Ran on Ubuntu (7.04) Linux on DOSBox 0.70 without a hitch. Type 'intro cdrom' in DOSBOX and read it all and figure out the exact mount command for your system. 'mount /media/cdrom -t cdrom -usecd 0 -ioctl' I just had to mount it with (Ubuntu 7.10): 'mount d /mnt -t cdrom -label GDI' I guess the lable is NOD on the 2nd CD. It only wanted a LABEL to the CD so the game is made happy - i.e. iso of my original CD and then made it work from dosbox. No problems with video, sound or networking. Works just fine, with a similar command for the NOD cds. I've made an ISO of my original CDs and am running 'imgmount d: ~/C&C/GDI.iso -t iso' to mount the CD. Installed perfectly and no sound or graphics issues. Taken from fdisk -l xx.img's offset STARTĭestdir is a directory mounted under DOSBOX init. V 0.74-2-3 works using RPi OS Buster (linux) ( 22:42)ĭOSBOX mounts ok, is writeable, but fails to run with this err: Run setup, then when done configure the soundcard as Upon running Dosbox, i run the imgmount as ff:

the version below from a cz site is a small playable file without videos.

Unlike the version below, this is a full cd installation, with videos and all. V 0.74-2-3 works using RPi OS Buster (linux) 2nd ver ( 06:13) When i start the game with DOSBox 0.61, Red Alert says that i have to put the CD in drive.Command & Conquer - Westwood Studios (1995) If Red Alert asks you for the CD (tells you it couldn't find SETUP.MIX) remember to mount the CD contents/the actual CD as a cdrom, e.g.: I get a DOS4GW general page fault when I try to start the game.īroken or am I just an idiot? :) ( 04:40) Have you given the game enough ram? It needs all 64mb. Game works 100%, I am running from ISOs using the 'imgmount d: ~/RedAlert/CD1.iso -t iso' command Finally resolved this by mounting it to the D: drive in DOSBox (didn't work with any other letter). I just spent a good while trying to get the new free release of the game from EA working, only to be stopped by the SETUP.MIX error above.

Next, you need to install the 1.08PE patch: 1: The installer do not like the dynamic core (it will hang at the end of the install), so it should be run with the normal core: Next, create a folder where you want to install Red Alert, and mount that and the ISO-file in DOSBox: Grab the RAR-file and unpack it with something like WinRAR or 7-Zip. EA released Red Alert as a free download. Works fine in 0.72 (with a little tweaking) ( 07:57)

2: The patch process will run really slow with core=normal and cycles=auto, so we speed it up by forcing the use of the dynamic core, and put it at full speed:Īlmost done now! All that is needed before we can run the game, is to reset to core and cycles values to auto: Works fine in 0.72 (with a little tweaking) - continued ( 07:58) And if you have problems with sound skipping increase the prebuffer option under mixer, that usually helps. Many thanks MiniMax, that tutorial works perfectly!Īlso, it was mentioned earlier by someone that one should use memsize=64, this will not work, the maximum option is memsize=63, because 1 MB is already allocated as lowmem, and total memory must not exceed 64 MB, so memsize=63 is the right option. Mounting with a label like tib suggested, still does not make it work. If I try and run red alert, it tells me 'please insert a red alert CD into the cd-rom drive'. After I mounted with 'mount d: /volumes/cd1 -t cdrom', install runs, but hangs at the end. Setup first complained that SETUP.MIX was missing, because I didn't mount with '-t cdrom'. Thanks for it -> 'mount d: /volumes/cd1 -t cdrom',

Make sure you have mounted cd1 if you want to play the Allies campaign and cd2 if you want to play the russian. Z:>imgmount d 'path-to-the-ISO.iso' -t iso Z:>mount c 'some folder to hold your ra files' (Downloads from other sources that are about 50Mb might be playable but will not include the videos, which really detracts from the experience.)

CnCNet are trying to push their own software that can take care of the installation for you, but they also offer the iso image files which is what you need.
