View Full Version : Star Wars: Empire At War running with image
Tyler Durden
15-02-2006, 09:06
Okay guys, here's how I made it:
I created a good image with alcohol, mounted it in DT4 and used pr0t.st0p.
http://cdmediaworld.com/hardware/cdrom/cd_utils_8.shtml
I do not know what kind of protection this game has, so I tried the latest versions of SR7Stop,SD4Hide,antiblah...nothing worked but pr0t.st0p!
I'm nearly sure that this won't work for everybody of you but I made it on MY system and was successfull with it.
Joe Forster/STA
15-02-2006, 09:33
Pr0t.St0p is the next version of SR7.Stop 1.2, with SafeDisc 4 support so, probably, that game is protected by SafeDisc 4.

How??? I tried exactly the same method and always get the "emulator detected" message. Created my image with UltraISO though, I'll try Alcohol asap.
Private-Cowboy
15-02-2006, 12:22
Nope, didn't work with Alcohol created image either. It takes longer (like 10secs with Acohol image instead 2secs with UltraISO image) but "emulator detected" message still pops up.
How to fix that? How did you do it exactly? I tried max dpm and still not working. Please help...
And by the way, the protection is Securom.
Tyler Durden
15-02-2006, 12:42
I tried max dpm and still not working. Please help...
Ahm...do you mean the dpm measurement in alcohol? max dpm is unprecise, try to use the slowest method of measurement(1x) and uninstall alcohol and other programs with virtual drives (not Daemon Tools!) after creating the image. Maybe this will help but like I said, it worked on MY system...
Private-Cowboy
15-02-2006, 13:02
Ok, I'll try a slow dpm. The problem is whenever I mount the image that message pop up. Even if I run the original DVD and Alcohol and Demon still running it works. So those emulator programs are not the problem per se. Either my created image is not good enough or Securom detects Dtools even when using that Pr0t.St0p. But I must say I saw an "improvement" when using the Alcohol image over the UltraISO image, it took a long while before EAW finally said the emulator message. Maye slowing down dpm does the trick.
By the way, what version of EAW are you running? US one?
Edit: Scrap the last one, saw you're in Germany. I'm too atm that's why I got a german version, crappy enough it's not multilanguage.
Private-Cowboy
15-02-2006, 13:38
Nope, still doesnt work. Either I get "emulator detected" or "security module could not be activated" (when I hide the emulator manually using restrictions in the reg database). Well, time to wait till a working image or crack and play with DVD.

16-02-2006, 06:11
What protection is now used? Securom oder safedisc? Could someone scan the game?
Hiya guys,
It might be an idea for those having problems with emulator & similar messages to use device manager to disable thier physical CD drives before using Pr0t.St0p.
This has worked for me with every securom game I've tried. (Emulator detected & security module could not be activated are Securom messages)

Private-Cowboy
16-02-2006, 07:08
Disableing the drives via device managerl? Neat idea, trying that now. Never had to do that with Securom (like Republic Commado or others) but worth a try.
Private-Cowboy
16-02-2006, 07:29
Nope, doesn't work either. Maybe my image is simply not good enough.

Ever tried to burn the image with Alcohol and RMPS enabled?
This worked for me... look at my other thread "How to backup Empire at War".

Well then I would habe two DVD I don't wanna use. I'd like an image so my DVD drives don't need to run.
I cannot get it to run! Tried everything! Even with org. DVD the fu***** Software tells I have to deactivate Emulation Software . . . . Any idea? I have Alc 120 installed! Do I need also Daemon 4 or is here anyone who get it to run with Alc only?
Thanks for help!

hi trying use the new curerom pro 1.3.0b version from here http://www.daemon-tools.cc/dtcc/t9783-curerom-pro-13-released.html

Hi..
Im Using CURECDROM..
Seems To Work Nice And Beautifully.. :-) (TouchWood). LOL
Slapshot99
18-02-2006, 10:23
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 :D 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?

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 :mad:
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!

Thank you all!
Weird thing :/ Anyway i am not sure if it is ok but if you bought originall maybe you can download image files with what curerom will works ? Well I don't know if it is piracy. On the other hand if you have originall why you can't just use your dvds ?
Cheers

If I start from the Org. DVD the Software says after one or two seconds: "Emulator Software and Virtual CDs detected. Please uninstall and deactivate Virtual drives . . ."
He, I am not willing to uninstall Alcohol 120 or Virtual CD 6.0 just to play one game!
Greetings, Sascha
Ahhhh... "Org.DVD=origanall dvd" :) Sry my english is not good and I didn't understand it at beggining, well I was talking with my friend who has DVD version and he said that he doesn't have any problems with running it on laptop using curerom but he must run it in lite mode too. Make image files using Alcohol, than uninstall Alcohol and try run it using DT4 and curerom, we will see if it is alcohol problem.
If I start from the Org. DVD the Software says after one or two seconds: "Emulator Software and Virtual CDs detected. Please uninstall and deactivate Virtual drives . . ."
only happens if you try and run it from the image, i seriously doubt that happens if you use your original, that and it doesnt exactly display that message now does it..., at least not using the words you cite
Morglum007
19-02-2006, 03:06
It does. Neither original runs once installed if Daemon/Alcohol is installed (Original disc could not be found or authenticated. Please insert original disc)
I had to use CureROM 1.3b in order to launch ORIGINAL DVD (testing from a REAL drive)
From image, it launches sometimes using the "Lite" option in CureROM, or just mounting in daemon and launching with SecuROM Loader.
Good luck!
When i´m creating a new curerom profile, which Application exe do i have to choose? and what means application arguments?
Alcohol 120% is shit, if you don't burn cds or dvds don't have it installed. Only install Daemon-Tools 403.
Now, Curerom worked for me, once (tried both 1.22 and 1.30b). At this point I'm using Securom loader, yes, the game is protected with SECUROM NOT SAFEDISC.
So, for the people where Curerom or pr0t.st0p doesn't work. Try Securom-Loader
Make sure you have no shiz- installed cause that can cause trouble too. (like older versions of alcohol, or daemontools.
Forget my silly question.. it WORKED!
GERMAN DVD Version
I made an image with alcohol, using DPM, Precision High.
Using Curerom, activated Anti-Blacklist Option, no other settings (no mounting, emulation settings activated here!)
Using DT4, mounting Image, Emulation RMPS.
Thats all, worked fine for me!

Well, he's German (Sascha ?), and as German games produce German error messages, it's hard to guess the exact english words.
And i assume, even with inserting the original, the game will say, emulation software found. It will look for DT and Alc and whatever in general, not if the original is inserted or not.
I had the same problem with Spellforce, before I found out that AntiBlaxx would have fixed the prob, I had to create a new WinXP user account...
There is a mini-image floating around!
Just tried it and it works much better than the DVD image. Works 100% of the time now.
The filesize is about 100mb, so I doubt gamecopyworld would host it.
DRAGoN.X
19-02-2006, 13:30
Used A-ray to scan it and it's Securom.
Must be a newer version that Srstop can't get past, and neither can SD4 Stoper.
Hi. I bought EAW on Friday and have since lost the disks. Luckily I make a habit of storing Images of the disks on my HDD. Unfortunately I cannot get the game to work now without the original CDs.
I'm not very good at this, so can someone tell me exactly how I can get the game working again please?
In step by step, easy to understand stages please?
Thanks

How do you loose the discs in two days?
First off, I would contact whoever made the game (lucasarts?) and ask them to send you a new copy proabably with a fee.
Second, I guess you'll have to wait for GCW to host a no-cd or mini-image.

I can confirm that the mini image does indeed work. It takes like a minute for the game to start, but it works. Full image takes a few seconds, but it doesn't work.
Going through all that trouble, i asked myself if it's not easier to just put the CD in and play lol.
Could someone please give me a download link (pm)? Please, that would help me!

19-02-2006, 21:52
i didnt read the rules
wont happen again
Daemon Tools 4.03 + Securom Loader (http://www.daemon-tools.cc/dtcc/files//toolsv4/SecuROM_loader.rar) (from Daemon Tools 3rd party addons) After everything else I tried, this worked. FYI, the only anti-blacklist program besides the loader I have installed = Curerom 1.31b (which does not work for myself) So.. if you got other loaders etc, I suggest gettin rid of 'em and their settings.
G'luck!
*Edit* Well, I had closed the game to post this. Tried to start it right back up and got the 'failed to authenticate' message. So, I remembered that when I had started Securom Loader originally, I didn't have the image mounted yet. I got the "insert sweaw cd" message -then mounted, and hit retry. The first time, the game started instantly. This time it gave me error again. So I repeated the process of:
1. Start AntiSecuROM.exe, choose sweaw.exe.
2. After "Enter CD" prompt appears, Start Daemon Tools 4.03 & mount given image. Exit Daemon Tools.
3. Click Retry in the "Enter CD" box.
Hopefully.. this'll help some of you.
can anyone pm me with a link to the image file, many thanks
It is working with curerom 1.3.1 & daemon tools 4.03. After you can make your curerom settings, right click on the sweaw.exe then change compatibility mode to windows 2000 and see it is working :)

@dconnah: If you don't have the original CD's/DVD's anymore, you're not eligible for support on this forum as your copy is considered warez then. Contact the publisher for a replacement, at a nominal price.
@pc84:
could you please post the link to the site you called newsgroup, where the mini-image can be downloaded? can't find it
A newsgroup isnt a website, its a news service, which you can access from signing up to any usenet servers (good ones cost money of course) some ISP's have good binaries support.
But most ISP's wont allow you onto any newsgroups that are illegal.
On a side note, if tried the mini-image and only got it to work with SecuRom Loader, as previously posted in this thread. It also works with the new 1.02 patch.
yeah, thats true. so it would be really nice if someone could post a link to a site where you can download it, or someone who already has the mini image uploads it to somewhere a then posts the link.

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 :mad:
Another link was to a newsgroup, which I cannot join :mad:
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 . . . .

Meanwhile Grab the 1.02 patch...
ftp://ftp.lucasarts.com/patches/pc/EAWUpdate1_2.exe
Now listen
Grab the patch and apply it...
After that mount the FULL image i think you all have made by now using DT403 with all emulation options on.
Then use the AntiSecurerom and as exe file choose the sweaw.exe which is in the GAMEDATA folder.
Thats it...
Worked for me !
Enjoy !
What I did:
1)close Daemon tools and have no virtual drives
2) open curerom lite and enable it
3) run Daemon tools with every emulation anabled and mount ure image ( I use full image)
4) open antisecurom and choose the sweaw.exe file
5) play the game
the weird thing is that it doenst always work somethimes I have to try it a few times to kick in
and I can't start the game if I apply the new 1.2 patch even if I try it several times
ps: does anyone know where the game stores the savegames? thnx

Hmmm it works like a charm in my rig.

2) open curerom lite and enable it
3) run Daemon tools with every emulation anabled and mount ure image ( I use full image)
4) open antisecurom and choose the sweaw.exe file
5) play the game
the weird thing is that it doenst always work somethimes I have to try it a few times to kick in
and I can't start the game if I apply the new 1.2 patch even if I try it several times
ps: does anyone know where the game stores the savegames? thnx
This method worked for me. As opposed to the method I posted earlier. It worked twice I think, then didn't. Now I'm sure this method will fail me and the old one work again.. maybe after reboot.. I dunno wtf to say about all this trouble :o
P.S. Thanks for the image link.. it's dead (invalid download link) now tho. Someone should seed it and post the torrent here. :)

I just mounted the image with DT and ran SecuRom using the sweaw in game data. That worked for me twice then I started getting the "original disc could not be found or authenticated" message. I didn't patch the game or anything, it worked earlier today but tonight it just stopped working. I searched the forums and this seemed to happen to a lot of people. Any ideas on why this happens? I don't think it could be the image because it wouldn't have worked at all if it was a bad image. I tried it ten times and figured if it was going to work it would work one of those times, but it didn't. Can the program somehow get "smarter" and figure out there is no disc? I guess I'm back to using the original disc until someone figures this out.

Thanks for image file, works good. the one i made didn't
I just did the following steps
Install game
Install patch 1.2
Install Daemon Tools 4.03
Unpack Sweat_mini_image to starwars empire at war\gamedata folder
Mount the image with Daemon tools and turn on all emulation selections
If game starts, close it

Start Curerom, and input this:
Options, third party virtual, select Daemon tools and exe file
Application, select SWEAW file in gamedata folder. click next
Image mounting software, select I do not want to use any virtual. click next
make shortcut name {sweaw} and click next
save and finish
With image mounted via Daemon, run sweaw shortcut made from Curerom to play

thank to all folks who helped me or at leat tried to

good morning from german - with 7 gold medalls on our hands ;)
so for me this solution works fine :
- login as user WITH Admin rights
- start Deamon 4.03 and mount the mini image
- run Prot.Stop 1.0 -hide-
NOW :
- change user -> login as user with user rights
- start the game :)
i must do it this way, cause i ever get an error msg from securom protected games like : "A required security module can not be activated. This program can not be executed." - thats it, why i normaly start securom games as "normal user"
dunno why - but it works fine
hope i could help und thx 4 the mini image

4) open antisecurom and choose the sweaw.exe file
5) play the game
After trying all other methods, this one is the one that worked. But I installed the whole game, then use the mini-image to mount in DAEMON. And I also updated to 1.2. But it works finally. Thanks alot:)
I don't see what the trouble is with this. Apparently not everyone out there has the ability to make a 1:1 backup copy anymore? I have a sony dvd/cdrw combo drive - the original cd's work fine, and the 'backup cd's work fine for me. I don't run alcohol 120 or daemon tools. Frankly, if you have a CD, and you have a backup of that cd, I'd much rather have the space on my hard drive than fragment and trash a system with image files. But then I only have 260GB over 3 hard drives to play with.
Securom doesn't work with all DVD/CD drives - Toshiba's models have trouble with it, and it sucks that some paying customers have those drives that are incompatible. Solution? Either get Securom to modify their protection for better compatibility, or get Toshiba to update their incompatible firmware. Or, third option, get a drive that works.

I have tried all thing which were menched above.If i use DT and Securom it cant load Anti Black list mesures..windows 2000 mode tried..mini image also...AntiSecurom also...tried even 1.2 path to apply... eror all the time.If i use mini image and diferent limited acount...cant identify if original cd.Where to get curerom lite?
This game IS Driving my mad!!! help me plz....
I have been watching this thread with interest as i am also having problems getting Star Wars Empire At War working, however, i seem to have a different problem to everyone else (isn't that always the way).
I have installed the game, but whenever i run sweaw.exe i get:
'A required security module can not be activated. This program can not be executed.'
This is even when i don't have daemon tools running (or any other image software)!
Could it be picking anything else up as a potential problem, or because i had d-tools running the first time i tried it, it has decided i have tried to use an image and not won't unlock the .exe?
Hello everybody,
I've tried almost every thing to make the game work including disabling by REAL DVD-ROM (just from the device manager) used cureROM but strangly the game WORKED ONLY THE FIRST TIME i used cureROM then it kinda knew what i was doing :D & a different message came out, something like:
"Original disk couldn't be found or authenticated" not the "emulation detected" error
I'm still trying to make it work, didnt give up yet :confused:
thnx

I have the exact same problem, but even when removing Alcohol and DT4 and playing from the original disk, I still get the error! Very disappointing!

I can't see anything called "Antisecurom" there ... are you suggesting that it is a generic term for any of the securom defeating tools?
Cheers.
PS: I have obtained a copy of the mini-image (http://rapidshare.de/files/13757736/...IMAGE.rar.html) and that starts the game 9/10 tries - which will have to do.
PPS: Incidentally, the (hard) copy I made of my DVD would run the game about 1/10 tries ... seemed to do so regardless of any securom defeating measures i was attempting. The image i made and mounted using DT4 would not run the game at all though - just told me it could not authenticate.

Here is how i got it to work.
Load DT 4.03he, and mount your image (enable all emulation);
Load Curerom 1.31 select enable;
Start the game, after about 3 seconds click disable in Curerom;
wait abit and game should load. I tried it 3 time with success everytime.
I do get a windows error after closing the game, but no biggie.
1)close Daemon tools and have no virtual drives
2) open curerom lite and enable it
3) run Daemon tools with every emulation anabled and mount ure image ( I use full image)
4) open antisecurom and choose the sweaw.exe file
5) play the game
Reset my computer, then did those things in that order. Works perfect now.

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.

updated for 1.2
mounted the mini image linked on this thread a couple of pages back on DT 4.03

targetted AntiSecuRom to sweaw.exe (runs the game automaticly from there)
the game will load up in about 5 seconds

1. Simply insert your backup into cd or dvd rom.
2. Install game.
3. After install finishes, leave CD-1 in the drive.
4. Do not run using the normal shortcut.
5. Download Securom_loader V1.0 at http://www.daemon-tools.cc/dtcc/download.php?mode=Download&id=88
6. Run the .exe and open the "sweaw.exe" in C:\Program Files\LucasArts\Star Wars Empire at War\GameData directory and it should work fine. It did for me.
7. If this doesn't work the first time you try to open, just keep trying...eventually it will work.
8. For some reason, mine works better while inserted into my cd/dvd burner.
Its kind of a pain but it works good enough until the no cd crack is released.
Plus you don't even need Daemon Tools or CureRom.
Cheers!

2) Create a CureRom profile with NO virtual drive software.
3) Double click the icon CureRom places on your desktop.

Multiplayer doesn't work.
It will work if you bought the game and not get the warez. It works fine for me.

and I didn't even waste a cd, I have my image mounted on DT 3.47, no sr7_stop, no prot, shmut or clut, just use curerom.

I use that exact method and it works about half the time. It seems as though this new version of securom is messed up, sometimes detecting emulation when there's not and not detecting it when there is. Look in the Lucasarts tech support forum, the largest thread(s) by far are dealing with the copy protection. Bottom line, until we get a fixed .exe, use trial and error. I have got it to work using curerom 1.31 and antisecurom 1.1 (separately, not in conjunction), but neither one works every time. Don't assume that because it doesn't work once that it won't work at all. Try several times with each (restarting the computer occasionally seems to help, but I could be imagining it). One thing is 100% true in my case at least, it doesn't like Alcohol 120 must uninstall and use DT.
Anybody who tried the Securom_Loader has their windows taken longer to load than usual?
After running Curerom Lite and exiting it afterwards, has anyone experienced a total system crash?

Yes. You have to disable, then exit. Also make sure you have the latest version. When it did it for me it was instant, as soon as I closed my system would reboot.

When I clicked disable, it waited for a while, then the window unfroze (I could move it, suggesting the proccess was over, disabled). I then clicked the X and every program on my computer crashed, AND I got the clock saying comp will reboot in x seconds. Win2k here. Is that the problem? Also, I couldn't download the miniimage. I tried practically every method and none worked, EVEN THOUGH the game did launch the first time I tried it. It's a paradox.

Do you have a 64 bit CPU by anychance?
I've got the DVD version of the game, but the Spanish version one. I've tried everything u all posted here: cureROM, Alcohol 120%, DT, AntiSecuROM, and nothing worked for me. I only get it to work once, but i can't make it again. Is it possible that the guys of Lucasarts had put another protection in the Spanish version? I don't want to uninstall my Alcohol or my DT for just one game, as i use them a lot, although the game was a little bit expensive :p . Still no news of a noCD or noDVD fix? Wanna playyyyy!!! :D

I found a way to run the game without CureRom!
Try to use Pr0t.St0p! v1.0! Hide the virtual Roms! Then if you start the game it will be a message: "Original disc could not be found or authenticated." Dont worry, just try to start it again, and again! I can start it for 3-4 times!

Try to use Pr0t.St0p! v1.0! Hide the virtual Roms! Then if you start the game it will be a message: "Original disc could not be found or authenticated." Dont worry, just try to start it again, and again! I can start it for 3-4 times!
Good luck!
I dont work I have try it 11 time's :( :(
Why yes I do. Why do you ask?
All my problems seem to be fixed after some late night tinkering. So the game works without the disc and my computer seems normal.

I think its CPU vs Securom_loader problems. I have an AMD 64 also so must be that.

If none of the methods work, it's possible that your image is bad. Try downloading the mini-image.

I don't get an errormessage like "original cd not found" or " emulationsoftware detected". I get "A required security module can not be activated".
I'm not sure is this a standard errormessage means "You little a**hole put in your legally bought cd of EAW" or is there another prob with the installation or sth.
Now it's important for me to know if can I solve the prob with the solutions posted in this thread or.....what else I have to do

I don't know how long this will stay up, but since it's supposedly legal, I don't think they will have any problems.

meh. I'd link to a torrent here, but all the trackers I use are either on warez sites, or would reject this as being warez itself.
Got it to work
changed my image drive to the d:/ drive
I think the site died :(
Anyone else want to try another host?

I wonder what I am doing wrong. I've followed every piece of advice written in this thread, save for physically disabling my drives. I used DT 4.03 (even tried 3.47 out of hope), CureRom 1.31, CureRom Lite, Prot.Stop, SR7.Stop, S4Hide(just in case), AntiSecurom, I've downloaded the mini image and mounted it instead and I've removed any traces of StarForce from the system by their own removal tool.
Yet I still get the "a required security module was found up in your ass" message. If that matters I use Windows Media Edition, not XP home or pro. Lucas Arts' technical support is not really a support and now I am unable to play the game I pre-ordered!! This is in a word bull...
Any ideas what I should do (aside from waiting for a NoCD patch of course) would be appreciated...

You should probably reinstall the game. Use DT4.03 and make sure that the only virtual drive you have on your system is the one (must be the only Virt drive) there is the one that DT will use. Follow the instructions of the curerom tool to the letter. Oh, and make sure you are using an uncorrupted downloaded ROM. Also, removing starforce is not a good idea, since the games flat out won't run without it.

25-02-2006, 15:49
Hey Slon, thanks for giving me a hand... Yeah, the only virtual drive I have is the DT's, but I do have a drive to read all those memory cards & etc. so the drive letters are full up to K, with Deamon taking G; but I guess that shouldn't be a problem...
What did you mean by having an uncorrupted downloaded ROM? And when I re-install the game, should I mount my image with DT all emulations on, or would that change anything at all?:)
By the way, the company that makes Starforce protection says that any time you run a game that uses SF the program will automatically install itself and then run the game, so that shouldn't matter.

Drive letter shouldn't matter. I have mine on L. Basically, make sure you mini-image was downloaded completely with no corruptions. Perhaps check it with
http://www.yourfilelink.com/get.php?fid=34434
?
Yes, have all emulation options on. Then, in CureRom, make sure when you edit the file, that all the emulation options are grayed (basically tells it to use whatever options DT has on).
As for SF, just make sure you don't uninstall it once game is installed.
I have tried everything to get this game to work.
I figure ill just wait to get the no-cd crack.
btw if you cpu is running slow run ad-aware.With mine it wouldnt let me into anything but now im fine i deleted that stuff and now i sit here waiting for the no-cd crack:D

Hi,
I can't provide help for the cd authentification errors, but I can help with those who have the "security module could not be loaded" problem. This has to do with files deemed eeviiil by the security of the game, and which are currently installed on the PC. I don't know which files are exactly to blame, but an issue to this problem is the following:
1) Log in to a new account (I use the guest account)
2) Mount your image file (I use the mini one, but the normal one should be ok) with Daemon tools v4.3 all emulation enabled.
3) Start the game with Securom loader.
Works 100% of the time.
Hope this helps !
Evrenin Hakimi
26-02-2006, 02:07
%100 working for me :
1. Download Securom Loader 1.1 (http://www2.daemon-tools.cc/dtcc/download.php?mode=ViewCategory&catid=2) (updated 21/2/2006)
2. Mount mini or full image with dæmon tools v4.03, all emulations enabled.
3. run securom loader, choose sweaw.exe from data directory.
no need to account switch.

I used Game Jackal... Didn't use a profile map. During the "locate title" part I used sweaw.exe, NOT launchEAW.exe. For profiler mode, dynamic extended scan didn't work for me, so I tried Standard mode and it worked. Every so often, when I try to load the profile, it asks for the cd -- but then I disable the profile and try again and it loads the game up fine.
EDIT: Oh, and I have alcohol 120% and Daemon Tools installed with a virtual drive enabled and neither program is causing me a problem with Game Jackal loading Empire at War.
Cornellian - i had exactley teh same problem but then i changed my virtual drive (f) to the d:/ drive and it has worked every time now:D
using deamon with curerom latest update with eaw on update 1.2

Hey all. I have read the whole thread now and it seems I have a different problem than all of you..
I installed the cd version and when trying to start, it tells mit the sweaw file is missing and indeed I cant find it in the gamedate folder...
How is that? what am I doing wrong?
reinstall the game and it should be there:)
maybe you accidentally deleted it or something:D
Where can i find the mini-image?
Someone know a link?
Sorry about my english, i´m brazillian
ok, forget my last post..
i found it here on forum...
i´m downloading it...
ride_hard
27-02-2006, 03:51
It works well until, after the movies , it doenst load into the game , exception error ....
what can it be ?
dont work here...
i downloaded it, emulated on DT 3.47, DT 4.03. I used CureROM 1.3.1 and still not working. I tried use sd4hide and SR7.Stop_1.0, none works.
I get "A required security module can not be activated".
Someone have any idea to how fix it?
again, sorry about my english.

Try Pr0t.St0p, too (it's the continuation of SR7.Stop). Have you tried all the tricks in the FAQ?
i just tried it "Pr0t.St0p v1.0" doesn't work too...
ok, let me see again:
i have the image of dvd version...
i installed by emulated image (DT 3.47, all emulations on)
i downloaded the mini-image "SWEAT_MINI_IMAGE.rar"
i emulated the file "EAW_1.BWI" (DT 4.03)
open the "Pr0t.St0p v1.0" clicked Hide...
close "Pr0t.St0p v1.0"
i try play.
now i get "emulator detected"
when i use the CureROM 1.3.1 (with DT 3.47), i get "the original disc cannot be found or identified"
and i discover now the CureROM 1.3.1 doesn't detect DT 4.03... strange..
what can i do?
i think the problem is with the mini-image...
i think the mini-image is from cd version, not dvd version...
can be that the problem?
one more time, sorry about my english, i'm brazillian
Finally I got it to work for me...
Here is what I did.. first of all I had the problem, that even after a reinstall the sweaw.exe file was missing in the gamedata folder..
I googled sometime and found it here.. It seems to be a fixed .exe file
Version 1.0 :
http://www.securom.com/support/custo...t129/sweaw.zip
Version 1.2:
http://www.securom.com/support/custo...t154/sweaw.zip
I used the 1.0 version. I guess the 1.2 is for the game if updated... Not sure though, since I d/l 1.0 and I am using the 1.0 version of the game.
Then I downloaded Deamon Tools 4.0.3.... after getting the 110 mb Miniimage..
I mounted it using all options on "On"... Then I downloaded the SecuRom from the link posted somewhere before... Opened it, used the .exe file from above to start and it worked... No problems at all using this method..
I have the double CD version, not the dvd version.. Got it as to blindwrite4 images...
Oh and dont hesitate to use the sweaw.exe if its missing in your folder.. It is indeed a german page, but I also have the english version of the game..
It might be, that the miniimage only works with the CD version of the game.. Not sure though.. A friend of mine has the game on dvd.. I will test that later this week.
Wow and another thing. I installed it on the pc of my friend.. If you try to start the game by using the sweaw.exe it tells you "Emulator detected" and will not run.. Guess thats what SecuRom is there for.

Hey everyone- finally got it to work after playing about with it for a little while.
Here is what I have on my PC at present and I'm running the game fine on WinXp Pro with all the latest patches installed.
Appz you will need to get the game working- make sure they are fully installed before beginning this procedure
Latest versions of Alcohol 120%, Daemon Tools & CureRom
Securom 7 Burner Loader
The game is also fully installed to my games HD
You need to have an image of the game discs on your HD before we begin and also install the game fully onto your HD.
Here is what I have done to get the game working...
Mount the first discs image into Alcohol 120% with the following emulation options- Ignore Media (unticked) Launch CD/DVD (unticked) RMPS (ticked)
Extra emulation- all options (ticked)
Close Alcohol 120%
Daemon Tools is NOT running on my system at present and all emulation in Daemon Tools is DISABLED
Go to where you have installed the game on your HD, and go into the gamedate folder where you will see the sweaw.exe file.
Right-click it and choose properties, click compatibility and change the compatability mode to 'Run in Win NT 4.0 SP5 Compatability mode'
Click apply and ok.
Now- you need to run CureRom LITE and click the ENABLE box.
Now- fingers crossed everyone.
Go back into where you installed the game and go into the gamedata folder yet again, now double click the sweaw.exe file.
If its worked- your mouse pointer will change to a round black object!
If its done that- your up and running.
Any questions- feel free to email me @ angelusxl********com or visit my website at www.angelusxl.com and register on the forums to speak to me personally.
Hope it works for you!

A lot of people seem to be having problems with the bugginess of the game, myself included. You should update to 1.2, even though I doubt it will solve all the problems for you.

Create a backup of CD1 from your originals
4x speed
uncheck "Autoplay" in options !
Answed YES to ? keep physical structure on CD

================================
P.S use certified CD-R ! :-)
sorry my bad english )
erm, i'd edit that post if i were you... telling people to download the 'mirror' release is illegal.. and definately against the rules of this forum
People I had the same problems like you having..
sat on this for 3 wonderful days guessing from where should I attack this problem and get this great game to work..so here it how it's done ..u should check it
1. Download the Mini Image file (admins i wanna upload it to gcw..how can I?)
2.move the files to the game folder where U installed the game
3.Mount it on DT4! and use only RMPS! the file is "EAW_1.bwt"
4.after mounting ..i know it is a little slow SO WHAT!! the game is working! use the SecuROM_loader 1.1
5. open with it the exe game file U've just installed on your computer
6 ENJOY A GREAT!! GAME
Ive tried everything!! anything! all the progies...told ya again 3 days no...
HE HE..!

@DABHand: "appz" is shorter than "software application". And, guess what, at my work place, we have a network share called "warez" on our central file server which contains the install packages of the legally bought softwares we use. :D
i can launch the game only whit the mini-image, but when i play, i have no sound
have you a idee for correct that??

If you can't launch the game without a mini image, complain at the publisher.
Have a read on his forum Joe especially about Law and Order Criminal Intent ;)
no i can not launch the game without the mini image!
i have only a problem whith the sound, he don't will working!

Let me repeat: If you can't launch the game without a mini image, complain at the publisher! (Since you're from the USA, I assume you understand plain English, right?) This is NOT a general game support forum.
By the way, is the reason for your need for a mini image that you don't have the original CD/DVD?
usare immagine dvd con programma curerom e profilo non mettere dvd nel lettore usare draivervirtuale Alcohol 120% start 1.2.3.4.5.6.7 volte ok
excused I do not speak English
to use image dvd with program curerom and profile not to put dvd in the reader to use draivervirtuale Alcohol 120% start 1.2.3.4.5.6.7 times ok:D :o :p :)
exists other mini-image? that one isn't working with me.
sorry my english, i'm brazillian
Everything worked great using pr0t.stop until I updated the game to new patched version. Now when I try to run it in windows 2000 compatibility mode with pr0t.stop, I get that stupid "Could not authenticate disk" error... Anyone have any ideas?
pr0t.stop it does not work to use curerom
A crack got released a few minutes ago. Will upload it tomorrow if it haven't been uploaded already by then... :D
Reloaded did it again and it seems as if they cracked the patch.. :)

Are you this friendly to everyone you speak to on the internet - or is it just me in particular you have a problem with? :D
We all have our affiliations to something in life- I think you know where I stand with mine.
Also to your comment on 'Appz' - I use this as a quick abbreviation when I am in a rush.
I have to say as well- isnt it funny when I posted my message on the Legacy forum there was no patch out for Law & Order: CI ... then after the message about 2 days- lo and behold.. a patch is out.
Coincidence? Maybe- but I'd like to think that I helped them sort that out.

In this case LucasArts acually gives a crap about its customer and supports them, hence the patches already for certain bugs.
Legacy, still for me are in the dark ages.

-Install game as per usual
-Mount the mini-image downloaded from Slom's post on page 12 (thanks Slom!) using DT4
-run sweaw.exe in GameData\ using AntiSecuROM
-Kill Rebel Scum
In case you're interested, my computer specs are
AMD 64 3000+
R9800pro 128mb
SB Audigy LS
Dvd burner
3 PATA and 1 SATA drive
DVICO HDTV tuner card
1gb ram
win xp pro 32-bit (not game enough to try 64-bit version.. 32 bit works just fine)
I don't have to hide drives, or disconnect them (*Cough*prince of persia the two thrones*Cough*)
I don't have to use CureROM, and I don't think the DT4 emu opts matter.

I've installed Patch 1.04 and tesed all the Szenarie posted her with the Mini Image and the greater Image (posted from Slog) in this thread, but nothing will work for me.
Only the Tip with CureROM LITE can't teste, cause i've found no Link oder Page to download this Prog (only CureROM, and it's installed).
By the Way i use the DVD CE from the Game in German Language and it seems to me that all Versions they here teste ar the English Version.
Any Idea too bring on the Game running without the DVD or CD inside ??

Ups...sorry i've forgot to post the CurROM Version (where was my Head ?? :D ).
Yes i've only found CurROM 2.0.2 and it seems that in this Version is only CurROM and no CureROM Lite.

Securom looks for the CureRom.exe process. A simple fix is to rename the C:\Program Files\CureRom\CureRom.exe file to something else (like "Crom.exe"). Then run this file and it will re-associate the CureRom profiles with it. Now Securom won't complain about it anymore when using an image. I used this to run Stronghold 1.3.1 and SWEaW 1.04, it works for both.

Thx for all the Help.
After some Trials it will now work.
Here my Part to get the Game working without the CD /DVD:
1. Disabled the AntiVirus Tool.
2. Start Pr0tSt0p an click HIDE.
3. Start Deamon Tools, select all Emulation ON.
4. Mount the Image with Deamon Tools.
5. Start the Game with the CUREROM Shortcut.
It seem that the first Step is Important when running a AnitVirus Protection Tool an the PC, cause the AntiVirus Protection Tool wil scan the Files from the mounted Image.
This will cost Time, so the Error "Faild to read the Orignal Disk by Time" will Popup.

Hey where did you get Prot.Stop from. Can you post a link.
@Faraz Hayat
Download Prot.Stop from cdmediaworld (http://cdmediaworld.com/hardware/cdrom/cd_utils.shtml). Look under the heading 'CD/DVD Protection Utilities'. ;)
