaign game speed, even if I put the -speedcontrol command line in the shortcut. It doesn't show up. I don't have this problem with any other mod. Please help. I've already tried a few solutions and they did not work.

EDIT: Resolution problem solved. Now all that's left is the -speedcontrol issue.

Speed works fine set at the 5 for skirmishes on Windows 10+. May seem a little slower for campaign. If you want to use parameters like -speedcontrol. add that inside the .bat file (as parameter RA2MD.exe) or is there a different launcher that you use ?

I kind of don't get it. Do you mean make RA2MD.exe a shortcut and add -speedcontrol there? Everything I've read and watched has said put it on a gamemd.exe shortcut, not RA2MD.exe. Though for the New Horizons mod, which also uses a .bat to launch, I put it -speedcontrol in those parameters and it worked. Or how am I supposed to do it? Step-by-step instructions, please. I use the Origin version of Yuri's Revenge. Please get back to me ASAP.

EDIT: Figured out what you meant. It was extremely simple. Thanks for the help.

Does the latest version fix the annoying perma-radfield left by a destroyed Yuri Mini-Nuclear Reactor? I've noticed this bug during my RA2YR Camp runs of both Soviets and Allies and I dunno if this issue is addressed yet or not. ^^;

It's not permanent. It has been lowered in duration compared to previous versions, but if you want to make a Nuke Reactor, you take the risk, just like when you do it with the Soviets. And it exploding should not pose much trouble for your miners either because in most cases you will end up clearing the nearest ore field before you make your 1st SNR.

Ah, I see. You speak the truth. I just thought it was permanent, but turns out that I was wrong, apologies for that mistake... ^^;

It is unusually long though, like REALLY long-lasting, so lightly-armored units and infantry especially will be melted in seconds, if not immediately, whereas heavily-armored units such as Armageddon Tanks (love those btw, REALLY...! <3) can safely endure it. :>

A few units are rad-immune and each faction has them, including at least 1 MBT. And in regard to very powerful units, you can defeat them quite easy with the proper counter. For some, a few units may seem OP, but in the overall context they are not. And each counter has an anti-counter so in limited resources scenarios you may end up remembering chess.
