Help With ToCA Race Driver 2

[god_mode]

Why is it that everyone offers work arounds instead of a solution for the problem? You guys are just as bad as the programmers. Make shifty software that is buggy or doesn't work on all platforms. Then instead of giving or providing a valid solution your instead just talk about work arounds and what people "should" do.

I run win2k, If it doesn't work and I tried to make it work then screw it. I'm not going to format and reinstall over some groups half assed crack that doesn't work on all platforms. I will however install vmware and install xp-sp2 and then run this game. Just to see if it works.

Are you paying anything to either members of this forum or the crackers making no-CD patches? Obviously, no. So why do you think you have the right for any kind of support here, for that matter? Don't demand, don't whine; rather, be happy and thankful if you get help of any kind.

By the way, have you noticed that, because of Starforce 3.x, currently there are only workarounds but no "clean" no-CD patches as before? But if you're as smart as you think you are, you'd better start learning assembly and the Windows API and making proper no-CD patch yourself!

How about this Joe, Here is my contrabution. intead of bitchin'!

Here is a walk through.

*reloaded* no/cd (RD2.exe)
XVI32 Hex editor

Open up the RD2.exe in the hex editor.

Then click search and find. Type in RestoreLastError into the text field. click search.

Then Edit>Overwrite String and type in SetLastError then click ok.

Now, STOP, and vary carefully look, you will see that it still shows rror at the end of Error. You want to click on the left in the hex area in the designated box for the firt letter that shouldn't be there. Then type in 00 for each letter that shouldn't be there. DO NOT DELETE THEM!

Now click search>find and click the hex string field. and enter in B1 B6 80 7C

Now replace these with 00 00 00 00

Now save the file as something other than rd2.exe . Then copy it into game dir name it back to rd2.exe after you have renamed the orignal.

Have FUN!!

SKUZZ YOU THE MAN!

I DO NOT KNOW IF THIS WORKS FOR XP SP1 EDIT: WORKS FOR XPSP1 AND XPSP2. I don't know about 98se or winme though.

Hi,

I have problems with my Reloaded version game. I could'nt install the 1.2 patch 'cause, I received this error message:"Applying MODIFY File Patch for 'GameData\cars\int.big'

error ept0036: Old File not found. However, a file of the same name was
found. No update done since file contents do not match.

----- Race Driver 2 Patch Finished -----
Error code: 36"

I tried to replace and copy the int.big, but its same as on the DVD. I uninstalled and reinstalled several times but I got same results.

Is it possible if this file in- my Program files -is modded already?

Please help!

Check the version number on the main menu screen, the patch will only patch v1.0 to v1.2.

[sasa74]

Unfortunatelly I could not check the main menu, because the game doesnot work without the patch. As I mentioned I use the Reloaded version and the GCW has the crack. I also tried the ver1.0 patch and still exist my problem.

Please help

thx
