Star Wars: Empire At War running with image

[Private-Cowboy]

Nope, didn't work with Alcohol created image either. It takes longer (like 10secs with Acohol image instead 2secs with UltraISO image) but "emulator detected" message still pops up.

How to fix that? How did you do it exactly? I tried max dpm and still not working. Please help...

And by the way, the protection is Securom.

Ahm...do you mean the dpm measurement in alcohol? max dpm is unprecise, try to use the slowest method of measurement(1x) and uninstall alcohol and other programs with virtual drives (not Daemon Tools!) after creating the image. Maybe this will help but like I said, it worked on MY system...

Ok, I'll try a slow dpm. The problem is whenever I mount the image that message pop up. Even if I run the original DVD and Alcohol and Demon still running it works. So those emulator programs are not the problem per se. Either my created image is not good enough or Securom detects Dtools even when using that Pr0t.St0p. But I must say I saw an "improvement" when using the Alcohol image over the UltraISO image, it took a long while before EAW finally said the emulator message. Maye slowing down dpm does the trick.

By the way, what version of EAW are you running? US one?

Edit: Scrap the last one, saw you're in Germany. I'm too atm that's why I got a german version, crappy enough it's not multilanguage.

Nope, still doesnt work. Either I get "emulator detected" or "security module could not be activated" (when I hide the emulator manually using restrictions in the reg database). Well, time to wait till a working image or crack and play with DVD.

What protection is now used? Securom oder safedisc? Could someone scan the game?

Hiya guys,
It might be an idea for those having problems with emulator & similar messages to use device manager to disable thier physical CD drives before using Pr0t.St0p.
This has worked for me with every securom game I've tried. (Emulator detected & security module could not be activated are Securom messages)

Disableing the drives via device managerl? Neat idea, trying that now. Never had to do that with Securom (like Republic Commado or others) but worth a try.
