iite heres what i did..i installed the game fully...installed the patch...i downloaded unsafedisc...extracted it to the conquerors.exe file is...i took out the dplayer.dll file and just dragged it to the desktop...opened up unsafedisc...put the dpalyer.dll file back then applied the crack...this creates a test.exe file...i then renamed the test.exe file with the REAL aoe exe file..."age2_x1" or something like that..then rename the original age2_x1 file to whatever...and the game will run the test.exe file thinking it is the real file and i was able to play online just fine :)
hope this helps

you can read the readme on unsafedisc (i got the next to newest versoin by the way) if you are still confused....but how it works is...install the game....install the patch...download the next to newest version of unsafedisc....put it in the C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Age of Empires II\age2_x1 directory.....drag dplayerx.dll file to the desktop...double click on unsafedisc....replace dplayerx.dll into the same directory....now press "decrypt game" on unsafedisc...that will create a "testme.exe" file....right click on testme.exe and go to "rename"...type in "age2_x1" press enter....do the same thing to the REAL "age2_x1" file and rename it to anything you want jsut as long is it is not the same...now the game will see the "age2_x1" which is really the testme file and run that and everything will be fine....hope thats clear

what i really dont get is

what does that meaN?
----

replace dplayerx.dll into the same directory....now press "decrypt game" on unsafedisc..

and when you say choose like decrpty option.. the only things i see are like this thing that lets me open files.. and open and a close button.. and whenever i try to open a file it says error thingy
