Another error: Not found procedure entrance point SteamUserStats in steam_api.dll (I've translated from polish so it could be different notice).

You probably have the wrong steam_api.dll (an older one)


This is the correct one :

Yes, it is, but you're missing files, or you run the cracked exe in the wrong folder.

if you want to make sure you ain't missing any files you can do what i did
-copy dvd1 and dvd2 to a folder
-rename the 13 files from Empire Total War_diskX to EmpireTotalWar_diskx (remove the space)
-make a bat file
 Spoiler:
 

but replace "E:\games\EmpireTotalWar" with your own path
-and run it, its the safest way Razz

FAIL
why do people keep making this mistake?
cmd "c:\folder with spaces\file with more spaces.ext" <- works fine

edit;
might aswell share .bats i made..

err, it takes 2 seconds to find those generic dlls.

http://www.google.com.au/search?q=mss32.dll&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a

granted it might not be the latest version of the dll, but i always google and grab with no problems.

Solved the problem. Downloaded one more time CD 2 and now everything runs OK. Many files was missing so downloading every file from net wouldn't help.
BTW It's a really shitty installer from Razor.

"bgabor911"

Don't download any files - If missing files has been displayed You should have a broken iso. Check this out like user "shore" said before.

"Sin317"

You missed the point. Installer is bad because it didn't displayed any error during the installation despite being broken.

The release IS working, but somehow the installer misses alot of files for some people. The simplest sollution is to find a friend who the install works for, and then copy all the files that you are missing from that person.

At least that's what I did, and I was missing about 6GB worth of files.

I didnt bother making a new topic so I'll use this one Razz
I patched the razor release with 2 of its patches(1st patch had a problem with sound sfx.pack, when i had the original file it just went from 83% to 100 over and over again and when i used fixed sound sfx.pack it had an error at that point) and with the 6th patch from damador.'s rapidshare. I tried all cracks and with everyone the game just crashed on the desktop when the copyright came. Also, I got no errors. Does anyone know how to fix it? I really want to play, but I dont wanna play without patches.

My advice would be to reinstall from scratch, I think your files are fucked right now.

Just installed the Razor1911 special forces ver of this last night, no problems at all, except for the custom installer asking for the location of the files several times, but installed and launches just fine ...
