The Robot storm and sudden strike mods don't work. I've ran them before on my old computer and it was fine, although a little blocky and very slow. Hoping with this new comp I could run mods more smoothly I ran the mod. I'll describe what happens. Easy, open the mod, click run/mod. Mod runs all the text changes and menu changes, such as picture graphic. Music doesn't change (since I've used these mods before I know what the music should sound like) and there are no new units, weapons, animations, etc. And I do have YR installed.

Just because this comp annoys the hell out of me, here are the specs of my comp:

Processor 7100 @ 1.80 Ghz
2 Gigs RAM
200 Gigs harddrive
Windows Vista
I can't ahold of the specific graphics card, but I assure you it's more than enough (since my old computer probably released in 1998-2000)

The only thing I can guess is that Vista is retarded (and it is whether or not I'm using CnC) and that it doesn't run the mod correctly. Any help/ tips/ criticisms appreciated.

A mod doesn't change anything executable-related so it cannot be the fault of your system.
If it was the system, YR wouldn't even run without mods.

It all sounds like you (or the mod launcher because of Vista?) simply didn't install the mod correctly.
Be sure all the mod files are in the YR dir.
To do so, open it, hit "Run" in the mod launcher, use ALT+TAB to navigate to the YR dir again and check whether the files got installed properly.

If not, there's your problem.
And yes, could be Vista, I never used it, but I think it's possible.

I know why I dislike mod launchers...

Not being able to see new units and stuff is the mod's way of saying "UPGRADE TO YURI 1.001 BEFORE TOUCHING ME".

it is not your vista for i have vista also... it may be more like mods are installed incorrectly... wouldnt hurt to do the compadibility tab options for the mod in properties and uncheck the box then go to secruity and place full control for everyone.
