Sniper Elite <I got it!>

[Jumbomaster]

I play this game with my new drive and it spins all the time somebody "please fix the backup nocd" before my new rom wears out..lol

I see that atari is going with starforce as well..

the good days are gone forever....

I' m not a programmer.
I play Sniper Elite on a Windows ME System.
The GWC fixed exe doesn't work (yes, it's only for XP).

As The-S-Owl already wrote you must change 'RestoreLastError'
to 'SetLastError' with a hex editor.
I've done it and it works on my ME system.
I can play without the DVD.

I use code-genie (use google).

It's important that the end of the line looks like this:

....SetLastError........In (this is working)

....SetLastError....Initia (not working)

....RestoreLastError....In (original from GCW)

I don't know if this works also for 2k (but probably).

I am not sure about, but maybe it's necessary to install
Microsoft.NET Framework 1.1 to make it run.

I have tried but might have got it wrong...

i have framework installed and updated..

will try again ..per your instructions..if it works on me..it should work on 2k

thanx..
