Fat also has a max file size of 2 gigs which could cause problems with games having huge .pak files.

I don't remember any game that had files such huge files... Most maxed out at 1-1.5 Gigabytes (Quake 3-4 engine'd games, FEAR etc.).

but it COULD have such files ;)

doesnt matter, back to topic.

@ickx: does it run with your dvd and uncracked exe?

There is one game that needs NTFS, Condemned - Criminal Origins:

CondemnedA.Arch00 = 6,679,167,735 bytes (6.21GB)

Amazing what rubbish facts people remember :)

Interesting!

I've just built a new system and my mate came up with his copy of DiRT to try on my PC to see if it works with the 1.1 crack, and it does!

He has:

AMD FX-51 2.2 Ghz, 2GB RAM, XFX 7950GT AGP, MSI Mobo.

I have:

AMD 2.8Ghz Dual Core, 2GB RAM, XFX 7950GT PCI-E, Asus Crosshair mobo.

So not sure why it now works?

I also tried Empire at War with v1.05 crack, and that now works too? The v1.05 crack would not work in my previous system, so what's going on with these crackers?

Not working here, don't know why :confused:

Same thing here.. going to try it on my old p4 2.66 if it doesn't work there either this crumpy dvd is going back to the stores

Dragunov/neliz does the original DVD work with the 1.1 patch? If it's only the crack that doesn't work then you can hardly take it back :)

Same problem here with both versions, 1.0 and 1.1
With or without crack, I get the same error.

My computer:
AMD XP 2400
1,5Gb RAM
NVIDIA 6600GT (has pixel shader 3.0)
ABIT NFS v2

WTF is wrong? Why some people can run the game and others not? Seems an stupid random error...

Game requires a SSE2 processor. AMD XP is not a SSE2.

* AMD K8-based CPUs (Athlon 64, Sempron, Turion 64, etc)
* Intel NetBurst-based CPUs (Pentium 4, Xeon, Celeron, etc)
* Intel Pentium M and Celeron M
* Intel Core-based CPUs (Core Duo, Core Solo, etc)
* Intel Core 2-based CPUs (Core 2 Duo, Core 2 Quad, etc)
* Transmeta Efficeon
* Via C7

F*ck

hi, has any1 got a cd key for DIRT? i'm totally new to downloading and installing games like this. thanks.

@g'-will: Banned, forum rule #1.

Damn !!! :eek:

LOL, guess people need to read the readme.txt files more often :) Still, doesn't explain why the 1.1 crack won't work on a mates AMD FX-51, that supports SSE2, but the original 1.1 does?
