These sprite-based games don't scale, so the larger the resolution, the more terrain you see, but also the smaller your tanks and buildings become in the game. I'd start with something like 1280x768 instead.
Though you're better off actually looking in your desktop's Screen Resolution settings what video modes are supported. Open ra2.ini, find the section, and adjust the values under it.The problem you have is indeed one for which you need to edit that ra2.ini fileīasically, that means that the resolution configured in Red Alert 2 is one your monitor doesn't support.
Press only asked about compatibility mode.At the bottom of the tab, under "Privilege level", enable the "Run this program as an administrator" checkbox.Enable the "Run this program in compatibility mode for" checkbox, and then select "XP Service Pack 3" in the dropdown menu under it.In the properties window that pops up, go to the "Compatibility" tab.Right-click the file, and click Properties.For both of these, go through the following steps: Find the application files called "game(.exe)" and "gamemd(.exe)".In there, you should find the game's folder. Open Windows E xplorer (the file browser, not Internet Explorer) and go to the Origin Games folder.The first thing in there should be the Origin install folder. If you don't know your Origin folder, go to the "Origin" menu in the Origin desktop application and choose "Application Settings".As for how to see these extensions, google for "show extensions" plus your Windows version, and you should be able to find out how to enable extensions pretty fast. The ini file is a text documents which contains the game's in-game settings. You read that wrong the compatibility mode is set on the exe file. ini ! I downloaded the game from origin and using windows 8 pro so i get the error " cannot set the video mode", i would appreciate any help! Can anyone give me a brief description of how to change compatibility mode? all forum say that i need to change something in the RA2.ini file but i dont have anything with.
