Command and Conquer First Decade help

[thegrandmaster]

Hey guys, I've installed FD on my MBP in my XP partition, but I keep getting told I'm not connected to the internet by RA2 and Yuri and I'm getting pretty annoyed since online play is one of the few reasons I installed bootcamp. They are unblocked by the Windows firewall and there is no other antivirus installed.

Please help!

From what I remember, online play is a no go for The First Decade. EA was supposed to be working on a patch to enable it, but I don't believe they've released it. You're outta luck, man.

I effectively have a useless copy of this compilation as well...

Well that sucks beyond belief.

Its strange though, that article says nothing about RA2 not working, I have a friend with 1st Decade and he can play RA2 online fine. I've tried accessing the the server for mulitplayer from 2 different networks, so I'm confused and very annoyed, brilliant!
