Dismemberment in Prince of Persia: TTT (European)

[Anti669]

It seems as though the EU version of this game has all the gore cut out... there's still blood, but no flying heads

I was just wondering if anyone had found a solution to this, or if anyone could help me figure one out.

I'm thinking simply changing the game region might do it. The following appears at the start of POPData.bf:

[General]
Language = English
Region = EMEA

and the value of the registry key

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Ubisoft\Prince of Persia The Two Thrones\1.00.999\Product Release

is set to "Retail EMEA"

Changing EMEA to US might solve this (though if someone with the US version could let me know what your region's called, that'd be great). The problem is that I can't edit POPData.bf...
It seems the game won't start if the "Date Modified" is changed - open it, save it, close it, and PoP won't run.


If anyone can help, or has any other ideas, let me know.


EDIT: I don't think "Date Modified" is the problem... I changed the timestamp back to that of the original, and it still doesn't work...
If anyone can suggest what else might have changed by simply opening and saving, I'd love to hear it.
