C&C Renegade noCD patch problem

[Snafu]

I replaced the .exe with the one from the nocd patch, but whenever I attemp to start the game, I get this error:
The procedure entry point ?Detect_Bandwidth@@YAKKKHAAHAAKKPAUtBandtestSettin gsStruct@@@Z could not be located in the dynamic link library BandTest.dll.

I've tried redownloading the patch and reinstalling C&C, but with no luck on getting the no CD to work, any ideas?

I'm using the full retail version, with the C&C patch already installed as well. Any other ideas?

The way I got my game running with No CD was to copy all the *.BIK files from CD2 into a new folder called MOVIES in the DATA folder, then replace the GAME.EXE with the fixed one!

Worked for me, even after applying the patch!

war3zuk, try copying all the files from CD1 to a temp folder on your hard drive and install from there, it may work!

You have a Lite-On 24X so you should have no probs making a perfect 1:1 copy with Clone CD. Read to image file from Lite-on with Fast Error Skip checked. Burn to CD-R - don't tick AWS.

Enable Hide CD-R Media when playing from a burner.

BTW - The setup exe is protected with SD2.51 I believe, so there is no way to unwrap it yourself, so we'll just have to wait until someone has it cracked.

thankz matey ill try it ive used 5 cds allready lol someone please let me no when someone has cracked the setup.exe

[war3zuk]

i used xxl to set up clone i get the same error please insert the game disk lol

Did you make sure you had Hide CD-R Media (in the Clone CD Tray) enabled.
If you do this after copying the game with your Lite-On (with Fast Error Skip and w/out AWS) you should be able to play it.

[Dr Apocalypse]

Use CD-RW's instead of CD-R for testing, you won't make any permanent coasters then

Try clearing the contents of the Windows\Temp folder, or wherever your Windows Temp folder is located and try installing again.

Did you try Reading/Writing at a lower speed?

The Lite-on 24X is able to copy SD2.51 at high speeds - but it's worth a go ne way i suppose.
