Star Wars: Empire At War running with image

[sprousa]

Finally I got it to work for me...

Here is what I did.. first of all I had the problem, that even after a reinstall the sweaw.exe file was missing in the gamedata folder..

I googled sometime and found it here.. It seems to be a fixed .exe file

Version 1.0 :
http://www.securom.com/support/custo...t129/sweaw.zip
Version 1.2:
http://www.securom.com/support/custo...t154/sweaw.zip

I used the 1.0 version. I guess the 1.2 is for the game if updated... Not sure though, since I d/l 1.0 and I am using the 1.0 version of the game.

Then I downloaded Deamon Tools 4.0.3.... after getting the 110 mb Miniimage..

I mounted it using all options on "On"... Then I downloaded the SecuRom from the link posted somewhere before... Opened it, used the .exe file from above to start and it worked... No problems at all using this method..

I have the double CD version, not the dvd version.. Got it as to blindwrite4 images...

Oh and dont hesitate to use the sweaw.exe if its missing in your folder.. It is indeed a german page, but I also have the english version of the game..

It might be, that the miniimage only works with the CD version of the game.. Not sure though.. A friend of mine has the game on dvd.. I will test that later this week.

Wow and another thing. I installed it on the pc of my friend.. If you try to start the game by using the sweaw.exe it tells you "Emulator detected" and will not run.. Guess thats what SecuRom is there for.
