I spent half of my morning trying to play Warcraft 3 RoC and TFT. I got the iso's from thepiratebay.org, mounted them with PowerISO and successfully installed the classic and expansion versions. But then when I tried to launch TFT by double clicking on PowerISO's virtual drive, and error got slammed in my face that I didn't have the CD in. Bull shit.
I tried using No-CD cracks from a bunch of different places, and even made sure I updated Warcraft 3 to v1.21a, but I no matter what I did I couldn't get on B.net (I have a valid cd-key... I just misplaced the CDs!!). Although I successfully got the game running, the updates and the no-cd patches that I tried were never compatible.
Pissed off and frustrated, I did some forum searching and decided to try another virtual image mounter... Alcohol 120%. Well, long story short it worked perfectly.
I mounted the images, installed the game, launched the game with Alcohol's virtual drive, installed the game updates through battle.net, and now I am playing DotA with my buddies :) Word of advice... if you can, mount a cd image. No-CD cracks are more trouble than they're worth :yup:
All in all, screw PowerISO :frusty:
