### Instructions
1. Download [cnc-ddraw.zip](https://github.com/CnCNet/cnc-ddraw/releases/latest/download/cnc-ddraw.zip) and extract it into your game folder
2. Disable all compatibility modes for all of the game executables
3. Start the game
Note: If you use cnc-ddraw with a game that got its own windowed mode built in then **make sure you disable the games own windowed mode** first. If you want to play in windowed mode then start the game once in fullscreen and then press Alt+Enter to enable the cnc-ddraw windowed mode (Or modify ddraw.ini without using Alt+Enter).
**If the game starts but it doesn't work perfectly** then open ddraw.ini and search for **Compatibility settings**, one of the settings will usually fix the problem.
Most common compatibility settings are the following 3:
- "noactivateapp=" - Set this to true if there are issues on Alt+Tab.
- "maxgameticks=" - Set this to 60 if the game is running too fast or if it's flickering. If it still doesn't work, try a lower value.
- "handlemouse=" - Set this to false if your cursor is invisible at some places in the game.
**If the game doesn't start at all or it's crashing**, [then please generate a debug log file and upload it.](https://github.com/CnCNet/cnc-ddraw/issues/44)
