The Only Sacred Plus English No-cd Fixed Exe Thread! Do Not Open New Ones...

[ancient78]

i have done ALL the things in this forum and megagames forums...
1-i installed the game and then patched it to the international 1.8*****
2- after patching the game i changed the sacred.exe to sacred .org (and i was sure it wasnt sacred.exe.org) so even this step is right.
3- i tried the slickman english patch copying the sacred.exe and the caf.dll and DIDNT copy the sacred.org AS i already have it from the original patched sacred.exe
4-i deleted the sacred.exe line from the ckfile.txt
5- and when i start the game it starts normaly and i chose a character and then the SCREEN fade to black.
6- i uninstalled it and installed the game AGAIN and done the same process from step 1 till 2 and i tried the chez crack AND also the thirds time i tried the bountywarrior crack in megagames and ALL ended up having the black screen GRRRR!
i have done every thing i have read in the forums as u can read from my step....so AM I missing something? or how i can solve this? plz any one help me coz i am REALLY fed up....and by the way this is not only me having that problem ...i have like 30 of my friends around the world having the same problem.
thanx for any help in advance
