Uninstall everything you're suspicious of, until the original game runs, without any crack and without any message about a detected emulation software. Then install back what you need but only what you really need. (E.g. Nero ImageDrive is completely unnecessary if you have Daemon Tools. Also, you may want to switch from Blindwrite to Daemon Tools Pro or Alcohol 120% as those two are better suited for copy protected games.)

I can seem to login and join a game online with the crack, that's weird...
MyTH
Yeah, I tried that a couple of days back, cnc3 still says that there is an emulation device, I even tried to remove Nero's ImageDrive, still with no success.
MyTHIf still present though BW got uninstalled:
- delete ezplay.sys in C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers
- delete registry key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Servic es\ezplay
- search registry for any leftovers of ezplay and delete them
If you're not familar with regediting please make a backup of your registry !

Yeah, that would seem to work, but I can go to online games anyways with the crack, so I won't bother with that right now :D.

thank you
Its so annoying when u download a 7+GIG game and it dosent work!!!
I have Kane edition English version 1.09. I have downloaded the 1.09 crack and replaced the .dat file in the correct folder. i try to start the game and it says candcgame.dat has encountered a problem and needs to close. Does the crack just not work? Has anyone had this game working with this 1.09 crack version? Also i have an AMD 1600+ 1.4 Ghz, 256ram, ati radeon8500 video card. I know that my vidro card meets the min requirements. Would not having min requirements with the cpu and memory cause the game to crash? Wouldn't it just run slow and i could put it on a lower resolution?
Best Regards.

Bad image.

i downloaded the latest patch (109) and now it is detecting the emulation software. anything i can do to make it not detect it? i am using Yasu and dt

thanks!!!!
oo thanx for this man :):)
Hello, I just got my Tiberium wars today. I am just looking for a straight answer to my question. Game is installed and updated to 1.09. So does the game work online with a no-cd ? And I either have to DL an image or create one from my disk ? I really hate having to keep a disk in my drive to play. I am just looking for a way around it. most games are a simple exe file or patch, but it seems like everyone is having issues with this game. I probly wont play online for a little while kinda new to the RTS genre. Thanx for any info to help with this.
for online playing you're generally advised to use a mini/maxi image instead of a no-cd (for obvious reasons...)
OK, I just read a whole bunch of post all over the forums here. very good stuff. I was wundering where can I get a mini/maxi Image file for TW ? I dont have the Kane expansion yet. Im gonna wait a couple of weeks before i order it. And if im gonna play online i just mount the mini/maxi with dameon. do I still need the no-cd .dat patch ? can i still play single player skirmishes/campaign with the mini image, or do i need to have the .dat patch for single player stuff, and the mini/maxi for online ? I know this sounds like alot of questions, but you guy's really no your shit. and I am trying to learn :)
EDIT* All have been able to find would be a torrent or possibly from a warez site or something.as far as image files go. I would be better off making my own, huh ? I have nero , alcohol 120 (probably a little older version tho.) Magic iso. think thats it what one is better for this. Im not as worried about disk space altho smaller is better.
torrent / warez = bad idea, you'll be out of here very quickly..
mini/maxi image of the game should be on gamecopyworld.. try searching for it.. using mini/maxi image means you don't need the no-cd...
i suggest you read the faq as it might help clear some of your confusion

For online play, you should not use a crack. A mini/maxi image is recommended. Also the original serial number is always checked.
Well, I used the no-cd .dat from gcw. Single player campaign worked flawlessly. altho the game did crash when i did a level restart just once. said somethin about a problem with cncgame.dat. But i think that was just my pc reacting screwy cuz i played for like 5 more hours after that. with multiple restarts, and it didnt happen again.
mm as for the mini/max image I did spend quite a bit of time searching for one but maybe im just not seeing it??
Im not goin for a ban. I do own the Game !! I havent tried playing online yet.
I'll search out for the m/m image some more.
Thanx guy's for being helpful.....
I'' Be Back (im sure haha)
EDIT* ok I think i found it all.

http://www.cdmediaworld.com/hardware/cdrom/cd_utils_8.shtml#Y.A.S.U for the YASU program.
now I should be able to get it working online :cool:
also I have dameon 3.47 not 4.08. is that a problem or do i need to upgrade? (never mind Yasu doesnt work with 3.47)(I DO have to use YASU for online play tho. right ??
I have used 3.47 for everything even supreme commander (altho just single player never online.) with no problems ever.
I dont mean to be a Pain in the Ass, but what would you guy's do without noobs like me..:D:eek::confused:
if you're using vista, do NOT use daemon 3.47, and yep yasu only works with 4.x i think (latest version that is...)..
for online play, basically if you can get the game running on your pc (without using a no-cd .dat file.. which is really an exe renamed..) using just the mini / maxi image and daemon / alcohol / whatever and the original exe, then you'll most likely (99.9%) be able to play online without any problems
Nice Got it all working with the daemon lite 4.3XX or whatever. and YASU. Didn't realize i need Yasu running even if im not playing online. But everything works great, I think the game runs smoother now also. even smoother than with the .dat patch. I wonder why ?
any way thanks for the help...
Now is there any way you could direct me to a how to mod this game. after playing it I find some things need to be changed to balance out the game play for me. and while there are some really good mods out there. most people have a different Ideas as to what needs to be changed... so I would like to create my own mod basically just concerning build costs, build times, and a few other things. thanks for the help again guy's...
Noob Here. Ive been around the site a bit but couldnt make heads or tails of it so i figured id post here and appreciate the help if any given.
Ive installed C&C 3 TW, in the C/Electronic Arts/C&C3/
there is an icon labelled ...CNC3.exe
Then theres a folder called RetailEXE/1.9 in which there is a file labelled
...cnc3game.dat
I have downloaded the NoCD/DVD Fixed EXE 1.9 Version. Have a couple of questions need answering please.
a) In the file which i downloaded from gamecopyworld, the .rar archive contains two files. One is an update which i dont need i think (correct me if im wrong), the other is ...cnc3game.dat.
Do i extract the cnc3game.dat in C/Electronic Arts/C&C3/
or
C/Electronic Arts/C&C3/RetailEXE/1.9
b) Can i extract the cnc3game.dat on my desktop and then copy and paste into the relevant folder, or do i have to extract it in the specified folder?
c) This question is derived from what 'Unohu69' wrote,
Unohu69...does your game run smoother in single player too when you have the mini/maxi dump? Have you worked out why the .dat file doesnt make it run smoother?
d) Finally just out of curiosity, the .dat file in the downloaded GCW file is is three times larger than the .dat already located in my CNC3 file. Why is that?
a) The crack comes with a .nfo file open it up in notepad to see instructions
b) You can copy and paste or extract it direct
c) cant answer that
d) the .dat file is in essence an executable, its been unprotected and unwrapped so its size has grown since then.
Thank You DabHand for such a precise and speedy response. The nfo file said this...
Instructions
Update with included update, copy our crack over then play.
The rest was a copy and paste of the bug fixes.
I wasnt sure what it meant so thought id post and check.
Thanks
BUT.....
a) WHere do i copy the .dat file? In the RetailEXE Folder or just in the main CNC folder?
ANSWER
Just copied it over the .dat in the RetailEXE file and it loads up. Havnt started a game yet but gonna assume it all works!
Thanks! This is bloody brilliant im absolutely loving this! Its so ace i love it! No CD/DVD woohoo!
Hello, i figure because the .dat file was larger then original maybe that took extra time to load ?? not really sure. I dont know anything about programing so out of my area.
i have had no problems so far playing single player. other than im stuck in Alexandria. playing on hard difficulty but i just cant seem to get past this level..
if you updated the original already fine just copy the .dat over the in the retail/1.9 folder.
second question tho. I bought my game opened from a online store, that said the game was never registered. however when i tryd to register it with EA they said it already was registered ?? and the wouldnt let me choose my user name. on one screen it said their was no user name like the one i chose, then it said it was already in use ?? even tried different variations with the same effect. i had to pick one of the suggestions the had for me to get it to move forward in the registration process.
if I contact EA what are my chances they'll give me a new key ????

The .dat file is larger because it has been uncompressed. (It runs actually faster than the original because the all kinds of shit that the copy protection contains is not executed anymore.)
EA has a bad reputation when it comes to (all kinds of) user support. If you think your key has been stolen (would be nothing new, unfortunately) and would like to get things straight then, by all means, contact them but make sure to have some proof of purchase (original box, manual, DVD, invoice/bill/receipt etc.) handy as well as your refrigerator stuffed with food for a few weeks...

Alright, I've read through this thread, and cannot find my issue specifically. I am not extremely computer literate, but I try.
I have installed successfully, and am using DAEMON Manager V4.08HE to emulate. I also overwrote the .dat file with the cracked .dat. When I go to play I get an error: 'Conflict with Emulation Software detected.'.
Any ideas?

Update Daemon Tools to v4.30.1 and try again.
go here http://www.cdmediaworld.com/hardware....shtml#Y.A.S.U for the YASU program. Download yasu run it before you start your game. it will make the game think your daemon tools is a real drive. I get the same msg when I forget to run yasu

I downloaded Yasu and updated DAEMON Tools. It fixed my first problem.
Now I'm getting a different error: 'Please insert the original disc instead of a backup.'
thank you very much for this

Command And Conquer 3: Tiberium Wars Nodvd Crack its working :)
Available @ GCW
what should i do or go to download the crack ??
Well, i have bought The game (not kanes edition). And installed it, but when i try to launch it, even with the CD in, it says i dont have directX 9 or above, or my grafics card is hardware accelerated, but i know none of that is true. Anyone got a clue?

You may not have it installed (which I doubt since the installer will update DX automatic)
Click here (http://www.systemrequirementslab.com/cyri/) and check if you have enough hardware to run C&C3.
I have in fact installed it, i have directX 11, and the only thing not passing in the test is hard disk space, but since i allready have it installed..

Direct X 10/11 development is something dead most games are still on dx 9 and even with it installed could get in problems running
Try installing this to see if fixes the problem
