Gears of War
 

Bought the game but Microsoft controls it especially window games live logon account to run it
Not sure what is going on but i dont want use windows game live or internet
Both nodvd on GWC doesnt seem to work especially its in spanish not english
Have run DVD that really sux cost me $100AU to buy should get money back
Anyhow is it possible to pass this windows game live logon
It is a XBOX360 console game and should be always
Microsoft sux at PCS games

You don't need to log into live! Just create a gamer profile and block access to the internet in your firewall, this will allow you to create a profile and play without logging into windows live.

Actually GoW is better to me on the PC than Xbox360 version.

Also the warez release that first came out made everyone install the Spanish version, the crack doesnt do this, are you not telling us something?

my one installed in portuguese, definately wasnt spanish, possibly a bug in the installer, dont know, was damned annoying though... then it worked on my other pc.. so we cant jump to conclusions about people having the warez release....

personally i thought the game wasnt *that* impressive, usual fart in a spacesuit hype from microsoft, like halo2....

I downloaded the crack for gears of war, but I cant seem to get it to work. I replaced the startup file with the one provided, but when i start the program it still tells me i need to insert the correct cd, please help.

maybe its a fixed exe and not a no-cd?
i unstalled, couldnt be bothered reinstalling to check for you (the game was dung imho.. and oddly enough took about 1000 times longer to install than to uninstall heh) maybe someone else can help..

Did you overwrite the file 'startup.exe' in the 'Binaries' folder?

Will it work on sm 2.0 graphic card?

@hule: This is your second post I've seen asking the same question. Please go to the web site of any game you're interested in and read the System Requirements.

why?
 

I have weird problems with my copies.
when I start a new campaign everything was Ok.
but when the loading screen pop up, 10 second later I bounced up to windows with an error massage that said "runtime error, file binaries/wargame-g4wlive.exe the application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in unusual way":confused:
how I'm supposed to fix this, please help me:(
thanks:)

Copies?

yup, since i won't use my original ( it's so expensive in my country so i don't wanna anything happen to the original copy, just made them as trophy ^^ ) made a copy of this game i got the rar. file in 2 parts, after I extracted it, install it use some crack from razor run it, voila!! keep bouncing me to windows because the wargear-g4warlive.exe aplication, please some one help me.
thanks a lot:)

Ok now I am suspicious of you!!

If I was to create a copy of one of my games I would not end up with a 'rar' file? :confused:

smell warez up here.
The game in your country - as in mine - can be expensive, but for install and setup is needed.
Instead of the copy, use your original to start playinf and then continue with the razor crack.

Nope, I already use my original copy as last resort eventhought i don't want to, but the result is the same, always bounced back to windows screen and with same massage, wargame-g4warlive.exe this apllication requested the runtime to stop it in unusual way.

Barry, any chance you can explain how to do this? When I tried it, it said that it couldn't sign into the account. Would appreciate any other details that you can provide :)

Go to your Windows Firewall or Whatever Firewall you have..

Look for the Gears Of War Entry, and Uncheck / Delete it, and it will not connect.

Mkilbride2511, thanks for the reply, but I'm well aware of how to stop the game from accessing the Internet. That's not the problem. I was wondering what the process was for actually creating an offline profile. In game, the option is never given to do so. What I see so far is the "Gamer Profile" at the bottom of the main screen, and when I click it, it gives me the ability to create a profile. When trying to do so, with denying access to the game to access the Internet, the game tries to sign in, fails, and takes me back to the screen to create the profile. What I wanna know is what I'm doing wrong... am I missing something? Any info would be greatly appreciated.

My main system is down unfortunately, and I can't remember exactly what to do as I'm using another PC temporarily and it won't run the game with 256mb RAM and a Ti500 64mb graphics card :)

I did click the Gamer Profile option and fiddle with the options there and got an account (I think) created, at least it let me play the game, and I never connected to the net!

No prob BarryB, I can wait till you get your main system back up and running (I know how that can be, it's a pain enough not having the ability to do the things you want cause the system you're on can't handle them!). Appreciate your help when you can give it, or anyone else if they've been successful at doing this :)

New NoCd
 

Hey, Im having trouble starting up Gears of War ever since the patch has been released. Replacing the 'startup.exe' with the crack thats available no longer seem to work, does anyone here know of another way to start it up without the disc?

Mounting the iso doesnt work even with all emulation settings on such as securom and safedisc (even with YASU), I beleive gears of war has a new version of safedisc.
Starting up the patched game with the old crack results in the game asking for the disc. Mounting the iso and using the original startup.exe results in an error asking to insert the original dvd disc. Mounting the game with the cracked startup.exe loads up the splash screen and game, but an error pops up telling you to double click startup.exe to play gears of war.

Ive been searching the net for a while to no avail, maybe its a matter of waiting for a newer nocd crack.

Does the game start up ok if you use your original disc ?

My dvd drive recently malfunctioned and Im still awaiting my new drive, it was a god send that there was a crack for the original version so I could continue playing, but since patching I can find no other workaround. I refered to the ISO because i always backup my games to a seperate drive, its something ive always done incase I lose my cd's. So yeah obviously I cant re-install the game so im stuck with the patched version.

Whenever you upgrade your PC, keep the old DVD drive so that you have backup hardware for such purposes. You see, in its current state, your request is against forum rule #1.

I have the same problems after patching the game to the updated version.

Penkster: Game startsup okay when disc is in drive.
But when I try to start with nodvd exe game crashes and you go back to destop after the Epic and Microsoft intro.

We all need to wait for a new crack then I suppose.

Gears OF War
 

I am writing this to find out what can be done about the game crashing. I have it for the pc. I have the nvidia 8800gtx with 746 ram onboard, 2gb memory, and a amd 6400+ processor with an AM2 slot and running vista. downloaded the patch and still having problems playing the game. I don't have a problem with no other game like Crysis, Timeshift, or even Call of Duty (advanced warfare). can anybody help. I don't even have a problem running Lost Planet. So, what can be done.

upgrade to xp

I'd have to agree with WardoggOne on this one :cool:

:D

Ja, ja! Upgrade to XP:D
If Microsoft releases the SP3, they might see how many people are buying Vista.
With the lifespan announced for only 3 years(they've announced the intent to release a new system in 2009), Vista won't make too many fans.
So we might be in 2009 on the same old XP:P

Oh, damn right, sir, you always gotta skip one or two Micro$oft operating systems (operating system versions? releases? upgrades?) to keep your sanity! :D (I went from MS-DOS 5.0 to Windows 98 then to Windows XP, with no fooling around between these...)

I'd say the operating systems released by Microsoft are divided in three categories: alpha, beta and bugfixes:D

Gears of War Title Update
 

Hey guys, I updated Gears of War with the latest "title update" that was released, and applied the latest NO-CD crack that Battery released (bat-gow1.rar), the game loads up just fine but it won't let me access the Guide or open the Profile list by clicking on it's tab or pressing F1 (Home button doesn't work anymore either). It also appears to have broken the game's menu, sometimes you can't press back or escape to return to the previous menu, other times the sound in the main menu completly stops...etc

I was just wondering if that's the case with everyone which means that this crack should be nuked, or is it just me?

First check the original DVD and patch work first, if they do it could be the crack!

already did, the original works fine, even before i applied the title update. However i need the NO-DVD crack because it's alot less troublesome.

yes i have been having troubles with the new 1.1 gears of war crack too.
for me it doesn't even start the game anymore.
hopefully someone will crack it properly next time/ hopefully there is a fix soon!!!

okey guys i need some help i install the game copy the crack and everything, but when the games execute its stay in the software update screen and thats is it i hjace left it over 10 m and bnothing any ideas?

Maybe, it's running an auto-update from its home server but it cannot access the Internet because of your firewall settings? More information, please! Also, try it without a crack first.

the problem is than it never ask for permision to access the internet now im going to run it with out the crack(but gonna take a while cause i have to reinstall it) aspecs of my machine (ati 9800, 768 ram, athlon 2500+, xp service pack 2, 1.83 ghz, these are also the minimun required)
