to Whom it may concern....
Well After an exhaustive search and research I was able to get my DOW paltimun collection Disc to work with all races and installed on one bottle Crossover Games 7 Intel MacBook.
-
real easy install at first; just walk through the disc install that pops up and DOW + DOW Winter Assualt come up working A-OK!
-
trying to install DOW Dark Crusade is a bit more involved.... walkthrough the installation and install in the same bottle.
3.then you must create a run command for Dark crusade by starting Crossover then click Programs\Run Command...Then browse to DarkCrusade.exe
-
At this point you should be able to run Dark crusade HOWEVER the other races will be locked ...EVEN IF you enter valid keys when asked to do so.
-
to unlock you must navigate to %username%\Library\Application support\Crossover Games\Bottles\%Whatever you named your Bottle%\system.reg. You will be modifying this file so open with TEXT EDIT and look for the entries below...
[b][Software\THQ\Dawn of War - Dark Crusade]
"CDKEY"="xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx"
"InstallLocation"="C:\Program Files\THQ\Dawn of War - Dark Crusade\"
"W40KCDKEY"="xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx"
"WXPCDKEY"="xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx"[/b]
[Software\THQ\Dawn of War - Dark Crusade\1.00.0000]
[Software\THQ\Dawn of War]
"CDKEY"="xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx"
"CDKEY_WXP"="xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx"
"InstallLocation"="C:\Program Files\THQ\Dawn of War - Dark Crusade\"
Enter your Legit keys here instead of the XXXXXXXXX's then save and close.
6.Start Dark Crusade and enter keys when asked.......this time it should work and register correctly; unlocking all races.
Hope this write up helps someone.....and saves a few days research. A side note......the steam downloaded versions of these games seem to integrate and work better than the retail disc which is what I had.
