edit by NetSoerfer: I hijacked this message as the first one in the merged thread to explain the reason for merging again - for all those who read the first post only and then post.

As there are now five threads about EaW in this forum alone, I will merge them here. Please post about EaW in this thread only.

We already know that there are problems with the patch to v1.03, it appears not to run with Daemon Tools anymore. Rest assured that we're working on this.

You need a good image, an mds/mdf image with DPM Info and AntisecuROM (SecuROM Loader -> d-load section) or CureROM 1.3.1.
Mount the image and use AntisecuROM or CureROM for antblacklisting, for more help see the otherr threads for this topic, there are many.

here a definit way how it will work

if you follow this steps you will be able to play without any problems.

1. raise your hand and reach out for your purchased copy of eaw

2. open the box

3. take out the dvd

4. with the other hand push the open button on your dvd drive

5. put the dvd in the drive

6. close the drive

7. wait for autoplay to start the game

8. press start game and enjoy

[NetSoerfer]

Springs, JureXL, how did you create those images? Does it work with the original CDs/DVDs?

[Springs]

Problems...

The problem i keep getting is this.

Please remove disc from current CD/DVD drive and insert the original "SWEAW" disc
in drive D:.

Why? Ive never had this problem before. I made two images of the disk myself and neither work. Ive tried doing what people have suggested with curerom but still the same happens...

Are you running AnyDVD in the system tray? AnyDVD is blacklisted by SecuROM.

You might also be running another process/application that is blacklisted by SecuROM.

Empire at War - patch 1.03

The new patch (1.03) of Empire at War is just out, downloaded and now i cannot play with image file loaded on alcohol 120.

Right as i got the game i made a good image with alcohol 120 (4x DPM, securom protection settings), load it on a drive and used SR7.Stop to hide the drives. Everything worked fine until now that the new patch is installed.

The problem was obvious right from the installation, since the securom cursor (a cd spinning) took way more time "Scanning", finally to pop out a window "Image software detected...".

Any help?
