Do you have a 64 bit CPU by anychance?

Another Variable in the Equation...
 
I've got the DVD version of the game, but the Spanish version one. I've tried everything u all posted here: cureROM, Alcohol 120%, DT, AntiSecuROM, and nothing worked for me. I only get it to work once, but i can't make it again. Is it possible that the guys of Lucasarts had put another protection in the Spanish version? I don't want to uninstall my Alcohol or my DT for just one game, as i use them a lot, although the game was a little bit expensive :p . Still no news of a noCD or noDVD fix? Wanna playyyyy!!! :D

Empire at Wars with Pr0t.St0p!
 
I found a way to run the game without CureRom!
Try to use Pr0t.St0p! v1.0! Hide the virtual Roms! Then if you start the game it will be a message: "Original disc could not be found or authenticated." Dont worry, just try to start it again, and again! I can start it for 3-4 times!
Good luck!

Why yes I do. Why do you ask?

All my problems seem to be fixed after some late night tinkering. So the game works without the disc and my computer seems normal.

I think its CPU vs Securom_loader problems. I have an AMD 64 also so must be that.

If none of the methods work, it's possible that your image is bad. Try downloading the mini-image.

Magmaros 24-02-2006 15:52

really, how hard would it be for someone with the mini-image to split it into 2 45 meg files and up em :( soooooo needed

der_nevs 24-02-2006 16:21

Errormessage ???
 
I don't get an errormessage like "original cd not found" or " emulationsoftware detected". I get "A required security module can not be activated".
I'm not sure is this a standard errormessage means "You little a**hole put in your legally bought cd of EAW" or is there another prob with the installation or sth.
Now it's important for me to know if can I solve the prob with the solutions posted in this thread or.....what else I have to do

I don't know how long this will stay up, but since it's supposedly legal, I don't think they will have any problems.

File is hacked up into 20 pieces at just under 5 megs each. Use the links and don't just change the number of the download, since not each of the files was continuously uploaded.

Thanks mate for uploading this. i was wondering how did you do that?

:) Use cureRom 1.3.1 and deamontools 4.03.
:) I work good for the dvd version.

Eh??


You should read the whole thread and what I was talking about, I was talking about windows performance issues while after using SecuRom_Loader..

Crossbow2112 25-02-2006 07:31

meh. I'd link to a torrent here, but all the trackers I use are either on warez sites, or would reject this as being warez itself.

kid_t 25-02-2006 11:38

Got it to work
changed my image drive to the d:/ drive

Slon 25-02-2006 13:01

I think the site died :(

Anyone else want to try another host?

This works... i've tried everything else with no avail (CureRom - cureRom Lite etc). This is the only thing i've used that has worked flawlessly - thank you :)

Cornellian 25-02-2006 15:25

I wonder what I am doing wrong. I've followed every piece of advice written in this thread, save for physically disabling my drives. I used DT 4.03 (even tried 3.47 out of hope), CureRom 1.31, CureRom Lite, Prot.Stop, SR7.Stop, S4Hide(just in case), AntiSecurom, I've downloaded the mini image and mounted it instead and I've removed any traces of StarForce from the system by their own removal tool.

Yet I still get the "a required security module was found up in your ass" message. If that matters I use Windows Media Edition, not XP home or pro. Lucas Arts' technical support is not really a support and now I am unable to play the game I pre-ordered!! This is in a word bull...

Any ideas what I should do (aside from waiting for a NoCD patch of course) would be appreciated...

You should probably reinstall the game. Use DT4.03 and make sure that the only virtual drive you have on your system is the one (must be the only Virt drive) there is the one that DT will use. Follow the instructions of the curerom tool to the letter. Oh, and make sure you are using an uncorrupted downloaded ROM. Also, removing starforce is not a good idea, since the games flat out won't run without it.

Cornellian 25-02-2006 15:49

Hey Slon, thanks for giving me a hand... Yeah, the only virtual drive I have is the DT's, but I do have a drive to read all those memory cards & etc. so the drive letters are full up to K, with Deamon taking G; but I guess that shouldn't be a problem...

What did you mean by having an uncorrupted downloaded ROM? And when I re-install the game, should I mount my image with DT all emulations on, or would that change anything at all?:)

By the way, the company that makes Starforce protection says that any time you run a game that uses SF the program will automatically install itself and then run the game, so that shouldn't matter.

Drive letter shouldn't matter. I have mine on L. Basically, make sure you mini-image was downloaded completely with no corruptions. Perhaps check it with

http://www.yourfilelink.com/get.php?fid=34434

?

Yes, have all emulation options on. Then, in CureRom, make sure when you edit the file, that all the emulation options are grayed (basically tells it to use whatever options DT has on).

As for SF, just make sure you don't uninstall it once game is installed.

lobetyl 25-02-2006 20:08

not working
 
I have tried everything to get this game to work.
I figure ill just wait to get the no-cd crack.
btw if you cpu is running slow run ad-aware.With mine it wouldnt let me into anything but now im fine i deleted that stuff and now i sit here waiting for the no-cd crack:D

Banzai Kamikaze 26-02-2006 00:46

Hi,

I can't provide help for the cd authentification errors, but I can help with those who have the "security module could not be loaded" problem. This has to do with files deemed eeviiil by the security of the game, and which are currently installed on the PC. I don't know which files are exactly to blame, but an issue to this problem is the following:

1) Log in to a new account (I use the guest account)
2) Mount your image file (I use the mini one, but the normal one should be ok) with Daemon tools v4.3 all emulation enabled.
3) Start the game with Securom loader.

Works 100% of the time.

Hope this helps !

Evrenin Hakimi 26-02-2006 02:07

%100 working for me :

1. Download Securom Loader 1.1 (updated 21/2/2006)
2. Mount mini or full image with dæmon tools v4.03, all emulations enabled.
3. run securom loader, choose sweaw.exe from data directory.

no need to account switch.

Cheeseloaf 26-02-2006 08:52

I used Game Jackal... Didn't use a profile map. During the "locate title" part I used sweaw.exe, NOT launchEAW.exe. For profiler mode, dynamic extended scan didn't work for me, so I tried Standard mode and it worked. Every so often, when I try to load the profile, it asks for the cd -- but then I disable the profile and try again and it loads the game up fine.

EDIT: Oh, and I have alcohol 120% and Daemon Tools installed with a virtual drive enabled and neither program is causing me a problem with Game Jackal loading Empire at War.

kid_t 26-02-2006 09:42

Cornellian - i had exactley teh same problem but then i changed my virtual drive (f) to the d:/ drive and it has worked every time now:D

using deamon with curerom latest update with eaw on update 1.2

Cornellian 26-02-2006 10:11

hi kid_t, how do you change the letter of the DT's drive to D? Can you help me on that?
I mean changing it to D while I still have a dvd drive on D..
Thanks...

kid_t 26-02-2006 12:27

hi err you can't have both on the letter d i followed the instructions on teh website bellow and changed my dvd drive to f and my image drive to d

http://support.microsoft.com/default...22120121120120

sprousa 26-02-2006 17:10

Hey all. I have read the whole thread now and it seems I have a different problem than all of you..

I installed the cd version and when trying to start, it tells mit the sweaw file is missing and indeed I cant find it in the gamedate folder...

How is that? what am I doing wrong?

lobetyl 26-02-2006 18:01

reinstall the game and it should be there:)
maybe you accidentally deleted it or something:D

cylaer 27-02-2006 02:33

mini-image
 
Where can i find the mini-image?
Someone know a link?

Sorry about my english, i´m brazillian

cylaer 27-02-2006 03:18

ok, forget my last post..
i found it here on forum...
i´m downloading it...

ride_hard 27-02-2006 03:51

It works well until, after the movies , it doenst load into the game , exception error ....

what can it be ?

cylaer 27-02-2006 04:59

dont work here...
i downloaded it, emulated on DT 3.47, DT 4.03. I used CureROM 1.3.1 and still not working. I tried use sd4hide and SR7.Stop_1.0, none works.

I get "A required security module can not be activated".

Someone have any idea to how fix it?


again, sorry about my english.

Joe Forster/STA 27-02-2006 05:13

Try Pr0t.St0p, too (it's the continuation of SR7.Stop). Have you tried all the tricks in the FAQ?

cylaer 27-02-2006 06:32

i just tried it "Pr0t.St0p v1.0" doesn't work too...

ok, let me see again:

i have the image of dvd version...
i installed by emulated image (DT 3.47, all emulations on)
i downloaded the mini-image "SWEAT_MINI_IMAGE.rar"
i emulated the file "EAW_1.BWI" (DT 4.03)
open the "Pr0t.St0p v1.0" clicked Hide...
close "Pr0t.St0p v1.0"
i try play.
now i get "emulator detected"


when i use the CureROM 1.3.1 (with DT 3.47), i get "the original disc cannot be found or identified"


and i discover now the CureROM 1.3.1 doesn't detect DT 4.03... strange..

what can i do?
