(i hope my new account doesn't get frozen over this)
i have recently downloaded the addons for Spellforce: The Order of Dawn. i can install them just fine using daemon tools pro but cannot play them. i get messages saying to use the original disk instead of a backup. what, if anything, can i do to play the addons?
Obviously your COPY will install the game BUT not run it,
Because the game checks the authenticity of the disc,
Before the game will run,
A run of a r'ay -scanner' on the original can and will determine
the protections on the disc.
You can then re-rip and re-burn using the protection settings detected,
Under Alcohol 120% to burn selecing the noted protections.
But your game is downloaded , and you dont have the original,
And the game knows it , and wont start the game up because of it.
I hadn't ever played Spellforce but really enjoyed Spellforce 2, so I got the platinum edition which contains both addons a couple months ago for $10 on Amazon. At that price it's hardly worth the effort trying to get your downloaded copy to work.
