13EDIT: check out my new guide for playing online and an even easier installation of GenLauncher using GenPatcher https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zkY1-a1r6AQ
In this video I install GenLauncher mod manager for Command & Conquer Generals: Zero Hour, and then play some 'Red Alert Redux' and 'Rise of the Reds' mods.
Red Alert Redux is a remake of the original Red Alert in Generals, currently under development in a Demo status, with the full release expected to have both single player campaigns and other content from Red Alert ported to Generals.
Rise of the Reds is an expansion for Zero Hour that adds two new armies, Russians and Europeans. This mod was originally released in 2008 and has a new update expected soon.
