Command & Conquer 3: Tiberium Wars - NoDVD Crack

[kingbirch]

ok i bought CnC3 tiberium wars kane edition and im not even using a crack but im experiencing the same problems as some who are using a crack, where you cant play the gdi campaign and everything else crashes randomly and comes up with an error message saying that there is a problem with the CNC3GAME.DAT file...
any help??
thankyou in advance

Update the game to v.1.05. I remember that only v.1.04 had problems.

Any no-dvd crack for C&C3 will work on any language version. There is nothing in the cnc3game.dat that is language specific (all the language specific bits are in the data files)
Also, anyone seen a no-dvd for 1.06? the GameCopyWorld page for C&C3 mentions it but doesn't have an actual download.

Works properly now.

Hi. I Dl'd the 1.06 No-DVD crack (Yes, my game is legit and reg'd with EA), and all that came in the RAR was an 8MB video file that doesn't run, and an NFO file, but no crack.

Can someone help?

read the nfo, the .dat file is no video, it is the crack...

The file that must be overwritten can be found in the Retail directory.
Install game, update, backup the dat.file from the Retail directory(if the game it's updated again, you just put back that file and you won't have to reinstall the game), overwritte the dat file.
Enjoy!

Thanks for your help!

That worked like a charm. I am used to the traditional .exe cracks. This one kinda threw me a bit.

Just a curiosity question: Does anyone else here experience the out-of-synch voice and video jerkiness. I know it isn't part of the crack, as it has always done this. I couldn't find anything on EA's site about this. Does anyone know another good site to check out info on tech issues and stuff for this game?

Just curious.

And thanks to whoever made the crack. It really saves my discs!

Out of sync/jerkiness sounds like it could be a codec problem. Try uninstalling any codec packs.

Works like a charm

downloaded the patch from the ea ftp server, replaced original exe and updated the game with patch 1.08, replaced the .dat file with those of the crack, not a single problem

This kind of cd-check was introduced with the first LOTR: BFME.
As for the sound, first update your soundcard drivers(if you have an onboard sound card that's a must - keeping your drivers up-to-date it's vital). Also the only codec pack for XP that worked fine for me is K-lite codec pack.

Long time user but first time poster, lol. KUDOS to your work

I have just downloaded the CnC3-1.08-no-dvd-crack. I noticed that Vitality's file has 1.04 as part of the file's name (tested on two mirrors).
As I cannot test/play right now I don't know if this is an issue or not.
Sure the dl-link points at the correct file ?

You sir, are jumping the barrel. D2D for exemple is very legal and might very well be what he asked about.
