Yuri's Revenge (YR) is the 2001 add-on to Westwood's Red Alert 2. It added a third side (the followers of Yuri), several new units for the existing sides, and two new single player campaigns.

At this point in time, there are comparatively few mods left for the original game, most new mods are for Yuri's Revenge.
Most files in YR that were present in RA2 as well had the suffix "md" added (Mission Disk), e.g. while RA2 had the rules.ini as its main control file, YR has the rulesmd.ini. In the case of INI files, these are complete replacements, not just overrides to the original ones.

EXE Switches

These work in addition to the RA2 ones, with the new EXE being ra2md.exe.

-DLINK1 
Unknown but related to Network options
-SPEEDCONTROL 
Allows changing game speed in campaign mode (when you pause the game, the Game Speed slider in Game Controls window will be visible). Normally it is only possible for non-campaign modes.

RockPatch

RockPatch introduces the following, additional exe switches:

-LOG 
Makes YR output a logfile
-OUTMISSINGSTRS 
Makes YR output a file listing all the missing CSF strings in your mod.
