Appears, FEAR 1.02 patch breaks all the existing ways of playing with your backup disc, tried anti-blaxx, SR7.Stop, and the FEAR minidisc.

A-Ray says it's SecuROM 7.00.00.0149 still
Joy :(, I guess I can take solace in that I already beat it :)

Pirates can reinstall and use the 1.0 crack. Unforteanutley, some are too stupid to do even that, so they will just come here to whine about when the next crack is coming out.

Due to all kinds of problems with the securom of this game, the developers should really release a securom-fixed EXE.

TippeX

01-11-2005, 04:50

what securom problems? works fine here

Muyfa666

01-11-2005, 07:06

Yea? Good for you. A couple of 1000s of ppl are not as successful as you are running the game... Check out the VU-forums if you don't believe me. Problems with this game isn't pirate-issues by default.

DABhand

01-11-2005, 08:02

And how many of those 1000's are pirates?

Muyfa666

01-11-2005, 09:55

How the **** should I know? Fact: even ppl with a LEGITIMATE purchased version of F.E.A.R have problems with it. That's how it is.

TippeX

01-11-2005, 10:08

seems to be related to it needing an inet connection, or perhaps the update prog is crappy, dont think that 'issue' is related to the copy protection however

Muyfa666

01-11-2005, 10:16

That's the real issue. It could be anything. Ppl from VU-forum reports that "blablabla works perfectly to fix the blabla problem". Some solutions tend to work, some don't. It seems that nothing from that forum is helping everyone. Bottom line: VU has to work the problems out. Pirating or legitimate, I'm sure securom isn't making things better. Maybe not worse, but definatly not better.

Anyone knows if there's been any updates to any no-cd for v1.02? I don't dare to try any right now, cuz I don't wanna mess up my game.

Markiss614

03-11-2005, 17:22

One thing that kinda works...
After patching to v1.02 Make a folder named BACKUP in your FEAR Directory, anc move FEAR.exe and FEARE_2.Arch00 into it. Then use a cracked 1.01 or 1.0 EXE and you'll be able to play. It will still say v1.01 in the corner though :/

Muyfa666

03-11-2005, 22:04

And this actually works? Heh....

Muyfa666

03-11-2005, 22:18

Also, would u care to be more specific? From where should the game be run? And shall the crack be used in BACKUP or what?

Muji-FightR

04-11-2005, 03:32

lol if you move the fear_2 archives the patch was in vein...
the file contains any fixes or new textures or whatever you install with this patch...why putting it away? so you shouldnt even install the patch ;)

I have a 7.1 surround sound sound card and i cant get fear or call of duty 2 to play in dts or surround and i can only select 2d sound does any1 know what i can do

Fekl

04-11-2005, 07:47

lol this method doesn't work for me, or am i doing sth. wrong?? So, is it able to make the game playable without my orig disc, after i installed patch 1.02? So, i hoped the way above it would work, but it didn't! So please give me/us a detailed discription of how you made that and which crack you used!

Joe Forster/STA

04-11-2005, 08:52

@Diamond5100c: You may want to look around and see if some configuration needs to be done either in the sound card settings or the general audio settings of the operating system. Also, remember that this is NOT a general game support forum; you'd better ask the game publisher instead.

I have installed thr 1.02 patch and now I just have to play with the dvd stuck in the player... and I just can stand this!!!!!

Is there a way to execute FEAR directly from the hdd????????????

Joe Forster/STA

07-11-2005, 04:45

Create a maxi image of your original CD/DVD - see the "How to make maxi images" thread; use the SEARCH button -, mount it into the latest Alcohol 120% and then... play around... like physically unplug all CD/DVD-ROM's, run Anti-Blaxx or SR7.Stop or Virtual CD-Hide, perhaps, Starforce Nightmare, too...

So, the question is the same as days ago: the v1.00/v1.01 FixedExe works
on the v1.02 Updated game? I Updated to v1.02 and all works fine with the
Original, new Securom 7.....149 protected game. Nothing BAD at all!! But I
hate to put my original DVD to the drive in ALL Days when I play this game.
Also a new Multi-player map included it's great!!!
I guess not to try in my WORKING updated game with the old FixedExe,
scare to any problems (freezes, etc.) and to lost hours of gameplay if
didn't working good. I tried to make a BWclone from my Original DVD, but
on the v1.01 updated was NOT working what I make/tested hours on v1.00.
So I delete and couldn't waste hours again.

Dammit!!!! I have been trying for weeks now to get to the bottom of this!! i have had 5 .exe files from securom and they conclude that it must be a problem with my pc...which it isn't as selective startup with "nothing" loading still gives the same error..... original disc could not be authenticated error appears when i run the game...(with the dvd in) so i now need a 1.02 no cd crack as i am sick of rubbish tech support for a game that cost me £30!!!!!

please someone help me!!!!:mad: :( :confused:

PM me if you have an original and ill help you play with your backup image (or maxxi found on gamecopyworld) / daemon and 1.02 patch..

I won't help anyone with fake / chinatown / blackmarket / backup of friend / pirated or any other form of illegal material so don't even try.

This will also be my one and only post in this thread :)

Also this method is legal since it doesn't modify game files or files related to the game and also leaves the copy protection intact (it just bypasses the emulator detection schema at system level) (someone was suggesting i was messing with the copy protection in another thread but i don't)

so another reason to have a original since you will need to create a 1:1 image :P

you are messing with the protection, any tool that bypasses the protection can be seen as a violation of the dmca act, and numerous other acts/laws within the uk, europe and so on... and weren't you banned before because of your ego?

It doesn't bypass the protection it simply lets you keep legal progams installed on your pc and doesn't touch the protection in anyway at all. Plus I'm not the creator of the program.
Anyways it doesn't really matter to you does it. If you own it you are legally entitled to own one backup so their protection violates that law (and i don't care about the dcma or uk laws since i dont live in uk / us)

Why bother so much with the 1.02 Update and its non-existing Crack?

If there is NO CD/DVD Crack available, well....play the 1.01 version !!!

I just finished the game :) and I had no problems with any kind of bugs, that's one of the best things of it, no bugs

I downloaded the 1.02 patch and when or even if there is a 1.02 Crack, I will get it then for future F.E.A.R. gaming (for new maps, mods, etc)

So again....why bother to patch it when you don't really need it ?

The game ends when the guy comes out to the open and.....well, why spoil the surprise, lol

Great game, not as scary as I thought it would be but still is a great game 98% Rating

Does anybody have the cd version of F.E.A.R?
I'm trying to make it work using DT4(I bought the game a week ago) and it seems that my image made with Alcohol after CD5 it's not good enough. I need a good *mds file after CD5 to see if it works with Daemon Tools 4. Can anybody send me the file?
Thank you!

Actually, the blacklists are a featureof the protection. Correct? Ok lets assume you agree.

Now: Bypasing the blacklists means bypassing a feature of the protection. Correct? Ok, once again lets assume you agree.

Bypassing the protection is illegal. Correct? Again, lets assume you agree.

Since you have bypassed the protection, you have broken the law, because it states you may not bypasss protection. Correct? Its up to you to agree or not.

If the game is giving you an error, then you shoud contact technical support. Correct? I think so.

So, if this game is giving you problems with playing while you have legal software installed, and you are a 100% legal customer, this means that you have a technical difficulty that the publisher should resolve for you.

Now, lets assume that you dont feel like wasting the time and money on your phone bill to contact a publisher on the other side of the globe. You can visit this forum, and ask for guidance.
This guidance will involve bypassing the protection, therefore illegal, as said above. However you get what you payed for, and no one is harmed.

But dont ever mistake your actions as legal. They arent. If they want to sue your ass off, and they have good lawyers, you are screwed.

What I am trying to say is, your method is not legal, but it gets the job done, and it doesnt harm anyone, so no one cares, and there is a next to zero chance you will be sued.

But do not be under the false illusion that it is legal. It isnt.

1.like i said i didn't create the program i just simply compiled it (its also for private use not public thats why i don't give it out very easy)
2. it modifys your registry and that has nothing to do with the game at all since millions of programs write/read/modify the registry its not my fault they have buggy protection that conflicts with a registry entry seems like its their fault the protection doesn't work correctly (how would i know it breaks their protection?) .
3.Blacklisting software thats not illegal in anyway just because the publisher thinks a user "might" copy or play without a cd is infact a violation of a law somewhere, think what would happen if microsoft blacklisted firefox or some other program because it could do windows update or they just assumed it did bad they would get their asses sued (think this already happened in the past).
4. the game doesnt give me any problems what so ever and i am active on the fear forums helping in whatever way i can, I happen to pay alot for my cd /dvd drives and like to keep my hardware in pristen condition and whileat it have less lag caused from spinups and spindowns / other programs accessing my drive this is really the only reason i like to play with no cd (also to keep original in perfect condition) i would assume you are here for the same reason if not why are you here on this forum?

so if you think that modifying the systems registry just "happens" to break their protection checks and would hold up in court your very wrong.

just them blacklisting legit software is a crime itself, I can't wait untill daemon tools becomes commercial ware i wonder if the protection companys would even touch it

caki

15-11-2005, 21:25

Ok, if its a registry modifying program then, nothing special...

As for the thing where publishers are breaking the law, they can do whatever they want. They have the money. If you wanna sue them, go ahead. Howeer, they can sue you, if your either guilty or not guilty IF THEY WANT TOO. So dont give them a reason to want to do that.

Im here on this forum to help, like you :)

And anything can hold up in court if they have the money on their side.

just them blacklisting legit software is a crime itself, I can't wait untill daemon tools becomes commercial ware i wonder if the protection companys would even touch it

You'll be surprised, thats what I think. The protection companies can do what they want, because there is no one opposing them. And like I said, they have the money, and the backing of publishers, who have even more money.

And as for the MS things, where it blacklists Firefox, I think they can do that, they just have to say in the EULA:

By using this OS you agree not to install any mozilla products... bla bla bla

And they can get away with it. I think :D

Point is, they can do what they want. May your intentions be legal or illegal, all they have to do is make up a ton of BS and you're screwed.

But look on the bright side, the only people they really sue are the guys making the cracks, not people like us.

16-11-2005, 03:05

I am always use the game's builded update feature if allowed. Nearly 100%
sure and not any problems with the original. Also if has some bugfixes what
you get in the game when you playing? Really need the update patch I guess
So, one more thing: sometimes the updated game's saves INCOMPATIBLE
with the older version(s). If you want to play to the END of the game, you
sure make the update patch 1ST (e.g. Dungeon Siege 2 etc.). I see 1st the
SAVE compatibility on the update features, next the bugfixes.
(e.g. when I played CHASER I make MUCH of the patches of the bugs in
my PC, etc. etc.).
I tried the F.E.A.R. MaxiMini-Image with v1.02 update on DaemonTools 4.00
and WORKS PERFECTLY. NO FREEZES or any problems i don't have yet.
AND ofcourse I put back my ORIGINAL DVD to the Box.... For a while??

Fully working solution, tested on Daemon Tools 4.0:

1. Create a new account/user (not administrator) in windows with password, for example called FEAR.
2. Deny the access to following registry keys (not only read acces, deny full access):
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\HARDWARE\DEVICEMAP\SCSI\ and then the scsi port which is from dt or also a second from alcohol for example scsi port 3 and scsi port 4
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\D-TOOLS
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\MOUNTEDDEVICE
and if exists
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\MOUNTEDDEVICE1
3. Now mount the FEAR image with dt as administrator. Click right on the FEAR desktop icon and choose "Execute/Run as", now choose the created account/user (FEAR) and put in the password and press OK.
4. Play

17-11-2005, 02:12

Fully working solution, tested on Daemon Tools 4.0:

Doesn't work for me. With or without this method, FEAR starts ans runs with 100% cpu but nothing happens.

BTW, HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\D-TOOLS doesn't seem to exist with DT4. I installed DT4 on a newly installed system.

UPDATE:
Just tested the new image that has been posted. Does not work. FEAR just takes 100% CPU and thats it.

UPDATE2:
I rebooted with disabled PATA-Controller while i was trying to get SplinterCellCT to run. Now also FEAR runs.
It looks like other IDE-disablers doesn't work correct with my nvidia-Board.

Just reinstalled my game (I finished it with the 1.01 patch) and updated to 1.02 and used the crack, works fine for me. Played three levels and no problems, saved games load back too. Not going to play through it again to make sure, finished it once and it's not really worth replaying.

I have the Original F.E.A.R. DVD (not the Director's Cut verson!) and also I
hate to put my Original Media always at start the game, so:
- Mount the Spirity Mini-Image FEAR.MDF/FEAR.MDS (DT4)
(download from GCW)
- Start SFNIGHTMARE.EXE and DISABLE CD (exit SFN)
- Start SECU_7_BURNER_LOAD.EXE and browse YOUR installed
F.E.A.R. path's FEAR.EXE and start game

If exit from the game, then SFN -> ENABLE CD and UNMOUNT MI

Perfect working. If you get a Message by S7B.L. like this
"UNABLE TO GET SECRET VALUE" simple click OK

I will try Emporio's crack if I downloaded from...

So, I put this note TO THE BAD DIRECTION/PLACE in my Post. The right one
of my part:

any ideas???

Mugros

23-11-2005, 06:35

I didn't need AntiBlaxx, Alcohol120 or the online mini image.
Just make an image of your DVD and use Daemon Tools 4 and disable your IDE controllers.

BarryB

23-11-2005, 06:37

Use the 1.02 crack on GCW and you won't need to mount anything!!

I think the 'Security module' message is when you have something running that is blocking Securom, example is Starforce Nightmare. If I have this running and launch a Securom game like GTA:San Andreas, I get this message, so check if you can find anything running that might interfere with Securom. I'd also use SR7Stop (if using DT3.47 or lower) rather than Anti-Blaxx too!

hey guys, tried surching for this problem, came up with nothing .. so im hoping someone can help me.

I installed fear, got it all working .. used a no cd crack, and all .. but when i go to load the game, its black. I can hear music, and see the cursior when i move it .. but thats all.

Read the read me file to see what was up, unintalled the codex i had, updated my driver. Did almost everything that i thought you could do. Still not working.

Any ideas?

unfortunally i´ve got a problem with Fear.
Updated from 1.01 to 1.02 working fine but throug walking to levels the game crash during auto-save(levelsave) and windows tells me: Fear.exe got a problem: ModVer: 1.2.0.0 Offset: 00102ff9

What´s wrong?

Ummm, I think you banning him was a bit premature. You can legally buy and download FEAR online.

Just go:
http://promos.vugames.com/feardemo/

And although it says demo in the link, it lets you purchase the full game.

@Jeffrey
If this was indeed the case he would have re-registered and argued he did legally download it. ;)

What would be the use of banning people if they can do another account ?

Well I think the mods can check and see if the IP addresses of new members matches banned ones, and if so then re-ban them :)

Or they have a little function that does this for them.

cant you easily avoid this by just erasing the cookies set by fileforums ?
That would do it... :confused: Rather easy, eh ?
