A new proper NoDVD crack by HOODLUM is already send to GameCopyWorld and will be available soon.

(I haven't tested it, because i don't have the game!)

Thanks for the info. It's up at GCW and appears to function as advertised.

Some posts above implied that there was no legal DVD version, this is not true, my UK version (from Play.com) came on a single DVD.

The recent history of this game, with multiple exe's being released is very interesting. But more interesting still would be a proper working no-DVD.

Edit: NB the hoodlum crack at first appears broken in battle mode, with the mouse refusing to scroll the battle camera. But holding down the LMB and moving the cursor to the edge of the screen "releases" it, thereafter all is well. Great Job Hoodlum !!!

Yep same problem here with the mouse

imperial glory: the aplication can´t be initialized
 

help me, please.
