Desert rats vs Afrika Korps Fixed EXE

[BarryB]

Err... solved the menu problem, I read the Readme.txt

Seems you need to reboot the computer (Which I did) or manually copy a font file over to the fonts folder:

1/ Why is there an empty menu when I launch the game?
-----------------------------------------------------
The game requires a reboot. Please reboot your system and try again.
IF THE PROBLEM PERSISTS :
you'll have to manually install the game font into your system font folder.
Take the file called "AgencyB.TTF" that is located in the game folder
(usually "C:\Program Files\Monte Cristo\DR vs AK") and copy it into the
system's font folder, (usually C:\WINDOWS\Fonts or C:\WINNT\Fonts)

Must have been me trying to run the game without rebooting and using the crack first that screwed it up as replacing the starforce EXE and rebooting didn't solve it, so had to do the manual copy thingy as per readme!

I applied the missing files again and the FLT Crackfix and game works fine now, menu text is now visible. I also applied the ATI Shadow Fix patch too, just to be safe!

Hey Mate

it works for me

i didnt have to move the font file or anything it just works now.


thanks mate i owe you big time.

i strongly recommend you put that on the crack sites gcw and ***

i'd do it but i think you deserve the credit on this one mate.

thanks again



oh and also i didnt have to restart either


with starforce you forced to restart the comp as it needs to restart to install the starforce drivers which causes all my blood to go to my face and nearly have an anorism.

anyways with a crack you dont have to restart and from what i've seen it only installs starforce when you click on the games exe file for the first time.

so when you use a crack starforce is completely removed so it usually wont even install starforce drivers on your system.
