Titan Quest (Use this thread only! Do not start another Thread!)

[Optimummind]

This is what I did to start the game but the game crashed in 5 minutes:

(1) Downloaded and patched TQ to v1.11 using the v1.08 to v1.11 patch.

(2) Loaded the mini-image #3 from GCW to Daemon Tools virtual drive.

(3) Turned DT off saying "no" when it asked me if I wanted to leave the emulation on.

(4) Copied asr v1.2 to the Desktop, renamed the file to "explorer.exe," and ran the game.

(5) The game ran, my saves and character were there, and I started the game.

(6) At first, everything ran well--no problems with graphics, sounds, whatever.

Then, in about 5 minutes when I'm in the middle of a fight, the game crashes to the Desktop. When I tried to restart the game again using the same method, my saves were corrupted.

Anticipating this kind of outcome, I had a backup of my save games, thank goodness.

Guess I'll have to either play off the original disc or wait for a v1.11 crack.

i just finished one and a half hour of playing without crashing, so i guess "my" solution should do the trick...
here it comes:
- deinstall all that stuff! deinstall titan quest, deinstall cure rom, deinstall win-xp! (just kidding, keep xp!) don´t worry about your saves, i deinstalled a couple of times but my chars are still there!
- get yourself the latest daemontools and mount your tq-file
- install tq
- go into your games/titanquest (or whatever dir!) and rename the "videos" folder into whatever you like (skips the fu---ing non-skippable intro!)
- get yourself this "securom-loader 1.2" and put it anywhere you like EXEPT into the titan folder!
- rename this "asr.exe" into "explorer.exe"
start asr, choose "titan quest.exe" from your game dir and have fun!
easy, eh?




oh... i see...... forgot the cruicial part! the patch! do not, i repeat: DO NOT use the ingame updater! get yourself this 1.01-1.11 patch and patch manually!!!
- patch it!
start asr, choose "titan quest.exe" from your game dir and have fun!
easy, eh?

this works just fine for me, i played all my former chars and got this nifty little "ver. 1.11" in my lower right corner of the startup-screen!

i hope i did a fair job explaining this in a foreign language and also hope all of you can enjoy this game...

tried it -.-!
getting error 1000 (insert original tq disk)

[snagglypuss]

here is more info for my problem (error 5000: conflict emulation software)

I am using Pr0t.st0p and newest asr.exe. asr.exe is renamed explorer and is outside of game directory. compatibility mode is win98. tried mounting mini image through alcohol 120 and also through DT 4.03. i have uninstalled antiblaxx and used the registry fix to get rid of its problem. i have no other anti security things installed except for dvddecrypter. emulation settings in DT and alcohol are all turned off.

i hope for a fixed exe someday soon .

[WebSurfer80]

Mount Mini-image in Daemon (I used Mini-Image #2),

and either use CureRom Loader (Get it HERE)

For more information on how to used CureROM Loader Go HERE

Or

AlkiSecuROM (Get it HERE), it works just like ASR (I think it's a modified version of ASR), But It works.

Both Worked Fine With Me. No Crashes.



Cheers.


P.S.: I Didn't use any Compatability Mode.

[snagglypuss]

I get further than I've gotten before I think, but now it detects DT and tells me I can't start the game using DT.
I made sure to turn all of its emulation settings off, exit DT, and use Pr0t.St0p, but it still detects DT 4.03HE...

[kokonut]

Just email reloaded he might be able to make a new no cd patch.


[email protected]

looks like his email..wish new no cd was out too looks like a pain to make 1.11 work....

Well my game is crashing every time i use a portal =\

This is with version 1.11

other than than, no known bugs found

[onizzy]

This is a little unrelated to the topic at hand but has anyone been able to play the reloaded version of tq online? currently I have the tq iso mounted using alcohol and am playing 1.01. I tried the reloaded update to 1.08 and it doesnt work so I'm stuck with 1.01.I will give a cookie to anyone who can give me directions or point me to the proper forum on how to update it properly or play online

I followed the link above to download AlkiSecurom and ran it with Bender's mini-image mounted through DT v4.03. After mounting Bender's mini-image, I disabled all emulations and closed DT.

I then ran Alkisecurom and started TQ v1.11. Unlike with the CureROM method (which would start the game but crash within 5-10 minutes), TQ ran and it ran well. I played for about 30 minutes until I exited the game, not the other way around. =)

Thx for the tip, WebSurfer.

Your Welcome.

CureROM Loader works just as well.

[snagglypuss]

I tried your method again today, WebSurfer80, but still I get error 6000.
It tells me to unmount, close DT, and try again with original.
I have all emulations turned off, have closed DT, and tried it with and without Pr0t.St0p hiding.

[hexum]

i can verify that 1.11 does work with the method outlined in post #181

flawlessly!

now.. on to waiting for the 1.15 crack/method

[iriss]

There you go:

Upgrade to v 1.15 (Windows XP)

Uninstall your Titan Quest. Delete the Titan Quest file and re-start Windows.

1. Install Daemon Tools (Daemon Tools Core Files (required) and Start Menu Shortcuts)
2. Right click Virtual Daemon Manager in Task Bar
3. Click Virtual CD/DVD Rom
4. Click Device 0: …..
5. Click Mount Image
6. Direct into the quest directory Titan Quest
7. Click Titan Quest.B5T
8. The Game should now open the Install page
9. Install Game as normal, entering the Serial number
10. Unmount the virtual Drive from Daemon Tools (right click Daemon Tools – etc. - Un-mount)
11. Apply Patch v1.01 to v1.08
12. Run Patch v1.08 to v1.15
16. Unpack the Mini-Image 2. This can be downloaded at GameCopyWorld (only use the Image
#2 NOT #3 as this gives you the black screen after the games Intro)
17. Unmount the huge TQ ISO and mount the TQ mini-image.
18. Run CureROM (I use v2033)
19. Click Next, Application Settings: Application: choose Titan Quest, click Next, Image Mounting: choose: use Daemon Tools, click Next, Click Next, Save, Next.
20. Use the new Application Icon on your desktop to start the game. Keep the Mini Image mounted.
21. Enjoy the Game!

I had no crashes so far!
