Astro wrote ======================================================= lolz... as I understand it, these are the options: *If you have the original disc, try create your own no-cd patch with gamejackal. *If you dont have the original disc, you need to mount the image(.iso) in a virtual drive - usually through alcohol or daemon tools(4) >>you then use cureROM, specifying where your image is and where it is installed. PLEASE DONT TRY RUN THE GAME BEFORE YOU ACTUALLY INSTALL IT !!!! therefore - to install. try unzipping the .iso(eg. with winrar), or burn it onto a disc using proggies such as alcohol or clonecd and install off there(nb. serial required) OR You can wait a ?week or so til Gimps or CORE mash it up and put out a fix for the current 1.2 patch -astro ============================================== I did all as u said but a msg comes up and says: 'Original disc cant be found or authenticated' I use the DVD version of it, maybe not the same :s Any idea?
so... i dont have to do all that u said before the last message?? i search the web gamecopyworls and doesnt exsist...please give the link...thanks
hi, i download the patch but doest work... i download it from another page that is not www.gamecopyworld.com i think its the same page cause the link is different but the page is equal... i think i will buy it at $5 not original...THIS IS IMPOSIBLE TO RUN!
"Alright I got the files to work. 1'st Download curerom and the newest version of alcohol 120% 2'nd start up curerom and click Options>Curerom settings click third party virtual cd drive. Click Alcohol 120% and make sure "Do not display Alcohol 120% in my virtual cd/dvd rom list" is not checked. Click apply and close. 3'rd Create a CureRom profile for the application find sweaw.exe Click Next. Select Alcohol 120% as the image mounting software, find your disk 1 cd image for "Backup image", leave everything default and click next. Select your name for the shortcut and your done, now click on the shortcut to launch the game. Worked for me hope it helps." I tried this solution from Raidennrl. It worked up until i ran the shortcut, where i encountered error : Original disc could not be found or authenticated..... I know it is not my Video card, im running an ATI Radeon 9600+ Pro. Please help.
i seem to be missing a .dll file...and was wondering if someone who had the game with everything and it is working if they can give it to me. i get the error message.. "This application failed to start because d3dx9_27.dll was not found." can someone please put it up here for me. Also where can i find curerom lite?
Curerom lite comes with the actual Curerom program. Personaly whenever I went to turn cureromlite off it crashed my computer. Not sure why, but it killed all my processes when I disabled the program. As for using my old method, YES it does work the mejority of the time but just used the cracked .EXE game file found at gamecopyworld AS FOR UR "Original disk cannot be found or authenticated" that has to do with the image, absolutely nothing to do with you video card. You probably recieved a half'assed cd image done with blindwrite. -Cheers.
Sorry for bumping an old thread, but I've had Empire at War sitting on my computer practically mocking me for about a month because I could never get it to start up. In a vain effort, I went here, used this tactic above, and now it works great! Thanks!
