• Use this patch to fix the 'No CD' problem on some systems. If you have a rather uncommon setup of your CD-ROM drive letters (e.g. you got more than one and moved them to the end of the alphabet), then Tomb Raider 3 ISO will most likely refuse to run. The reason is a bug in the CD-Check routine.

As you might know there are 4 tracks on the original CD, 3 of them are FAKE (dummy tracks). Only the first track is valid so don't worry about missing music etc.
Also if you look at the files on the CD you will see that there are 5 hidden dummy files which are very big is size (about 3 Gb in total!).

These are the BIG dummy files:

• awcs.afp
• config.afp
• neir.afp
• oket.afp
• vfaw.afp

The first crack I made (TR3CRACK.ZIP) needed these files to be on the CD. So only a uncracked ImageCopy was possible.
This apparently gives problems with some software so here is another way to make a fixed CD-Copy:

• Copy the full contents of the CD to harddisk, except for the dummy files!
• Make the following file Read/Write: TOMB3.EXE
• Patch TOMB3.EXE (966656 bytes) using this file:
  • ETM3.EXE - for the ENGLISH/EURO Release
  • GTM3.EXE - for the GERMAN Release
• Burn the contents back to a CD-R and leave the CD label blank (as is the original CD label)

• Grab all 4 tracks to harddisk (I used WinOnCD to do this, other burn software will also work).
  These are the available tracks:
  • track1.raw - data track
  • track2.raw - fake music track
  • track3.raw - fake music track
  • track4.raw - fake data track
• Create & Burn a Mixed Mode CD using track 1 & 4, leave out track 2 & 3 to make the CD smaller than 74 minutes (some of the burn software don't allow Data/Audio/Audio/Data tracks).
• Install the game.
• Patch TOMB3.EXE (966656 bytes) using this file: TMB3CRACK.EXE
• Play the game!

• Start Nero - Burning Rom (4.0.0.5 or higher).
• From the action-bar choose File and select CD-Copy.
• Use the following settings (all other settings should be left default):

• When ready click Copy CD to start the copy process.

• MULTI7: EN/DE/FR/ES/IT/PT-BR/RU (Digital Download: 12-2014)

• v1.0
• v1.1 = v1.1.0 = v1.1.240.4.32 = Update #1

• Always make a backup of the files that are overwritten by the File Archive, as the original files are usually required to update the game to a newer version or to play Online!
• Some No-CD/Fixed EXE files work fine in Single Player mode but are detected to be modified when trying to play online. When this happens use the original EXE to play online, else you could find yourself banned from the game!
• When using Fixed Files make sure to use a Firewall which controls outgoing traffic, as some games call back to report the use of these modified files!
• Some original games do not work when a certain application has been installed, like DAEMON Tools. In most cases using a No-CD or Fixed EXE will solve this problem!
• Some Game Trainers are sometimes reported to be a Virus or Trojan, the most common is a keylogger called HotKeysHook or the file has been packed/protected with VMProtect or Themida and is recognized as Win32/Packed.VMProtect or Win32/Packed.Themida. In ALL cases this is a FALSE ALARM as NONE of the Game Trainers @ GCW contain known malicious code! More info in the PC Games FAQ!
• If you have problems using a trainer in combination with Windows Vista, 7, 8 or 10 then make sure to run the trainer with Administrator rights and when needed in Windows XP or Windows 98 compatibility mode!
• ALL available trainers are for Single Player/Offline use ONLY! Don't try to use them online else your account can/will be banned/closed!
