Tomb Raider: Legend 1.1 wont run with image

[HeDbAnGeR]

Hi, Ive got the euro version of Tomb raider Legend, and patched it to 1.1, and now it wont run with neither mini- nor maxiimage.
Tried Daemontools 4.03 in connection with
Securom Loader 1.1 --> Emulator found
CureRom 1.3.1--> Security module cannot be loaded
Pr0t.St0p --> Emulator found
dt alone --> emulator found

what should i try?

my sys is xpsp2 witha xp-m 2500+@2300mhz
nero 7.0.8.2
no clonecd/dvd products are currently installed, i uninstalled the recently.
nero virtual cd disabled/not installed

Try to unplug/deactivate your CD/DVD-Devices.

I think the 1.0-Crack will not work, right?

If nothing helps, wait some days or weeks until another crack will be released.

[darkan9el]

Hi do you have a reason for updating to 1.1?

I have CloneDVD2, Alcohol 120% + 2 Virtual Drives, CloneCD, Nero 7, DVD decrypter and a few others. I don't have daemon tools etc and I can run TRL fine. I live in the UK and have just had mine delivered from Amazon Uk.

You may want to look at the post I have just put up: http://fileforums.com/showthread.php?t=76288

best regards Dark

[Nightmare]

OK, I've tried it, too.
No chance with the 1.0-Crack.
The update does change the following files:
bigfile.040
bigfile.050
bigfile.001
bigfile.048
bigfile.000
and of course the exe-file.

The mini image doesn't work as you have written.

Wait for another crack or try to unplug your CD/DVD-Devices.
Or simply don't use the patch :p

[zellar]

That update is for the UK version only. It is a fix for the "Next Gen" graphics option. The readme states that Eidos was having trouble and they know it stutters...but a patch would soon follow. I must say the "Next Gen" graphics options is really GREAT! For those with a 7800GT 512 meg video card you can run in "Next Gen" graphics without the stutter.

[Nightmare]

That update is for the UK version only.
I don't think so.
Who say this? I see the patch on a German site.
And there is no information about the region.

It is a fix for the "Next Gen" graphics option.

It fixes performance, gamepad & stability-problems.

Tried the unplug method with the same results... got to use the original dvd until a crack arrives, which shouldnt take that long.

P.S. I don't understand your title name...

[telex]

I need the official patch to turn back the "y" camera axis. Can not play with normal mode...

[HeDbAnGeR]

Anyone seen a nocd for the 1.1 patch?

[Nightmare]

Nope, I haven't.
If I find one, I will post it very quickly.

Greets

[acare84]

There will be no no-cd for Tomb Raider Legend 1.1 Because Patch is using newest Securom module.

[Tom Keller]

It is possible to run Tomb Raider Legend 1.1 with the mini-image:
I started TRL 1.1 with Filemon running and i saw that the trl.exe was looking for the AntiSecuROM.dll. So i renamed the DLL and AntiSecuROM.exe and also edited the EXE with an hex editor (to find the renamed DLL). Et voilà: Tomb Raider Legend 1.1 now working with the GCW mini-image mounted in DT 4.03 :D .

[maylat]

mmm slow slow please first of all i have trying to run filemon with securom games and i get secure module error so filemon is blacklisted and how you rename the exe file i think is only posible with decompiler programs and i think securom not only check file names they check much more files to see if any antiblaclist is running , so if is work for you, share the modifies files and see if is true

[Tom Keller]

Yes... Filemon is blacklisted - but it seems like if you run both, SecuROM-Loader and Filemon, the game wont give you a error message... it just close itself without any message (dunno why). But in Filemon you can see, that it finds the AntiSecuROM.dll before it closes.

I guess a disassembler is needed if you try to modify CureROM - it seems like thats what someone did, who wrote this in the CureROM forum (or maybe he disassembled the trl.exe :eek: - im not sure):
TRL 1.1 checks for CureRom.dll. If it finds it, it just quits without any notice.
I saw this with filemon (from SysInternals), started directly after trl.exe.
I tried renaming the dll so it cannot find it, but damn... it still quits.
Then I replaced all strings from CureRom to LureRom and it does work.
Perhaps CureRom 2 will fix it without going into this much trouble.
This is what i tried - but CureROM needs to be disassembled... to hard for me to do and even (i assume) not quite legal. So i used SecuROM-Loader cause the dll-call seems to be written in plain text - this (http://rapidshare.de/files/18122150/AlkiSecuROM.rar.html) is the result. I got a few confirmations that it works, but dont know if it works for all people :confused: ...

[Nightmare]

Nice posts:)
I will try this today.

If anybody has still problems, wait a few days or weeks (I hope there will be days),
I have red that CureROM 2.0 will be released soon (on the 08th april they wrote "Excpected to be released next week") ;)
See also the quote of Tom.

Changelist:

Yes CureROM 2.0 is near only needs some beta testing and translating. Here is what to expect in this new version. Check out the screen below.

1. Support for multiple languages.
2. Improved Anti-Blacklist Measures.
3. Support for "Game Jackal".
4. Fixed: files containing ASCII characters.
5. No more "false positive" Virus Warnings.
6. Added option for Windows Compatibility Mode.
7. Support for DAEMON-Tools "Secure Mode".
8. Fixed CureROM Blacklist by SecuROM.

And more yet to be coded..

Expected to be released next week

My source (http://www.curerom.net/comments.php?shownews=10&catid=1).

I haven't work till yet with ANTI-SecuROM-programs.

Do I only need the current version of CureROM and your AlkiSecuROM.rar-files?
I needn't to use Filemon or SecuROM-loader for this method, right?
Maybe only replacing "CureROM" with "LureROM"...

No... it's even more simple. You don't need CureROM (cause the current version won't work and the future version is not available until yet). The thread from the CureROM forum is only where i've got that idea from...
The only thing you need is the AlkiSecuROM.rar (and DAEMON Tools 4.03 + GCW mini-image of course). Just mount the mini-Image in DT 4.03, extract the RAR and run AlkiSecuROM.exe. It will ask you for the SecuROM-protected game-exe - so choose the trl.exe and... that's it. The Game should start (hopefully ;) )...

[Whos_Ur_Paddy?]

what is alkisecurom and where do i get it if it is anti securom you are talking about i have tried this and it dont work

[TippeX]

so antisecurom.exe doesn't need antisecurom.dll?
i think it does, simply because the antisecurom.dll is the dll it injects into the process...

[juergen]

Guys,

dont get confused and mix up Antisecurom with the modified Alkisecurom.
Read Tom Kellers Post carefully, and you will be done.

You can find Alkisecurom in the previous Tom Keller Post (marked with a hyperlink : "this")

Have fun with TR:L 1.1

Thank you Tom Keller !!

For example it may be 8.23 for you but it was '17.53' for me here in Australia. ;)

AlkiSecuROM is not working of TRLv1.1

ERROR: Failed to open BIGFILE.000

[Muyfa666]

Try to run it with the EXE, not the shortcut.

Also, this method works for me, but the game is unplayable, due to all keypresses is 5-10 seconds delayed. Still, the game works fine without the patch... strange.

[Benny10]

C:\Programme\AlkiSecuROM\AlkiSecuROM.exe -r K:\Tomb Raider - Legend\trl.exe<---is the EXE

Run the program, choose the EXE within the program. Comprende?

Alkisecurom way works! Love you! Period! Now I'm off to play :D

BIG THANKS TO YOU!!

@Muyfa666 Big THX! is working :D

Thx soo much!!! work fine for me, daemon tool 4.03 (nothing emulation on) big mini iso and the modified file (thx again).

[d3rd3vil]

Yeah thank yo very much. Works great :)

I use the first Gamecopyworld image and the modified AlkiSecuRom. Then I mount the image with Daemon Tools and start AlkiSecuRom. Then I select the Tomb Raider exe and everything works fine :)

[Whos_Ur_Paddy?]

alki securom wrecked my hd i downloaded it went to run the game with mini image mounted on daemon tools and my pc went to black screen when i ran alkisecurom crashed so i reset it and after that i loaded my pc and it would not let me do anything ie go into my docs my computer control panel etc so i had to format it thanks alot

[Muyfa666]

Yea, u know cracks don't come with a warranty. Deal with it.

[chuubaka]

Yea, u know cracks don't come with a warranty. Deal with it.
So Muyfa666 were you able to fix the problem with button presses lagging like 5-10 secs with the method for v1.1? It does it for me, so why aren't more people in here complaining about it? The game is still uplayable for me (v1.1).

The reason I want to play the game with the patch is b/c i'm getting all kind of crazy glitches and stuff. Like towards the beginning of the game with the cutscene at the bridge the guy hair and hands are blue and various other textures not rendering right. My graphics card is a X1900xt. Also saw the same problems (guy with blue hair) on a nVidia 6800 as well. Another possibility is that the game's image file is corrupted.

Admiting to having pirated the game? Bad move.

Yes, it works perfectly!

Thanks! :)

Anyway. Seems the bad texture renders, artifacting, crazy blue hair on that one guy are common problems after further reading in thre forum. This is one the most unpolished glitchy game releases in recent memory. sheesh

Can anyone confirm that this v1.1 patch addresses any of these issues?

[Darclite]

Btw getting big lagg while using that crack thing unplayable dont know why... keyboard and mouse lag like hell grafic works perfect

Read the Forum Rules!

[d3rd3vil]

I had a problem yesterday too ^^ I pressed a key (e.g. w to run forward) then I looked at Lara and she moved without doing sth.
It was like automatic gameplay!

What the fuck happened? Bull Patch?

[Muyfa666]

Start the v1.1 patched game as described before in this post. Press Ctrl+Shift+Esc when the nvidia logo plays (this gets you to the desktop). Ctrl+Alt+Delete to start the task manager. Go to the processes tab and right-click on trl.exe with the mouse. Set the priority to Normal.

Now back to the game and play like a madman.

You will probably have to do this everytime, I don't know how to permanently change priority for a .exe.

[Blade Uk]

No... it's even more simple. You don't need CureROM (cause the current version won't work and the future version is not available until yet). The thread from the CureROM forum is only where i've got that idea from...

Cheers Tom, works like a charm although i still cant play with the next gen content enabled because i get a fairly sluggish frame rate :(

[Talus]

Yeah, it seems as if Tomb Raider Legend is automatically set to run at 'High' priority level.

For people running Alkisecurom, there is no way that I know of to set the priority AND launch the game with Alkisecurom at the same time.

If you want to use the original disc in the drive, try the following (and editing in the directory you installed to:
cmd /c start /Normal "D:\Games\Tomb Raider - Legend\trl.exe"

[pollux_master]

Mr. Keller,

Thank you very much! Works fine for me here... Controller issues solved, improved perfomance with my 7800gt and... what a great game!

Seriously, i think i'm in love with Lara... and again, thanks to Mr. Tom Keller!

Excellent work. Keep it ALWAYS up.

:D :) :D :) :D :)

[HeDbAnGeR]

I had the lag aswell, so i decided to close my logitech setpoint program and it worked flawlessly after that. will try that again later.

[Talus]

It is still running in High priority mode...but now you are not relying on any background applications for your input so you won't notice any problems.

[rui_tecedeiro]

It doesn't work for me :(

I already tried with the new images that appeared on the GCW site, both of them, but every time i try, an image of a little cd appears on the screen for about 5 seconds, and then a message box saying that it detected a problem with a disc emulator software.

Of course, i am using the AlkiSecuRom.

EDIT: Ok, it worked. BUT:

I had two emulated drives, 1 for Battlefield1942, and the other for Tomb Raider. With the 2 of them, it didn't worked, but when using only 1, it worked. Go figure..

[HeDbAnGeR]

the game is still locking up.... patch didn´t help me a bit, so leave it if you don´t need it for controls.

[Aion]

i've got a small problem and i can´t seem to find any answer to it anywhere. :( since you already got the game(tomb raider legend) running i hope you can help me.
i downloaded the maxi image of the game and mounted it on daemon, now the thing is that the aplication icons such as autorun and setup don't appear!!! well they appear, but they don't ahve the lara image, just the plain old white square. and when i press any of them a dos like black window appears and disappears immediatly. this happened to the mini image of the same game and to the image of path of neo.
i tried with alcohol and it's the same effect. this never happened to me, and i found it to be very strange because a while ago i downloaded lotr: battle for middle earth 2 and everything worked out great.

please help me!!!

[weston]

The patch and mini image+ blocker work well for me and much better framerates on next gen settings- now playable with a 6800. The 1.1 patch is essential if you want next gen.

[Zulu]

@Aion
It's a mini/maxi image. Only TOC + some sectors are present, so most icon symbols are gone as the data is not present. This usually occurs with every mini/maxi image and it doesn't avoid gamestart. So what's the problem at all ?

[Joe Forster/STA]

@Aion: Read the FAQ. You cannot use the image to install or run the software from it!

[Kenny2K]

There was a nodvd crack released by a group named PROViSiON yesterday.
Is anyone able to get this and upload it? would be really nice..

[Joe Forster/STA]

thx

it doesnt matter if i get off the other devices.
before i had virtualcd 7 ,when threre stands this massage ( see below)

knows somebody, if there is a driver especially for nividia 6800
for the bad "next generation content"?

[Maxybo13]

Anyone got any idea for this this prob i'm having.

Games is patched to 1.1, using 4.03 DT with the latest image file, the prob is using this prog "AlkisecuRom" the dll file is there, when i run the prog it asks what exe file i want to run ect, but then nothing it just does nothing, i have tried rebooting, redownloading the file but just the same nothing happens. :confused:

Prob me being thick but any advice is much appreciated :D

[Muyfa666]

Someone mentioned that a group called PROViSiON released a crack for 1.1. Can anyone confirm if this is true?

[caki]

Probably true. They crack the activemark exe's from trygames.com or some other sites, and these work with the CD Version of the games. Cheap way to make cracks in some people's eyes, but to me a crack is a crack, may it be loader, inline, rebuilt, partial, different protection levels etc....

Here is a link to one of their NFO's to give you an idea of what I am talking about:

It won't take until 2016, it will take until a cracker decides to crack Starforce without fully rebuilding the game, but taking shortcuts. If you want to fully rebuild SCCT, well, good luck with that :)

[Dave-ros]

I've been waiting with baited breath for a fixed No-DVD EXE for version 1.1 (SecuROM being excrutiatingly slow and 1.0 having the bug with control definitions), but unfortunately on my computer Deviance's 1.1 fixed EXE crashes every time I fire the grappling hook at something hookable, or even look at a hookable object in manual aim mode!

If it makes any sense, the error seems to occur at 0x001729a9 (according to Event Viewer). And yes, I'd previously patched the game to 1.1 ;)

[mrmagoodood]

i'm having the same issue as dave-ros, whenever i fire the grappling hook at something the game crashes to desktop. does anyone know how to get around this? or has anyone figured out how to make the game work using curerom 2.

Same here

[Badspot]

I am unable to run Tomb Raider - Legend v1.1 on 2 out of the 3 computers in my house. Using v1.0 is not an option because 1.1 is what came on the disc. I've tried using the original disc, both mini-images, the maxi-image, an image I made myself, DT 4.03, alkiSecuRom, cureRom 1.3, cureRom2.0, the 1.0 fixed exe and the 1.1 fixed exe. I have even tried disabling my dvd-rom drives. I have not tried physically unplugging them as that does not seem like a viable solution to me.

The 1.1 fixed exe is the only thing that would even get the game to run, but as others have pointed out it crashes when you attempt to use the grappling hook.

What are the chances of a fixed fixed exe being released?

On my main computer, even the fixed exe still crashed. What I had to do was copy hid.dll from the working computer's c:\windows\system32 directory and put it in my tomb raider directory. This particular issue probably has something to do with my unusual game controller configuration.

Yes, same problem.

yes same thing !
the fixed eXe 1.1 no DVD don't run correctly , crashes with grappling hook !
but the original 1.1 exe works with with the mini image and the "alkisecurom" loader on my system (intel p4 cpu) without any bug ...

Excellent news -- but since the file's got the exact same size and date as the previous copy, I take it the problem was down to file corruption at the Rar-ing stage?

Yay, I can play it without SecuROM taking ages, and stopping my animated cursors from animating! \o/

No. As DEViANCE stated in their NFO:
Repack notes:
We forgot to remove a securom check. Sorry for the inconvenience.
So (as far as i know) changing some code do not necessarily change the file date. And the file size has to be exactly the same (cause this has something to do with internal crc checkings)...

[angel-TDw!]

patching a file is merely changing the code int he file.... or some bytes..

so no file size change takes place......

if its unpacking, then only file size change takes place......

if u compare both the files with hex editor, then u can find the difference

in both the files,,,,,,

thanx
