woahhhh nice caps :P


Best speak in Lower case, many see CAPS as offensive and shouting

[PRETORIAN GENERAL]

do you want to play the game or you want to share your ideas about CAPS

[DABhand]

Was curious if the guy had a mini-image or the full image.

Im guessing you have both correct?

[Pulsar]

Pretorian, I just tried that in Alcohol 120% and it didn't work.

I get the same 'cd not found or authonticated' message. Are there any options that should be enabled?

EDIT: And I'm not even going to bother with antiblaxx, from what I've heard it royally screws over your cd drives...

[Comothinon]

I've had no problems with Anti-Blaxx. I'm guessing that the people who's system it messed with probably used the Delete Entries method instead of the Hide Entries method. Anti-Blaxx states quite prominantly that the Delete method is 'more dangerous'.

Or maybe I'm just using it wrong. =P

[caki]

Yeah, but by default it deletes the entries when you start it up. Go figure

Hi all!

For two days I've tried in vain all possible NO-CD solutins described here. I've mounted two different mini-images on a numerous CD emulating software. Have delited and renamed CD check.exe etc. etc. tec, but nothing worked.

Yesterday I decided to try one more time.... AND IT WORKED! Even more, I think I know what was causing it.

When the game lounched my firewall software went up asking if it should allow W40K:WA to connect to internet. Naturally I've pressed no. It totally makes sense, because Doom 3 expansion had similar protection.

I'm not sure it it is _The One_ solution for problems that lot of you are having, but certainly it is woth to try. If you don't have firewall, just disable or plug out network connection.

Hope that helps someone!
