Exclamation Anyone trying to get Fahrenheit to run Read This!

Okay I downloaded the game using Bit Torrent and I downloaded the mini image to use with the Tetris Emulator from GameCopyWorld.

I had downloaded an .iso of the game so I burned that to DVD and installed the game and then removed the DVD from my drive.

I think that is the problem... You have to leave the copy of the game in your DVD drive, AND have the tetris running with the mini image (.tdf file) loaded.

I am running the game fine this way... I know it's pain to have to have the disc in, but maybe somebody will make something soon so we don't have to, but until then just try leaving the copy in your DVD drive while you have the tetris with the mini image mounted.

I noticed that the tetris thing did not say Active until I put my copy of the game disc in.

Hope this helps some of you.

Matt

@IndyMage: Do you get the same error, using the original disc (no cracks/images) ?

Fahrenheit crashes at start

[Sorry, english is not my native language.]

Hello,

i have some problems: I bouhgt Fahrenheit, it works fine. Then I made an backup and use TetrisEmu. Everything fine.

Now I am for some days not at home, I live for some days at a friend. But I want to play Fahrenheit and I want to show the game to my friend.

I took the backup with me, I dont want to take the original with me.

I Installed the game on one of his computers, installed the tetris-Driver and reboot: The game crashes at the start! Windows tells me "fahrenheit.exe hat ein Problem festgestellt und mußte beendet werden" ( its a german windows - translation: "fahrenheit.exe has an problem and must be stopped.")

We tried it on an another computer (friend of the friend), there it works fine. The only difference I know: one computer has Windows home (there it works) and the other windows prof (there it does not work). Fahrenheit demo works an all the computers fine.

Have you any idea, what can be wrong?

What you have done and are trying to do is illegal! The EULA (End Users License Agreement) states you can only install the game on one computer at a time! And that computer must be the holder of the original Disc!
You will not get any help from here as we do not support Warez or Piracy!
You have now been banned from futher using these forums!

First of all: In Germany EULAs are not relevant. The only relevant thing is the german written law.

Second: Nobody can play the game on my computer at home, because the DVD is in a closed cabinet.

Third: I can phone my brother, to deinstall Fahrenheit on my computer at home. Then there is really no problem with the law.

But: The problems with MY backup of MY original bought DVD are not away!

And, there is the great chance, that in future I will change my computer. I don not want, that in future I have the same problems with a new computer.

So, I ask to all here, who have no problems to help a person, who has problems with the backup of their own bought(!) DVD: What can be the answer to my problem?

Ah, can you tell who is talking such a ****? I install the backup of my original to play the game by myself, but this schould not be allowed to do on an computer which is not my own? Really not.

Are you really able to say to me, that problems with MY backup of MY original are a question of Warez oder Piracy!?!?

Ok, firstly lets break this down!

Quote:

You say you bought Fahrenheit, NOT your friend!
You also say you made a backup, you use TetrisEmu and everything works fine!
So why the need to test it on your friends computer? There is no need! You know it already works!
So what you are actually trying to do is come up with some lame excuse for us to help you install 'your' game onto someone else's computer so they can play it for free!
So regardless of what the EULA laws are in Germany you are still trying to supply your friend with a free game! True?

No!

As I said:

Quote:
Now I am for some days not at home, I live for some days at a friend. But I want to play Fahrenheit and I want to show the game to my friend.
So, there are two reasons for my question here:

1) I am not at home, but I want to play the game! When my friend decides to play the game too, he really has the money to buy it for some Euros at ebay. But in the moment, I want to play the game! And - of course - I want to show the game to my friend. This is not forbidden, or?

2) When the game or TetrisEmu does not work on the computer of my friend, there is a great chance that it will not work on a new computer of mine (as I said, I want to by a new one in the next future). That is something I would not be happy about. So I try to understand why it does not work at the computer of my friend.
