I'll start here:
マリオブラザーズ Mario Burazaーzu (This is how Mario Brothers sounds in Japanese when you sound out the Katakana)
👈 This is used to make the vowel directly before it a long sound, so the a is pronounced slightly longer
Marioburazāzu 👈 When you put the Katakana into Google Translate, you can see the little line show up above the a in the Rōmaji ローマ字


I found it as just Destiny of an Emperor II, does that translate into fucking something "school"?

I got Heaven And Earth Is good - Jurisdiction of the School when I tried separate and gibberish jap title: name of the school when I tried combined :LOL:

Turd!!! Your needed.

I have Live a Live Demo in my log and on my wishlist already. Actually most of my wishlist seemed to be remakes or remaster's at this point :ROFLMAO:

I haven't even loaded my PC since the first game I don't think 😅

I'm in the middle of finding a lawyer and trying to file court documents myself in the meantime that I've never done before, life is a backlog right now. Bookmarked though.

I've had no luck personally trying with every trick I could find, including asking support at EA and SecuROM.

It seems to work (you can play the demo I posted here awhile back), but also seems it can't be registered. At least by every means I tried. Prolly still need a software hack.

Notes​

Japanese: 天地を喰らうII 諸葛孔明伝, Hepburn: "The Devouring of Heaven and Earth II: The Story of Kong Ming"

I ran that through Google Translate and found
Devourer of Heaven and Earth II: The Biography of Zhuge Liang
...but the thing about names written in Chinese Characters (Kanji) is that the Kanji can have different pronunciations, so both names might technically be accurate, but I'd go with Kong Ming because it comes from a Wiki Page written about that specific game and they would know the character names from the game, Google Translate is just guessing at the name based on possible pronunciations that the Kanji could produce.

I just so happen to be studying that first Kanji

...as you can see, it has 3 pronunciations ten/ame/ama. If the word comes from a foreign language, they use Katakana テン (ten) to show you how it would be pronounced (words can be from Chinese or English, above Mario Brothers comes from English, so Katakana would be used)
If the word comes directly from Japanese, they use Hiragana あめ (ame) or あま (ama) to show you how it would be pronounced. In all of the example words, it is pronounced as "ten", but the book obviously isn't teaching you every word, this book's focus is on teaching the Kanji.

天 Heaven/Sky
地 Land/Earth
喰 Eat
So doing what I call "word math", something is eating the heavens and earth (a literal explanation) of course devouring sounds much cooler. :D

The simple fact on this one is it needs a hack...the server to register the second game key is offline. That DRM nightmare we all dread with Denuvo. Ironically the email for SecuROM leads to a Denuvo based email and I never got a reply. Thats one way to make your DRM look like a death trap before it even is.

I actually stopped hunting for Dirt 2 because the Demo works for me but I believe it has the same registration base as this game. I'd rather have 2 courses on a demo :LOL:

The ONLY method I haven't tried is overwriting the game exe with the demo exe, someone has said this works...but I wouldn't trust the Demo exe from another source on my main drive.

You can't download the demo once you have the full game and I'm terrified to remove the game from my library to download the demo because I might lose the key.

EDIT:

If Pax is willing to spare one of those keys, I'll try to remove it from my library and see if the fix will work will the demo game and steam will let me add the game back to my library without the key.

But I'm not risking it unless I have a way to add it to my library again.

Other than that I've tried everything under the sun...AdrianFreeman has the demo running though with no issues.
Make a second Steam Account, download the Demo there, Copy/Paste the .exe file from that to replace the .exe file on your Main Account. If you're worried it'll try downloading to the same folder, just rename the original "Dirt2BAK", then do it and rename it later. (y)

Why didn't I think of this? Don't need a paid steam to download a SteamDB linked demo...plan.

Thanks dude (y)

Well, that worked.Turd ;)

Hey Freeman, what do you have for choices when you load up the demo? Idk if I got the full game running or not but it didn't give me the demo screen about not being the final product.

Nevermind, I'm already at the second camp with the option to buy mass amounts of vehicles.

All I had to do was copy FUEL.exe and Setup.cfg to the Game Folder.

You don't need any of the extra crap, including xlive.dll :LOL:

On a quick look, try the first two links below which says it just requires 2 files that are small for download. Put in the game executable folder and it works. You don't need GWFL installed at all which would be the best way. neuter GFWL from FUEL, b/c almost all issues with FUEL on PC are caused by GFWL. Otherwise the others mentioned would require finding a GFWL (Games For Windows Live) install that works on current Win 10 either from another game or internet. And if that doesnt work....What do you call a deer with no eyes?
No Eye Deer
....Probably why its $200 on key shops, noone wants to deal with the getting to run problem :ROFLMAO:

Fortunally I've the disc for ps3, just insert disc and play, the good side of old consoles.
I dont have Fuel at steam but yes I have installed and played many GFWL games at steam, I read community pages and search from google.
But as I remember we should be careful about bypassing anything old version, not all people at Steam or web is trustable and not all steps that community tells you will end up good. I believe If we want to play something really bad at PC and its a pc version of a game, we can do it, sometimes its painful and you almost give up but If you want to play some game really bad and If it is playable by some people, than Yes, its doable.
I never played games on GFWL, I always avoided it, just playing games on steam.
That's true not everything people say on web is trustable expecially when you have to download unofficial fixes you never know know what you can fin inside If you just download and run. 🪱💻💥

I think once you remove the game key claimed isn't redeemable anymore. Not sure, but better don't try :LOL:.
EA told me after 3 emails they were working on a fix like the game was new and needed a patch...I laughed and didn't go bother going back to support over it :ROFLMAO:
It was AI reply lol.
I don't remember either 🤔, I usually check the answers posted down below:ROFLMAO: or megumin's hints or someone else's hints.(y)

Well done and Welcome to AWA😂(y), where you should be willing to bonk your granny on the head for that sweet ARP.:ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO:

thanks KK for the reminder (y)

Cool thanks for the explaination! Japanese looks so fashinating, I'd like to learn it, I know some words but have no I idea how to write them. hehe
Have you ever tried this game? Learn Japanese To Survive! Trilogy on Steam

Paid Base game required to claim
Thank you Legolas :)
Well, that worked.Turd ;)

Hey Freeman, what do you have for choices when you load up the demo? Idk if I got the full game running or not but it didn't give me the demo screen about not being the final product.

Nevermind, I'm already at the second camp with the option to buy mass amounts of vehicles.

All I had to do was copy FUEL.exe and Setup.cfg to the Game Folder.

You can see this screen:
View attachment 15181
Change graphic options, read info, push the buttons, then when you try to start the game it need to do something special that I dont understand LOL
formally the game starts!
too bad a lot of the older games have this problem, I cannot get to run delta force black hawk down on Steam, but I heard there is a way if you own team sabre and I don't know if it works cause I don't have it!

Shit that's amazingly simple! Good gaming! :cool: (y)

Edit: I was wondering if you ever tried to install the demo from here?


Nah, that directs to the same link you posted in your original post, ignore this :D.

When you have the game in your library, it installs the game not the demo ;)

I was too bent on making it work to even think to download the demo on a second account, glad Turdsplat chimed in or I likely wouldn't have ever tried again.
WOW very cool dude very cool
No doubt, and thank you again for the game my friend (y)
