See, this is why server preservation is important.
This game's online features are no longer supported.
While this game's online features were once accessible, they are no longer officially supported and online-exclusive features may be documented as now-unseen content.
Hmmm...
To do:
Make the sound effects a sub-page.

Command & Conquer: Red Alert 2 is, quite obviously, the sequel to Red Alert and continues the timeline in which the Allies win. The Soviet Union has secretly recovered its army and takes the United States by surprise by invading it from all directions.

Hmmm...
To do:
• World Domination Tour resources are now unused with the service being unavailable.

https://www.modenc.renegadeprojects.com/Red_Alert_2 includes exe switches and a debug mode.
https://www.modenc.renegadeprojects.com/Yuri%27s_Revenge includes exe switches.

• eva.ini contains cut tutorials and map mechanics.

Main Menu Commands

The following codes can be typed on the main menu to unlock different effects, a beep will happen when correctly entered.

HIRES - Allows selecting resolutions up to 4096x4096 in the options menu.

THETEAM - Loads a custom tmcj4f.ini file after loading rules.ini, allowing custom rules to be used in skirmish mode. Stands for "Totally Cool Mission Just 4 Fun".

TOGGLE - From Tiberian Sun, obsolete. "Allowing or disallowing switch between video modes".

PENGO - From Tiberian Sun, obsolete. "Replaces Visceroid graphics with placeholder images".

Unused Features

  • Located in ra2.mix are some leftover graphics data from older Command & Conquer games, and unused graphics made for early versions of Red Alert 2. Several graphics from Command & Conquer, Red Alert and Tiberian Sun can be found in the data. These use color palettes from the earlier games which weren't left in Red Alert 2's files, and thus can only be properly seen using palettes extracted from the earlier games.
  • Setting CanDetonateTimeBomb to 'yes' in Rules.ini allows double clicking on an enemy with an Ivan bomb on them to instantly detonate it, as the comment says: "Turn this on to restore double click functionality on enemy bombs (actually easier than pulling out the Event)".
RA2-Bombcurs.png
Setting CanDetonateDeathBomb to 'yes' in Rules.ini does nothing, as the comment says:

"and this one controls double clicking bombs on own guys; neither of these will give double click back to Ivan himself // obsolete now that deathbombs cut".

It's possible the image to the right was used for the death bomb cursor, the time bomb cursor uses the SEAL C4 cursor.
  • Gap generators have an "ExtraPower" value of -9000, this means when gap generators have 9000 spare power available they can be deployed to use the SuperGapRadiusInCells as their range instead of the base GapRadiusInCells. However, this seems to have been just a quick way to disable the feature, as both radii are 10. Changing SuperGapRadius allows a functional version of the mechanic.
  • Setting InitialVeteran to 'yes' allows all starting units to be elites, which is otherwise unavailable as an option in skirmish.
  • Setting MutateExplosion to 'no' will turn the genetic mutator weapon from a 6x6 superweapon to a 3x3.
  • AImd.ini has scripts for AI taskforces to create two Psi-Commandos, however the final AITriggerTypes for them to create them isn't defined. It also has scripts to allow brutal AI to build two chrono-commandos to attack once their enemy has an allied tech center (likely a mistake, and is meant to be when they own a tech center), however, they cannot do this because chrono-commandos require stolen allied tech, and the script for spies to enter tech centers isn't set to be used on any difficulty.
  • UpgradeVeteranSound and UpgradeEliteSound allow different sounds to be played when a unit is promoted, but both use the same sound.
  • CreateInfantrySound, CreateAircraftSound, and CreateUnitSound would play a sound when a unit of that type is created, but it goes unused.

rules.ini

Red Alert 2 was developed on top of the Tiberian Sun game and engine, so a lot of graphics and programming code from the earlier game persists within Red Alert 2.

Side and Country Data

The Allies and Soviets are referred to by the sides system as "GDI" and "Nod" - the two main factions from Tiberian Sun. Unused country data also exists for "GDI" and "Nod" countries (using the gdii.pcx and nodi.pcx files shown below), either to just test the system, or possibly to later be converted into vanilla Allied and Soviet countries.

Some of the country names were also different to those employed in the final game.

Country name in final game Country name in rules.ini
America
Britain Great Britain
France
Germany
Korea Asian Alliance
Russia
Iraq Arab Union
Libya African Empire
Cuba Latin Confederation

Tiberium

Tiberium was the resource collected in Tiberian Sun, and came in two varieties - green and blue. These have been replaced by the more conventional ore and gems in Red Alert 2, in keeping with the original Red Alert. However, being built on the Tiberian Sun engine, most references to ore in rules.ini still mention "Tiberium", and control variables for the spread of ore and mining behaviour still have tag names such as "TiberiumFarScan".

In addition, ore is still referred to in code by the name of the standard green variant of Tiberium - Riparius. Gems have taken on the name of the rarer blue variant - Vinifera. Two unused Tiberium types that were present in the code of Tiberian Sun - Cruentus and Aboreus - are still present in Red Alert 2's code.

Super Weapons

Tiberian Sun's super weapon code is still contained within rules.ini, though commented out for the most part. The Nod Multi Missile super weapon was adapted into the Soviet Nuclear Missile, and still bears the old name of MultiSpecial. The only Tiberian Sun super weapon not commented out in the code is the GDI Ion Cannon - IonCannonSpecial. Whether this was just an oversight or whether it was actually used for something is uncertain.

Re-enabling these super weapons is not possible without the use of modding extensions such as Ares, as although they remain in the INIs, much of their internal engine code has been purged.

Terrain

Code still remains in the rules.ini, art.ini, and individual theater ini files for ice, tunnels and railways - all of which were present in Tiberian Sun. Without external enhancements like the Terrain Expansion, it is not possible to properly re-enable them.

Unused Music

Elementary, my dear Cactus.
This needs some investigation.
Discuss ideas and findings on the talk page.
Specifically: The tracks Probing, Ready the Army, and C&C in the House can apparently be found on the disc, but I can't locate them in The First Decade's version.

Map select music from Tiberian Sun

RA2 Intro Music

Unused Used

Found lost in local.mix file, this music track can be found on the CD as background music called HM2. There are some differences like a different size and remixing smaller, besides being only mono track and 'low sound'.

Loading Screen music
While these tracks play in game, the full length cannot be heard on modern systems unless the game crashes while loading.

Obscured Graphics

Crazy Ivan and the terrorist both have death graphics that are obscured by their death explosions.

Unseen Models

C&C-YR-SiegeChopper.png

The deployed siege chopper is fully modeled but is normally only seen facing south east.

Anti-Piracy

On pirated copies, the player's base, as well as the player's units, would explode after 30 seconds.

This anti-piracy measure sometimes results in a false positive if you install the game, expansion and patch and play one game. Relaunching the game allows normal play.

Game.exe

RA2-unused dialogo box.png

An unused dialog box found in the main executable.

Unused Gametypes

mpmodes.ini makes mention of a "Siege" mode that was "Removed until UI does or does not support game type.". MPsiege.ini also describes it as "Siege mode designates one player as the Defender. The Defender begins at the first starting point (map waypoint) with a conyard. The other players are allied as the Attackers. The Attacking players begin at the other starting points with an MCV".

More information from ModEnc:

The [Siege] entry is obsolete, it has not been substantiated whether or not this game mode can be made to work, although it can only be used on LAN or Internet games. In this mode, one player is designated the 'Defender' and starts at the first map waypoint with a Construction Yard. The other players are allocated as being 'Attackers' and start at the remaining waypoints with MCVs as usual. The defender cannot ally with any other player (although Attackers can, and all Attackers begin the game allied and unable to change alliances). The idea is for the Attackers to defeat the Defender or vice versa. You can enable this mode by deleting the comments ( ; ) and giving the mode a new number. Note also the spelling mistake which means the rulesOverride INI file does not get read - it states MPSeige.INI when it should in fact be MPSiege.INI which is in the game files. If you enable this mode, you must also add several string entries to the .CSF files to support it;-

MP:AttackerTeam	should contain a string such as 'Attacker'

MP:DefenderTeam	should contain a string such as 'Defender'

MP:IllegalTeam		should contain a string such as 'That team is not allowed!'

MP:NoAttackers	should contain a string such as 'No Attackers?'

MP:NoDefender		should contain a string such as 'No Defender?'

MP:OnlyOneBesieged	should contain a string such as 'Not enough attackers!'

Unused Maps

SOV09T.map

Full map. (click for full res)

The hash in the mix archive (439FEA47) matches the name SOV09T.MAP, which matches the filename of the final Soviet 9 mission "The Fox and the Hound". The mission's scripts are apparently outdated and broken. The actual mission 9's filename is SOV09U.MAP, with the "U" suffic matching the general system of adding the theater indicator to the end of the mission file. The unused map matches this too; as the "T" indicates, it uses the "Temperate" theater.

E31.map

RA2-SCRN0000.png

Full map as seen in Final Alert 2. (click for full res)

A test map used to show the full power of Red Alert 2, It was probably developed exclusively to be played at the E3 2000. This map appears in several old screenshots, including the cover of the game. You start with the Soviet team, but can also control the Allies even as enemies. The map does not have any goal.

E32.map

RA2-Map2.png
Full map as seen in Tiberian Sun. (click for full res)

E32.map uses snow graphics and is a multiplayer map that is incomplete and missing graphics, most notably the water graphics. There is a psychic sensor on the map to Allied team. The map file is too corrupted to play, and can only be viewed in a map editor. It is possible to play it normally in Tiberian Sun with RA2 structures missing.

Oddities

  • The Patriot Missile has the NA prefix, signifying that it was once for the Soviets, as in Red Alert 1. Pre-release images also shows the Allies using the flak cannons, strengthening this.
  • The prism tank's internal name is SREF, standing for its old name of "Solar Refractor".
  • The sea scorpion's internal name is HRD, short for its old name of hydrofoil.
  • The SEAL's internal name is GHOST.
  • IFVMode 12 gives the IFV a prism weapon, which does 300 damage compared to 120 of the prism tank. Its only available by putting a cow, alligator, polar bear, monkey, camal, or the President in the IFV. However in the only level you control cows you don't have access to IFVs. And animals take up two slots in transports, meaning the only level where you get access to monkeys they don't fit in the IFV. This means the only potential unit to give this weapon is the President, who you can't control in 'Hail to the Chief', nor can you put mind controlled units in IFVs in the moment you control him in 'Fox and the Hound'.

Easter Eggs

Allies 4 - Last Chance

  • Entering the McBurger Kong to the north spawns 5 monkeys for the player to use, named "MonkeyForce5".

Allies 5 - Dark Night

  • A treeline at the top left writes the letters "ACC".

Allies 10 - Mirage

  • An easter egg seems to be cut.
    • Two polar bears would be chasing a woman at the northwest of the map. They would growl and quickly give up as she runs paniced to the north west village. She gets in the orange car, follows the road and drives off the map, leaving behind six crates with 1500 each for 9000 credits total on the road.

Allies 12 - Chrono Storm

  • Trees at the topleft display the letters "ACC", placing a unit in them displays the message "TSC&ACC" and "11/21/98".

Soviet 1 - Red Dawn

  • Trees at the lower right display the letters "ACC", placing a unit in them displays the message "TSC&ACC" and "11/21/98".

Soviet 11 - Red Revolution

  • Trees at the lower right display the letters "ACC", placing a unit in them displays the message "TSC&ACC" and "11/21/98".

YR Allies 4 - Tomb Raided

  • Going near the oasis at the north west will spawn a sniper and IFV.
  • Having units on the three marked spots under the oasis will spawn some t-rexes under player control. A chrono-legionaire can likely trigger this by teleporting to all three points.

YR Soviet 2 - Deja Vu

  • Terrain around the starting area displays the letters "KBO" and "AEO".
C&C-YR-DejaVu.png

YR Soviet 4 - Romanov On The Run

  • Placing a unit on a specific spot outside the north west base will spawn a bunch of polar bears that spell out the word "HI".
