In all honesty I WOULD buy it, but that limit on activations is BULLSHIT. If I buy something, I have earned the right to download and activate that fucker as many times as I damn well please, not 5 times. I reformat quite often, and Ill be damned if they are going to tell me how many times I can activate something I bought. Fuck Trymedia and fuck Creative Assembly for using them. Cheap cunts. Have lost respect for them for opting for such a cheap way of distribution.
I can never be free, because the shackles I wear can't be touched or be seen.

I get the feeling this game won't be cracked. Any idea what protection it has? I know the original is SD3 and BI was SD4...

They are. But the CD version (bought in stores) has the same TryMedia activation shit as the downloadable version. Thus, you can only activate it x number of times. Read this from a user on the RTW boards. He could be wrong, but I dun think so.
EDIT: The only way you can get this expansion in disc form is by buying the Rome: Total War Eras collection that ships on 7/18/06 for $60. It includes RTW - RTW: BI - RTW: Alexander (but again, this is still the download activation version a disc I believe)

Hey all,
I'm wondering if the disk version is slightly different to the downloaded version. I used the crack on a 488mb downloaded archive which installed alexander correctly but once cracked just ticked over at 99% cpu as already described. Just wondering if people have tried this patch with installs from disk images - I know this is unlikely but i'm cracking up at this point. Anyway I'm downloading a couple of images in the off chance... Anybody notice the size of the cracked exe - 21mb compared to 6 in the original.

The new crack is fooked as well... well on mine it is anyway. Gets to menu and you can navigate around but try any battle and it takes you straight back to the desktop. The campaign you can get to the battle map and move around but once again go to any battle and it boots you straight to the desktop.

I'm surprised that no one has cracked this yet. Are the big release groups ignoring it? If so why?

Someone over at Gamecopyworld fixed it:
[QUOTE=Boicote]I FOUND THE PROBLEM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The problem with the file from http://rapidshare.de/files/25373930/RomeTotalWarNoCd.rar.html are the sprites that are not working (i don't know why, but they are damaged)
To solve this problem you have 2 options:
a) create new sprites (experient "modders" only)
b) or disable the sprites. To do this follow the steps:
1-open the file C:/....Activision/Rome Total War/alexander/data/descr_model_battle.txt
2-press edit»replace text
3-in find what write "model_sprite" and in change to write ";model_sprite"
4-press change all
5-save and exit
6-place the file from http://rapidshare.de/files/25373930/RomeTotalWarNoCd.rar.html in the main folder
7-duble click on it
8-VERY IMPORTANT: have fun!
P.S. backup original RomeTW-ALX.exe and descr_model_battle.txt[/QUOTE]

Rome_Total_War_Alexander_Proper-Razor1911
³ Date: July 13th, 2006 ³ Game Type : Strategy ³
³ Size: 1 CD ³ Protection: SafeDisc ³
Game Notes
~~~~~~~~~~
Rome: Total War - Alexander is the second official expansion pack to Rome:
Total War.
Boasting more than 30 hours of gameplay, the pack features a brand new
campaign played out on a specially extended map covering Macedonia, Greece
and the whole of the ancient Persian Empire. The pack also includes six new
historical battles that unlock sequentially, portraying Alexander’s most
significant conflicts with Greek, Persian and Indian forces. These
historical battles are also playable online or across a LAN with up to 17
multiplayer battle setups.
P.S. Officially this addon can only be obtained via web download or as part
of the \'Eras Collection\'.
Proper Reason
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The QUARTEX release was a homemade ISO based on the downloadable version and
included a bad crack.
Install Notes
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-first make sure the original game is installed and updated to version
1.5 (standalone) or 1.6 (\'Barbarian Invasion\' addon)
-unrar, mount/burn, install
-copy crack from razor1911 dir.
-play & enjoy!

From nfo.
Quote: | Proper Note
Razor managed to bungle their proper of this game, they fixed the trigger
tables wrong resulting in a non working game. Look below for one example of
this
RLD
00DD7738: 81D285A8096F ADC EDX, 6F09A885
RZR
00DD7738: 81C285A8096F ADD EDX, 6F09A885
As for their comments on our proper Prey release yesterday. Their version
uses the Triton preload version executable which has been available for
weeks before the store date. Ours uses the final retail executable. Triton
Added that same version executable to their download package yesterday
Their version is also not playable online with a retail serial. Draw your
own conclusions why our version is proper |
