        then make a shortcut to daemon.exe and add -rmps on
        in the commandline

        then start sacred. exe
        mark the shortcut to deamon.exe and press enter
        keep enter pressed

        has the same effect the script had

        well it does not work for me
        but script did not either

          i used to play sacred with an rmps copy and, since 1.6 in conjunction with daemonscript, as described in some other thread.

          today i read a lot about blacklists of daemonscript. though i cannot conform this, i wrote a small script for the windows scriptting host. perhaps you'll need to adjust the folder to correctly locate the d-tools.
          place in in your game folder and execute it. needs windows scripting host to run. wonder if they'll blacklist that, too!

          save the following as sacred.js in your game folder
          //SCRIPT
          RunSacred();
          function RunSacred()
          {
          var WSHShell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell");
          var i;

          WSHShell.Run("c:\\Programme\\D-Tools\\daemon.exe -rmps on",1,1)
          WSHShell.Run("sacred.exe",1,0)

          for (i=0; i<50; i++)
          {
          WScript.Sleep(500)
          WSHShell.Run("c:\\Programme\\D-Tools\\daemon.exe -rmps on")
          }

          }
          //END SCRIPT

          works fine!

            I tried your script but got the following error message:

            Windows Script Host

            Script: E:\Program Files\Ascaron Entertainment\Sacred\sacred.js
            Line: 8
            Char: 1
            Error: The system cannot find the file specified

            Code: 80070002
            Source (null)

            I made sure that it was pointed to Daemon tools, and I put the .js file in the folder where sacred.exe is, but other than that, I'm not sure what I could have done wrong. Any ideas?

              It is not possible to run apps in different path with this script nor set any parameters, dunno why. You have to make batch file in the same dir with daemon.exe command an run it directly...

              But still no luck for me

                the .js script works perfectly for me. maybe (i dunno) itґs because of the blanks in the path. i do not have blanks in either path (daemon and sacred). havenґt verified this ґcos iґm at work now, but ...

                well, you might want to give it a try.

                  hey ho!

                  i have forgotten to tell you to to install the scripting host. download http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...7-3cffcb0c2524

                  script will work then!

                    Tried it again with no blanks and after dl the scripting host and still got the same error msg. Crud. (as a sidenote, isn't the scripting host installed on win xp by default?)

                      yes, thatґs what i thought, too. but when i tried to reproduce the reported errors on my office computer i was successful (in creating the errors, donґt misunderstand me). so i just gave it a try, installed the wsh and ka-boom, the script worked.

                        The reason its not working is because Xp has a bug and I believe its going to be updated in service pack 2. It can't handle long filenames. Change the script to this:

                        Yours:
                        Script: E:\Program Files\Ascaron Entertainment\Sacred\sacred.js
                        Line: 8
                        Char: 1
                        Error: The system cannot find the file specified

                        Code: 80070002
                        Source (null)

                        Correct:
                        Script: E:\Progra~1\Ascaro~1\Sacred\sacred.js

                        Change all types to the old dos style filenames.

                        Btw, this will NOT work with the US copy or ENU copy. D-tools is blacklisted.

                            Well, that was the solution to the scripting error, thanks twisted. Unfortunately, I still get the cd verification error. Ah well, to be honest, unless they patch the game enough to actually make it worth playing, I doubt I'll wear out my original disk. :mrgreen:

                              Actually, you should probably quote the actual command, since you have parameters to pass. So you have:

                              WSHShell.Run("\"c:\\Program files\\D-Tools\\daemon.exe\" -rmps on",1,1)

                              I've not tried this, but just guesing.
