Nah, even legit copy owners are having this problem, apparently it's to do with virtual drives existing on your system.


I went to relic's forum last night and nearly all the issues being described here are on their site, many times. Some think its the actual installer thats messing things up. I would highly suggest reading their site. http://forums.relicnews.com/forumdisplay.php?f=125

Hell, some ppl are going as far as reformating their hds. Shocked

Dang, no luck here, .bwt file produces an error. Sad

First time I run the .exe nothing happens, just some loading then nothing...

Second time (and all further attempts) I run it I get this:



Oh well. Wink


My firend is having similar problems, he got the game patched up fine and installed but is now having issues with the game loading with the image mounted. Ill go try mounting the BWT file and see if that works and get back to you Smile!

My friend had the same prob, we wondered for 30min about what was wrong, then we figured out that he had 3.46, updated to 3.47 and worked perfectly, some fucking amazing 2 hours of lan play followed by some NHL06 kickingass Very Happy Very Happy

That worked for me too krypus, open up the .BWT file with a text editor and you can see what it is expecting the filenames to be. Make sure all the filenames match up, mount the .BWT file and you should be good to go. Make sure you have Securom emulation turned on in Daemon Tools.

Good luck.

I tried burning the images and still no luck. I opened up the .bwt file and the file names where the same as the files but the path was wrong. Should I change the path? If it dont matter, could you please paste the text in your .bwt file? You can send it as a pm if you wish.

Ok, here's how i did to all of you that wont get it to work
:: STEP 1 :: Install DoW, but DONT CRACK IT !!! if you did, you',ll have to replace the cracked exe with the original, otherwise the WinterAssault setup cant update your DoW to v1,4.
:: STEP 2 :: Rename the files in CD1 to "mir-wh40kwa.bwa" "mir-wh40kwa.BWI" "mir-wh40kwa.BWS" and "mir-wh40kwa.BWT".
:: STEP 3 :: Rename the files in CD2 to "MIR-WH40KWB.bin" and "MIR-WH40KWB.cue".
:: STEP 4 :: Install the game using Alcohol 120% or Daemon tools 3.47
:: STEP 5 :: Play the game

tech673:

The path doesn't matter, just the filename. If the filenames in the .bwt match the actual filenames then you should be good to go. What happens when you try to mount the .bwt file using daemon tools v3.47 with Securom emulation? If you don't get an error message when trying to mount, then the problem is not with the .bwt file.

Also, I did not have to change the filenames of cd2.

Ugh, everyone keeps saying that, but the real problem is that both Securom AND the game itself check for virtual drives and won't run if they are installed.

Until you can add a :: STEP 6 :: which details how to stealth your virtual drives while keeping them running, your guide will never work for a lot of us. Wink

chances are your network setup is screwing with it, and that has nothing to do with warhammer really. You could try hamachi anyway I suppose, worth a try anyway.

You guys actually got the GAME to run mounted in d-tools? Mounting for an install is no prob, but the GAME itself actually runs with a mount?

Make sure you guys aren't using daemon tools, and if you are, you have to uninstall both DoW and WA and then make sure daemon tools is totally wiped out.

Then use Alcohol 120% to mount/install/play

I had all of your same problems until I stopped using d-tools.

My version of Alcohol 120% is: 1.9.2 (Build 1705)

Well they are reporting the exact error messages I was getting, so I figure I'd drop the info that got it working for me.

Yes I'm sure I was using the latest d-tools, 3.47 Wink
