RA2 Slow/Glitchy on Linux - Fix
Hi I'm trying Linux out for gaming and wanted to see if I could get RA2/YR working. Game launchers fine, menus are slow and the game is also laggy. Using an NVIDIA GTX 1060, permanently activated. Steam etc was set to use the dedicated graphics.

After trying lots of various fixes, making the dedicated graphics permantently on etc. Ive finally found a solution. The CNC NET ddrawl.dll files [https://github.com/CnCNet/ts-ddraw/releases] unzipped into the steam game instlal folder.

Then goto RA2 properties and add the following line to the STEAM LAUNCH OPTIONS:
WINEDLLOVERRIDES="ddraw.dll=n,b" %command%
