Desert rats vs Afrika Korps Fixed EXE

[BarryB]

Err... solved the menu problem, I read the Readme.txt

Seems you need to reboot the computer (Which I did) or manually copy a font file over to the fonts folder:

1/ Why is there an empty menu when I launch the game?
-----------------------------------------------------
The game requires a reboot. Please reboot your system and try again.
IF THE PROBLEM PERSISTS :
you'll have to manually install the game font into your system font folder.
Take the file called "AgencyB.TTF" that is located in the game folder
(usually "C:\Program Files\Monte Cristo\DR vs AK") and copy it into the
system's font folder, (usually C:\WINDOWS\Fonts or C:\WINNT\Fonts)

Must have been me trying to run the game without rebooting and using the crack first that screwed it up as replacing the starforce EXE and rebooting didn't solve it, so had to do the manual copy thingy as per readme!

I applied the missing files again and the FLT Crackfix and game works fine now, menu text is now visible. I also applied the ATI Shadow Fix patch too, just to be safe!

@BarryB


Hey Mate

it works for me

i didnt have to move the font file or anything it just works now.


thanks mate i owe you big time.

i strongly recommend you put that on the crack sites gcw and ***

i'd do it but i think you deserve the credit on this one mate.

thanks again



oh and also i didnt have to restart either


with starforce you forced to restart the comp as it needs to restart to install the starforce drivers which causes all my blood to go to my face and nearly have an anorism.

anyways with a crack you dont have to restart and from what i've seen it only installs starforce when you click on the games exe file for the first time.

so when you use a crack starforce is completely removed so it usually wont even install starforce drivers on your system.

arr shit

level 3 craps out mate

i fixed it though

download the 1.18 fixed exe from gcw and then u need to copy over the ak.exe and the shortcuteditor.exe

worked like a charm

[wolfsrain]

So combinig the two cracks was the right way. If BarryB can repackaged it and upload it on gamecopyworld, that would make a lot of people happy.

yeh original crack had the level 3 issue, midway through the movie
its an e9 redirect to starforce code,which was fixed (but +400000h
added to the va.. hiew bug),the crack fix (oddly enough) fixes this

[BarryB]

Oops! Must have put the bad crack in not the crackfix

Repacked with FLT Crackfix:

Password: GcW

Also uploaded to GCW! (Got a problem with the uplaod to GCW, stay tuned!)

[Alien Firefox]

i already fixed it.

as i said i would have put this on gamecopyworld myself only barryb deserves the credit for this crack and so therefore its up to him to put it on there.

once again thank you barryb

[BarryB]

I only found the files

Can you try uploading the crackfix + files to GCW as I seem to be having an upload issue, it's only 4mb when packed but I can't seem to upload it!

EDIT: Seems the upload problem is with GCW, EMPiRE is fixing it as soon as he can!

[TippeX]

the credit for the crack goes to the cracker...

[BarryB]

Thank Fairlight for the crack/fix!

Files now uploaded to GCW, EMPiRE fixed the upload problem!

[Alien Firefox]

the cracking credit goes to fairlight but the crack being available is thanks to BarryB

[wolfsrain]

The next thing is doing a short faq with the optional and the secret objectives. If I can find my old saves, I can write about the greman campaign where I managed to do all the objectives(what can I say, I'm a manic, I want everything completed, not as pot on my dossier). The allied campaign proved to be more elusive.
Thanks BarryB for upload. Thanks Fairlight for crack.

[Alien Firefox]

yer theres already a complete saved game all access thing for this game

its on gcw i think or ***


so the next thing is a trainer with invulnerability

Yay for me, I'm a credit whore, all your credits are belong to me

[TippeX]
