About this project
This pcrecomp project translates the original Win32 Red Alert 2 and Yuri’s Revenge binaries to native C. It reuses Westwood’s game code, distinct from the OpenRA engine reimplementation.

Documented support and independently tested compatibility are different. AllRecomps has not run these games.
Development progress
The maintainer reports menus, skirmishes and campaigns for both games and 30 scripted playtests per title. These remain attributed project results, not an AllRecomps playthrough.

Known limitations
The project is explicitly alpha. Its scripted tests and code-lifting statistics are not equivalent to a percentage of complete gameplay validation. Optional HD vehicles, widescreen and mods can differ from original presentation.

Getting started
Follow the official installer for your system and point it to the supported existing game installation. Each game is generated locally into its own runtime. F10 opens settings, F11/Alt+Enter change fullscreen and F12 cycles presentation filters.
