Command & Conquer - Red Alert - PC
Get Allied & Soviet buildings:
------------------------------
I ussally play 8 player PC games allot, and this morning i found a good trick. First
of all select 0 tanks in the skirmish menu, then keep on restarting a game until the
enemy's MCV is really close to it, then build a barracks and 5 engeneers, send them
all out to the main part of the base, if you did it quickly enough then the base
should be yours (it changed colour), then simply take another engeneer to repair
it and you will have allied & soviet buildings (except the war factory), but this
cheat will only work if you are the soviets and the enemy is the allies or the other
way around.
Hints:
------
* When the game starts press Ctrl, Alt, Del, O, R, E, Enter. Now Ore Truck
collect ores everywhere. This works only with allies.
* Get your injured tank to service depot. When you hear repairing noise get
tank away to service depot. Now get a same tank to service depot and it
will be repaired ten time faster.
Gametip:
--------
Build a Mine Layer and put in a group with something slow like Mammoth Tanks.
Then make them a group (Ctrl 1-9) and then a formation (f).
All the units will travel the speed of the Mine Layer.
Change aspects of the game:
---------------------------
Important:ALL WAYS CREATE A COPY OF RULES.INI BEFORE CHANGING AS IF YOU MAKE
A MISTAKE UNLESS YOU CAN FIND IT YOU WILL HAVE TO REINSTALL RED ALERT. To
change nearly all things in this game,open "rules.ini" (in the folder in
which you installed Red Alert)in notepad(or something simular).If you scroll
through this file,you will see that the is a unit name in brackets like
this:[unit name].After that it will have what wepon it uses, who can use
them, like: "owner=allies,sovet"(if both sovet and allies can buld this
unit),and also there will be all the different speeds of unit,cost and
other things. Before this section there are all the strenghs of the
different countries,and after the units there is all the wepons.
Gametip:
--------
If you want the units (including soldiers and tanks) to attack on ground,
just press CTRL and click on the location you want to attack.
Hint: When you are fighting against the enemy, bettter fight with them
on their nearest minerals so that they will get destroyed when bombs are
being poured! This way it will help you to reduce their minerals and they
will have no choice but to come nearer to you get the minerals and you can
easily attack them.
This Hint works for allieds (only):
-----------------------------------
When U're fighting near bank of a river or sea, and Ur enemy('s) are desturbing
U. use mine layer to deploy mines as close as posible to the water the will not
be able to deploy by sea again.(Do not put rocket luncher or destroyes near the
mines)
20 Tanks:
---------
Type in XPEINA518 when the game is loading and this will start you off with 20
medium tanks.
No more silo's needed:
----------------------
If your silo's start getting full, just build an expensive building. If the
building is finished, cancel the building.
Discover submarines:
--------------------
Select a gunboat or destroyer and move the cursor into the radarmap. If the
cursor turns into a attack cursor, then there is a submarine.
Fast building of vehicles:
--------------------------
You need more than one warfactories for this. If a vehicle is almost finished,
quickly change the primary building and start building the same type of vehicle.
Both vehicles will be finished at the same time.
Discover mines
--------------
If a building is finished and you get the placing - roster, go with this building
around your base. If a part of the roster turn red and there is no obstacle near,
then there is a mine.
Here's a tactic of Red Alert
----------------------------
TanyaShift
----------
Build a ChronoSphere, build a barracks but don't deploy it, hold the training
of Tanya before end, and build a MCV. When the ChronoShift is ready, Shift your
MCV near your enemy's base. Then deploy the barracks near it and make it your
primary building. Quickly click the Tanya you've holded and with that Tanya;
DEMOLISH your enemy's base!!!
Cruiser Speed Up
----------------
Play as the Allies and group the cruiser together with a transport and then put
them in formation. When they move together to the same spot, the cruiser will
have the same speed as the transport.
Free Men
--------
Build a missile silo. When the missile is ready, sell the silo and immeidately
launch the missile. If you were quick enough, the sale will have stopped and
some troops will come out of the silo.
Long Range Grenadiers
---------------------
In multiplayer or the regular game, play as the soviets. Next, build a grenadier
and have him force fire on the ground around him. Right before he throws it,
click anywhere on the map and the greade will SAIL over to that point.
Russian Tip
-----------
When playing as the Russians, build a Tech. Center. After you build it, sell
it. All the special characters you get from the Tech. Center will still be
available, and you get back all that wasted energy you used on the Te ch.
Center. You can now build more Tesla Coils to protect your base, and still
have Tanya and the Mammoth tank!
Sell Your Vehicles
------------------
To sell your vehicles, build a service depot and place a vehicle on it. Next
put the SELL cursor on it and when it turns green press the left mouse button.
This doesn't work with V2 Rocket Launchers.
Selling Tanks and Harvesters
----------------------------
If you want to sell your vehicles, like the ones you don't want or you are out
of money and need that last little bit then this is the code for you. Here is
what you do: build a Repair Facility and drive a tank or vehicle onto it and
while it is on the very edge put the sell button on it and it will sell. (The
sell icon will be green if you catch it at the right time.) My suggestion is
to have the sell button ready.
Soviet Playing Tip:
-------------------
When playing as the Soviets, when you have a Iron Curtain and a Missle Silo,
send a tank into the enemy base. When he is attacked, use the Iron Curtain
on him. When lots of enemys come around him, launch the atom bomb.
