WARNING TO THOSE THAT CLAIM THAT FIXED_CRACK NOT WORK.

Just download the latest patch version ( I think its 1.08) and then
apply the fixed dat file (download from gamecopyworld.com) to:

C:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\Command & Conquer 3\RetailExe\1.8


Watch out the path!!!!


Have a nice day guys!:D

Actually they need to download v1.07, then 1.08(1.08 it's a hotfix for 1.07 and doesn't have the improvements that 1.07 has - just check the size of the two patches). That's for the manual update...Then apply the v1.08 crack
If you don't have nothing against of updating online, you just click the update button and the EA should take care of updating, then apply the crack for 1.08...
Bye!

Interestingly, the 1.08 I downloaded, was 221 MB while the 1.07 was 199 MB, so it seems to be possible to find a 1.08 crack that includes 1.07. I updated directly from 1.06 to 1.08 and it created the 1.07 folders and files as well as the 1.08 ones.

i have a cracked dvd C&C 3 , but when i update or download patch file for it, my crack file is gone and its ask for me original CD, so i think the only good thing to do is to have an image file (virtual cd) for this game on Daemon tools or any else virtual tools. can any body tell me how i can get these image files please.

Goodbye, next time read the rules especially rule no.1

ohh ok hihihi im new here ;) thanks, by the way i find another forum give all download files

thanks.

Thank you for your post, as GCW shows that the rar file should have a EXE file inside it, reference:

C&C 3: Tiberium Wars v1.08 [ENGLISH] No-DVD/Fixed EXE 27-08-2007
ViTALiTY
File Archive [7.0 MB]
Play Instructions:

* Install the game - Full Installation.
* Apply the official C&C 3: Tiberium Wars v1.08 Patch.
* Replace the original CNC3GAME.EXE file with the one from the File Archive.
* Play the Game!

So, now I know I got the right patch and your instructions to correctly install it.

THANKS!

the fixed exe?
 

when i download the rar from gamecopyworld for 1.8 there is no exe in the rar. where can i get hold of it?

EDIT: oops just tried out of blue and it works! haha! thanks for help didnt know bout 1.8 til this forum

thx

it's a .dat file, not an .exe

I have done what you said, copied the fixed .dat file, but it doesn't seem to work.When I start the game I'm getting an error that windows had to shut it down, also I get an OUTOFVIDEOMEMORY error... which is very unlikely with my video card

Is the game working when you use your original disc without cracked files ???

Yes it was, before I updated it to 1.08 it was working

I have read everything thats in this thread but im still having soooo many problems lol to begin i have no idea how to install the patches so than to my understanding u have to install the DAT file thats inside the folder to retailexe folder in the games directory, which i did and nothing the game still asking me for a cd in order to run. Than i read that the DAT files are the EXE crack from there im even more lost :confused: so i tried changing the .DAT file to .exe and it turned into a exe icon with the command & conquer 3 logo so i placed it in the main directory taking out the original exe and tried running it and an error poped out even before the game loads. So than which patch do i use ?? theres a mentioning of the latest patch 1.8 which only comes with the DAT file where does that go into? and do i need to change the DAT into exe or i am doing it alllll wrong :o thanks for the help.

You overwrite the cnc3game.dat in your game installation directory with the cnc3game.dat in the crack package. What's so complicated about this?!

If you cannot follow a written instruction, there is no way anyone here can help you to get it. No offense mate.

I did just that and the error keeps coming up direct3d error with a huge list of dame.dat names:confused:

Look, install the game and the 1.08 patch then look for this directory:

C:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\Command & Conquer 3\RetailExe\1.8

and copy the cnc3game.dat from the 1.08 crack into this folder!!

Easy peasy!

Thats exactly what i did and i keep getting an error and a few of cncgame data files appear in a list before the game loads and it closes everything down. WTF :mad:

error:http://i181.photobucket.com/albums/x...S300/error.jpg

Is your hardware compatable with the game? Video Drivers up to date and DirectX?

... and have you tried playing the game without a crack?

my hardware is compatible with the game (ranned bioshock no probs) about the video updates im gona make sure they are all updated the direct x are updated to the latest.

this is another error i get : http://i181.photobucket.com/albums/x...300/error2.jpg

This time it doesnt mention direct 3d...

I updated my drives and the game loads but it quickly goes back to the errors n shuts down the game =\

"ranned"? omg

well maybe he's not native english.... true 'ranned' doesnt exist in english...
then again, you're from denver (supposedly), so i could start on americanisms... but i wont...(hope i made the point)....

I presume JJ is from Florida?
I guess you've already started on the Americans Tipp? lol

Its a problem with the .dat file thats causing this.

Reinstall the game, make sure your PC meets requirements for the game to be run (i.e. amount of RAM etc) and also if using a crack make sure you place them in the correct place as stated in the accompying .nfo file (which can be read with notepad/wordpad)

:eek: I used to bash Americans (jokingly) until Joe gave me a bollocking :D Don't think I'll join in with this one if you don't mind!

I reinstalled the game 3 times already made sure i put the crack (.Dat file) in the right place and my pc should totally be able to run this game i have 1 gig of ram so its ok for this game and i mean i played bioshock, battlefield 2142 no probs so i dont think is much of a pc problem more of the crack messing up. Isnt there a .exe crack out for this yet? i went to game copy world and all there is are crack fix patches....

The cnc3game.dat is the file that runs the game so that's the one you replace with the crack, no EXE file needs cracking!

Did you update the game manually or update via the auto updater? I think you need the 1.07 patch installed before the 1.08, either that or something is corrupt! Check yer HD for errors.

i downloaded the 1.8 official patch and from there i installed it. Ill try installing the 1.7 patch 1st n than the 1.8 hopefully it changes something :(
thanks for the help.

edit: The game loads than crashes after 10 mins of gameplay also sayin c&Cgame.dat error

I'm just visiting Denver from Africa :)

guys, wait some days and play with the orig. DVD...

i'll be sure: There will be a no cd patch very soon!

Yup, requests get deleted (along with "you're supposed to request that yet" answers to them so don't bother). Watch forum rule #6!

Edit: OK



And JJ from what your telling me and from experience is that you need to get a new Video Card. I use to have this problem but yeah get a new video card and it should fix the problem. :cool:

Oh yeah..... is there anyone who knows if the No DvD crack is out yet for v1.09... i have been waiting for a couple of days.... thanks guys

@RuNnin
Asking if someone is 'working on' is the same as requesting! NO Requests for 2 months please. Read the forum rules again!
We do NOT make the cracks at Fileforums, they are sent in by other members who find them elsewhere, so NO we do NOT know if someone is working on it.

@chris0012345
You could do with reading the Forum Rules as well! Its only been a couple of days, come back in a couple of 'months'!!

Just a question...I played the demo and it played fine without problems so how come the full game messes up :confused: and also i have ATI radeon 9600 series and in the system requirements states it works with that card and i mean i have been able to play very high demanding games with that card like bioshock,battlefield 2142,battlefield 2 etc....

ty

is it out?


Um. I dunno are you making sure your not changing the exe file. Because you have to put the new dat file into the retail for whatever patch you have not the exe.
