I've tried all of which you described already and none of it has worked.. I just reinstalled, downloaded the flt crack fix and it doesn't work..

I have no idea what there's left to try.. I can't get any driver, patch or crack combination to work...

roflmax try using the v1.1 mini-image - load with Daemon Tools 4.10 and use YASU to avoid blacklist (remember to save YASU to DT folder and run it from there)

I've tried searching for a mini image, can't find it anywhere?

GCW has one.

Even with the mini image it doesn't work... it just shows the silouette of a window for a second and then closes... this is 100% fucked up.

Does it work ok with your original roflmax?

Make sure the entire game folder has been deleted after uninstalling, it may have left your savegames and config info there!

I have made sure whole the folder is gone, I've also removed the .reg files for the game and the patch.

V1.2 patch is out. Does it fix anything important?

The patch fixes the "NAT traversal problem" - people behind NATs are now able to see servers. - from gamershell

Ok, so nothing really if you use the crack, since I guess the game does only work online with disc inserted?

Good question. I don't play online - only in LAN with known people.

It seems the update 1.2 updated the protection (SecuROM 7.34.0014) and removes the CDKey verification - see here http://www.fileforums.com/showthread.php?t=82375

confirmed working with 1.02 patch and daemon 4.06 and yasu and TimeShift v1.0 [ENGLISH] No-DVD/Fixed Image at gcw

Hello. Lucky you!. Not working here using DT 4.10 + Yasu 1.4.7080, with both 1.0 and 1.1 images at gcw :(
