Dead Rising 2 Message Board  

Game was just released on steam, any chance on an ETA on the trainer?

Just to let everyone know the retail box trainer works for the steam version

Thanks very much just start downloaded for Stream since GFWL hasn't got the game as yet.

I tried both trainers (retail box ultimate and retail ultimate)on my steam version Dead Rising 2. Unfortunately, they won't work. As long as the trainer activated, the game crashed!

How do you people get the trainer (retail box version) to work on Dead Rising 2 steam version?

crashes after i activate a code D:

if someone has confirmed it works, then likely something is blocking your trainer or you didn't run the trainer with administration rights.

i.e.

check there for tips.

Steam uses ZDP.exe as well to confirm the game exe zdp release date encryption, so far the trainer exe (First one.) has worked just fine with that.
(There's also a disc based version using DR2Launcher.exe and SecuROM plus a modified exe as far as I know, xlive.dll from the crack can be used to remove life on any other copy if wanted but trainer seems to work fine with it enabled as well.)

Could differ in other regions I guess but it's no problems here.

To confirm as tested by myself -


1. Ultimate Trainer - Does NOT work for STEAM release of the game.

2. Ultimate Trainer (RETAIL+DIGITAL) - DOES work for STEAM release of the game.



If #2 - RETAIL+DIGITAL does NOT work for you then you (as already said by Caliber) likely have software or settings blocking it from working on your pc - i.e. antivirus (which is fixable), firewall (which is fixable) etc etc.
