Does not work, too! Is my Image not good? Which parameters should I use?

Hey,

Thanks all. I got this game from Best Buy (DVD version), but it wouldn't play because I had Alcohol installed, which I use for archiving.

I didn't need to uninstall Alcohol, but using CureRom 3.1, setting the sweaw file to Windows 2000 compatibility, and loading the image in D-Tools 403 (no emulation options, or RPMS only) instead of Alcohol (which was unloaded) resulted in the image eventually loading, though it took a minute.

With the original dvd, it still took longer than it should, 30 sec or so, but I'm willing to live with that.

EDIT: After more testing, I was able to reduce loading times to normal (ie, 5-10 secs) with both original dvd and image by first starting CureRom in Lite-Mode, with blacklisting enabled. Then, with the image already loaded, I selected all emulation options (for some reason, just RPMS or RPMS and Securom don't work). I just clicked the shortcut created by the original install. This worked every time I tried it. (BTW, Alcohol is still unloaded).

Hey everyone,

I can't get the game to work, using DT4, curerom1.3b.

I have tried every technique, and to no avail. I always get "original disk can not be authenticated". Does this mean I have a bad image file?

Also, I got the game to run, once, when I first installed it. I made a curerom profile, ran without mounting, and when I got "insert cd/dvd" i mounted, and hit retry, and it ran perfectliy. This only worked one time, and now it won't. Why is that?

Thanks for the help.

Restart your computer. The same thing happened to me at first.

I was almost through the whole thread and nothing worked.
Then i remembered one thing that often helps with Starforce games. I disabled my PATA controller in the control panel of Windows XP.
Then it was working.
CureROM Lite was running also.
I tried a second time but it does only work after some tries. Still have to find the optimal launch procedure.
DPM failed in Alcohol120, BTW.

i installed the DVD version
updated for 1.2
mounted the mini image linked on this thread a couple of pages back on DT 4.03
set DT emulation all
targetted AntiSecuRom to sweaw.exe (runs the game automaticly from there)
the game will load up in about 5 seconds

enjoy

Hi..

Im Using CURECDROM..
Seems To Work Nice And Beautifully.. :-) (TouchWood). LOL

[Slapshot99]

Yep, it's working. Create a good image with alcohol, use Daemon tools and the newest curerom 1.3.0b from cd media world. In alcohol i would recommend slow dpm and emulation rmps and safedisc. Worked well for me Good luck.

It is really shit - If I try to make an Image, the "List" of Protection goes away! If try to make an Image of another DVD I have not this "feature". I use Alcohol 120, latest version. Does it depend on my DVD Burner? It is a Toshiba DL with LS . . . .
I hate this game. No way to get the image working and the org DVD detects the "Virtual Drives" . . . So it seems I have to wait for a working Mini / Maxi Image - and the best: I can´t give it return - I have opened the box . . . I really love MediaMarkt


PS Maybe I am numb! How do you make an Image with SecureRom option with this DVD???? Everytime I put the DVD into my drive, this functions are blown away . . . Do I need another helper tool? By the way - I have the german DVD version with an extra bonus DVD. So please - what I am doing wrong?

[Muji-FightR]

You're right, there is no option to choose the copy protection (this is only available when copying CDs), well, then:
just create an image without choosing a protection, but be sure to have DPM data enabled (Messung der Datenposition).
Now you can just mount the image, sometimes (I never had to) you must use one of those crappy SR7 hide tools, but I guess you already know that

I run this game using curerom 1.3b but to all you who still can't run EAW with this program, try run curerom in LITE mode, than enable blacklist option - should works. I tried it on 2 difrent computers and it worked on both of them. I turned off my physical drive in computer managment panel but don't know if it is necessary. I made images from cd version.

Have fun, good game.

I cannot get it to work - tried really all!

It seems, there is a difference between the CD and the DVD version. The most f***ing shit is - on my Notebook I even cannot get the org. DVD to run - because it "finds" a Emulator Software and Virtual Drives. And I am not willing to uninstall other Software for it - so if there comes no Image or no CD within the next days, I will sell the crappy thing on ebay
If anybody has a working kind of Image, please send me a PM or link!
By the way - I found only the DVD Version here in german stores!

Thank you all!

[darthmarc]

im tired of seaching any site where i can fin the crack or the cd so if anyone can post it or tell me i wold be thankfull
and i already tried at crackspider and nothing happend

I dont believe in a working Mini Image - there are different ways to post it, perhaps at www.rapidshare.com or something like that.

I asked myself yesterday for a PM and I got a link to a full version download - that was not what I was looking for

Another link was to a newsgroup, which I cannot join

Because of the problems I have to get it even from the original DVD to run, I will try to bring this crappy tile back to the store . . . .
