Hey Ben.. can you help out another Ben?

I can't find my maps in YR at all. I can find and play them in RA2 but not in YR... anything special that needs to be done to get maps working in YR?

Thanks

BTW.. did you get your problem solved? Were the buildings set to a player instead of civilian?

It may simply be saved in the wrong format.
I have the same problem but reverse for me.
Go into your'e RA2 Folder. If you find youre map in MPR format then it's wrong for RA2 Yuri's Revenge. It needs to be in YRM format for Yuri's Revenge to read it.

On the note of changing the format...i am sorry i cannot help you there. You might be lucky and be able to change it's format via renaming the end of it to .YRM instead of .MPR.
No luck on my end as far as changing the format of map files.

Yes, for Red Alert 2 it is .mpr and for Yuri's Revenge it is .yrm. Also, make sure that you are putting them in the correct folder.

Hey guys, this has been asked before but I'm really cheesed off I can't find out what's doing it:

I have Vista and whenever I successfully load up FinalAlert, none of the tiles load! It behaves perfectly (I think) but in place of buildings are great black rectangles, and in place of units there are black sihlouettes - even the grass is black!! You can imagine what that looks like... and if it is the program vista uses to display these images then maybe a slightly reworked version of FinalAlert is necessary? maybe it's modern graphics cards?

Is there a way round this?... other than editing on an older PC!? Thanks guys

I have the same problem as him on vista. Its a vista thing and i have no idea how to fix it. Some guy said run it as administrator but idk how to do that...
