ZeroEditor: "You must have Star Wars Battlefront Installed" - But I do!

[Giftheck]

I'm having problems using ZeroEditor. Ever since I did a clean install of both Battlefront and the BF1 Mod Tools, I cannot get ZeroEditor to work at all. It comes up with the "You must have Star Wars Battlefront installed" error each and every time. It's possible that it's because I installed BF1 to a different path the second time around, but I've searched through my registry and there's nothing that hints where ZeroEditor is looking. Is there a fix available?

I think SK's patch fixes that very issue if I'm not mistaken.

This will set you straight http://www.swbfgamers.com/index.php?action=downloads;sa=view;down=20.

Thanks, that works

Thanks, that works

Alternatively there is always bamdurs registry hack method

save as a .reg file and run it

Code Select Expand

REGEDIT4

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\LucasArts\Star Wars Battlefront]
@=""
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\LucasArts\Star Wars Battlefront\1.0]
"CD Key"=""

I didn't make that patch. I'm not sure who did.

If in doubt give credit to internet ghosts.

That was made by The_Pi.
He is a brilliant programmer. It's a shame he doesn't appear on here anymore.


bamdur's registry hack is literally the same thing. Both works.

Sorry that I push this topic, but I noticed that some ppl are still not able to run it.
Even with the .reg patch.
And I hope that the problem approves the push.

I cracked the zeroeditor simply by modifying the jump that is taken when the check is negative.
This should work on every computer (where an .exe can be executed)

Download from my DropBox acc (Could be added to SWBFgamers download section)

If you have any suggestions or wishes what I could add/remove, let me know.

Didnt work to me lol

Maybe a bit more detailed feedback? 

I made this for three guys who asked for another fix (instead of the .reg fix) and it worked for them.

Runtime error

Runtime error

well, a runtime error can caused by several things.

What OS do you use? (could be an issue with XP / Vista)
Did you put the patch in the corect folder (it doesnt need BF installed, but it needs to be in the BFbuilder <yourmapname> folder) => where the original zeroeditor.exe is located.

If you tell me what exactly happend and on which system you run it etc, I could try to make another version of the patch
