Making a full iso recognize a ripped version
August 3rd, 2016
I have a ripped version of Act of War : Direct Action (great RTS for those who never heard of it) by the team HDO (I think), which is more like a compressed version as nothing is ripped : it’s just an “extract the files and voila”.
However, I have an iso version of Act of War : High Treason which is the expansion set and when I launch the setup, it doesn’t see my AoW:DA version currently installed.
Thus, I’m wondering if there’s any way to make the setup recognize the ripped version so that I can finally play it (maybe it’s just a matter of creating a missing reg file or something, but I lack the appropriate knowledge and skill)
Thank you in advance
Well if its just extract and play it hasn’t been installed. No registry entries and nothing for the computer to track back. Meaning it’s not actually ‘properly’ installed. I don’t think there is as it hasn’t been installed its just run from a bat file and extracted and played.
A registry key is missing. Only someone who got this game installed can help you on this one.
> I actually run the game from an .exe file and during the “installation” (so to say), a message was prompted twice asking me if I’d allow the setup to add registry keys (which I obviously did)
