Steffen Frey Report post Posted October 11, 2008 The SecuROM DRM signature changes regularly. So those games/patches you have used a different version of it. Which is why the DVD-ROM works (it uses a different version of the DRM) and this latest patch - which uses the latest SecuROM - does not. You could try one of the older patches in the meantime until you hear back from Sony. Assuming either one of them works. Well thats odd...newly installed UCCE ver 1.00.03...runs Patched to 1.00.07 doesnt start,conflict with emulation software detected... Patched to 1.00.08 starts and runs...

Supreme Cmdr Report post Posted October 12, 2008 Yeah, thats because they keep changing the DRM signature. That depends on when a patch is done and their protection server is accessed for the signature to inject into the exe. If the DRM has changed, that new DRM version is what gets injected. So it looks like in between them pissing around with it, some versions work while others don't. And its all down to other programs in memory. At least 1.00.08 works. There isn't anything major in .09. So you can wait until you hear back from them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cjlive Report post Posted May 18, 2009 Gday, There seems to be a SecuRom DRM issue with the v2 upgrade, over the D2D verion. I'm getting a "no disc inserted" error". Vanilla install of the D2D version of UCCE "UniversalCombatCE_100301_D2D.exe" and Activation. Download and installed the UCCE - v2.0 Patch [DVD/D2D/GG] version of the update. 242.4 MB (254,122,409 bytes), I'v downloaded the upgrade from 3 different sources.

Is the paul.dll file in the game folder? Thats the DRM key for D2D and GG version. If its not, then thats the problem. You need to save that file from the previous install because the upgrade accidentally deletes it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Did a complete fresh dance, using the saved paul.dll. Confirmed up and running. Cheers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Supreme Cmdr Report post Posted May 18, 2009 Thanks for notifying us. The patch has now been refreshed so it no longer deletes this file. The mirrors will have the new versions up later tomorrow. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
