Download links are at the bottom of the Summary section. Since each release contains 6 different download file, depending on the OS, we do not upload each separately to ModDB but simply link to the GitHub page.

That sounds like wrongly defined AutoTarget types, i'll fix it.

You can't. OpenRA's editor does not yet support map height properly. We make our maps in Final Sun/Alert 2 and then convert to OpenRA with the OpenRA Utility.

Yeah, seems like it. Fixed it for the next version. Thanks for reporting.

You need art and sound files from Red Alert 2 at the least to run this. See Github.com

That's something i already fixed, but didn't release a version with the fix iirc. The Content Manager isn't something you would expect the players to go thru in this mod, as player would likely have the Dune 2000 files already thru the OpenRA's D2k mod. So i hadn't noticed that the installer definitions still pointed to d2k and mtrsd2k before the release. I'll eventually update the mod when next OpenRA release/playtest drops, so that fix will be in then.

MCVs have not required SD in RV for ages. They are directly available after building War Factory/Naval Shipyard. Mobile Expansion Vehicles used to require Service Depot but that was changes a few updates ago to not require anything too.

There won't be any more playable subfactions. 5 per faction is already too much as is. We have Korea instead of Japan as in basegame.

Our current lore is that after RA1/WW2 Ukraine and Belarus gained independence and Baltics never was officially part of USSR (in the eyes of the West at least), but Transcaucasia and Central Asia didn't. That's the reason for the current flag setup. I intentionally tried to not include any that doesn't fit the lore, apart from a few easter egg ones.

OpenRA allows you to include custom artwork and code in the maps, and the blender model i used to make those flags are publicly available on PPM Site. If you want you can add such flags yourself, without them being included in RV.

Cope.

This was made way before Cameo. I intended to help them a bit when i found it but couldn't get around to it. I'm already busy with a lot of mods.

Allies same as basegame (USA, UK, France Germany, Korea), Soviets get Vietnam in addition (to USSR, Iraq, Cuba, Libya).

Yes, we cannot provide the original game's files like OpenRA itself or other OpenRA mods, because Red Alert 2 is not freeware, you need to either get original discs and let the content manager install the content or get the required files yourself and install them manually.
See Github.com

This is an OpenRA mod, not for the original RA2/YR, but it requires data from there. Tho the Content Manager can fetch the data from the Origin installation of RA2 and YR.

To your other question below, there are download links in the mod description above.

If you got to the content manager for the compat version looks like you are on the right track. You need to get the art from the original game to play this mod. You can refer to Github.com if you don't have the original discs, but have the needed files somewhere else.

What error are you getting for the normal macos installer?

Check Github.com

No, only extra playable country compared to original RA2 is Vietnam.

This mod doesn't have Prism Tank (well, it is Japanese unit if you can get your hand onto a Japanese flag), it is replaced by Comanche.

It is the flag of the 2nd Spanish Republic, i intendedly used it instead of the OTL flag used during that period, which would be this: (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/33/Flag_of_Spain_(1945–1977).svg/1024px-Flag_of_Spain_(1945–1977).svg.png)

Ukraine (and Belarus) in this world was liberated by the Allies after the end of Red Alert 1/WW2. It has the borders of Ukrainian SSR in 1936 OTL + Crimea (to further weaken Soviet presence in Black Sea, irl it was given to Ukraine 1 year later in 1954), so they don't control parts of Eastern Poland/Romania of the time.

Also no, while technically a Germanic flag, last flag isn't a real flag as i said, it is from a fictional/fantasy setting.

I wasn't aware that OpenRA didn't work on Vista, but sounds about right. Vista isn't an OS that are commonly used at the first place. Sorry, you'll need Win 7 at least.

You need to put the RA2 files i counted below (ra2.mix, ra2md.mix, language.mix and langmd.mix) in your OpenRA content folder (%appdata%/OpenRA/Content/ra2).

And yes you should need .Net Framework to play, you can easily find the download link by googling it.

I mean the manual installation of the content. You just need to copy files i counted there to place i also told in that comment.

I think my answers to the guest below should give you enough info on manual download.

USSR only occupied the Baltics for about 4 years during RA1 and Ukraine and Belarus gained independence after the war. But the other SSR's didn't.

That's not the folder you should be putting those, you should be putting them to your user content folder. If you are new to OpenRA, it should be `%appdata%/OpenRA/Content/ra2`. If you had OpenRA on that device for some time, it would be `MyDocuments/OpenRA/Content/ra2`.

You need ra2.mix, ra2md.mix, language.mix and langmd.mix as bare minimum to run this mod. As RA2 isn't freeware we don't provide downloading these from internet via the content manager unlike the base OpenRA mods. Ingame content manager should be able to get the files from original RA2 disc, TFV disc or Origin installation. Or you can manually put the files listed above to the Content folder.

Tesla Commando is available when you infiltrate a Soviet Battle Lab while ownining a Soviet Barracks, it is rare, since Soviets don't have Spies.

Yuri units (and Mechanic) are old units, instead of removing them we just disabled them, they are visible here because i had cheats enabled. Iron Trooper replaced Yuri Clone. Tesla Commando replaced Yuri Prime and Hijacker replaced Mechanic.

Our current plan is to do opposite of what WW did and make them available in campaign, but not skirmish/MP.
