Coh Opposing Fronts 2.602 No Cd Crack
In this article I'm going to discuss some of the major and common issues pertaining to installation/running of one of the most renown RTS (Real-Time Strategy) WWII-based game series - Company of Heroes (often abbreviated as CoH). The game was released by Relic Entertainment in collaboration with THQ in 2006 and later its standalone expansion pack 'Opposing Fronts' was released in 2007 (abbreviated as CoH:OF) followed by second standalone expansion pack 'Tales of Valor' in 2009 (abbreviated as CoH:ToV). The publishers have stringently protected this game series via CD key verification as well as usable media verification system in order to ensure that ONLY legitimate owners can get access to the purchased retail CD/DVD. However, the publishers simply left out of consideration the legitimate owners of retail CD/DVD who wanted to backup their game in image formats (.ISO/.FLT, etc.) or who, in severe circumstances, lost the source media of game (CD/DVD), they won't ever be able to successfully install/run their game again for which they have really dearly paid.
Having considered one of these issues, this article revolves around the question of running this game via backup image (.ISO/.FLT, etc.) on the system as well as manually patching the game for upgrade purpose.

NOTE: Each game from this series are perfectly compatible with Windows 7 (x64) yet before proceeding further it is advisable to have a look at the minimum system requirement (as specified above) of the respective game from the series to be installed on your system. Or you can simply get it checked if your system is compatible enough to accommodate this game by visiting this website http://systemrequirementslab.com/cyri.
Let's jump to the issues pertaining to this game in the order as they are put in the heading of this article.
Issue 1: Unable to upgrade the game via manual patching (for the owners of legitimate game image such as .ISO/.FLT, etc.).
Discussion: As I have mentioned above the publishers have well protected this game series pretty stringently that only the owners of retail CD/DVD have the only privileges to get hands on their owned games in terms of installation/running the game on their systems. This tight protection method of CD/DVD key verification incorporated with usable media verification system comes into effect via the patching upgrade beyond patch version of 1.71.0 to Company of Heroes Original game. Therefore, not to mention, the standalone expansion packs of this game series will already contain this effect whether or not one tries to avoid patch upgrade to them. Yet, it is always essential to upgrade the game through patching because these patches contain bugs/texture/glitches fix and sometimes add-ons in missions and so on. The resultant issue of 'Could not verify media' will be discussed following the resolution of this issue. First, we are going to overcome the problems of manually patching the game from Company of Heroes Opposing Fronts expansion pack onwards.
Take a note about the retail version of these games when they were first released from this series.
Company of Heroes - Original released with Retail Version of 1.0.0
Company of Heroes - Opposing Fronts released withRetail Version of 2.100.0(patch upgrade from version 2.100.0 onwards will be applicable)
Company of Heroes - Tales of Valor released with Retail Version of 2.500.0(patch upgrade from version 2.500.0 onwards will be applicable)
Company Of Heroes Opposing Fronts 2.602 Crack No Cd
The knowledge of retail version of each game in this series is really essential when one wants to know from what point of patch version they should begin manually patching it otherwise one would simply get stuck on the messages from installation wizard displaying unable to identify the version of the game and that the wizard could not patch it.
Solution: This solution will be beneficial to those who own the legitimate game image in formats such as .ISO/.FLT, etc. in the absence of having the original retail CD/DVD.
NOTE: This is applicable to standalone expansion packs only, i.e., Company of Heroes - Opposing Fronts and Company of Heroes - Tales of Valor.
Step 1: Install the standalone expansion pack either Company of Heroes - Opposing Fronts or Company of Heroes - Tales of Valor using the game image (.ISO/.FLT, etc.) you own via virtual drive emulator (such as Daemon Tools, Alcohol, etc.) or using a burnt CD/DVD containing the game image.
NOTE: DO NOT USE ANY NO-CD/DVD EXECUTABLE IMAGE FIX (CRACK) FOR NOW WHILE YOU FIRST NEED TO UPGRADE THE GAME WITH MANUAL PATCHING SYSTEM.
Step 2: Run the game image (.ISO/.FLT, etc.) one more time either via virtual drive emulator or using a burnt CD/DVD and let the 'Autoplay' dialog box appear and instead of doing anything else just explore the contents of the game image or CD/DVD by clicking on 'Open folders to view files'.
Step 3: Go to 'Data' folder and extract a copy of 'RelicCoH.exe_NEW_FILE_xxxxxxxxxxxxx' (where xxxxxxxxxxx is denoted as some alphanumerical value in the file), and paste it somewhere on your hard drive.
Step 4: Locate the pasted file 'RelicCoH.exe_NEW_FILE_xxxxxxxxxxxxx' on your hard drive and rename it as 'RelicCoH.exe'.
Step 5: Copy this renamed 'RelicCoH.exe' file and paste it into the game installation directory which should replace the existing original 'RelicCoh.exe' file.
Step 6: Apply the official patch version 2.100.0_to_2.101.0 (for Company of Heroes: Opposing Fronts) or patch version 2.500.0_to_2.501.0 (for Company of Heroes: Tales of Valor) to the game and it should patch the game with no issues.
NOTE: You can download this official patch version 2.100.0_to_2.101.0 (for CoH: OF) from here.

Step 7: Now you can sequentially upgrade the game with rest of the official patches available. (Patch version 2.700.0 is not available for manual patching and can be done automatically via Steam server for the owners who have purchased the game from Steam only).
NOTE: For Company of Heroes: Opposing Fronts, you can sequentially patch it until 2.301.0 and then apply the no-CD/DVD exe image fix (if you have lost the original retail CD/DVD or backed-and-packed up your CD/DVD). You can retrieve the no-CD/DVD exe image fix version 2.301.0 from here:https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B9El3RHzVu68VkpSY01pVTc0M2c/view?usp=sharing (Before applying this fix, MUST READ the instructions described in Issue-2->Segment-II->Step-2 of this article)
For Company of Heroes: tales of Valor, you can sequentially patch it until 2.602.0 and then apply the no-CD/DVD exe image fix (if you have lost the original retail CD/DVD or backed-and-packed up your CD/DVD). You can retrieve the no-CD/DVD exe image fix version 2.602.0 from here:https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B9El3RHzVu68VXRjQllPMXI0S28/view?usp=sharing.

Issue 2: Cannot proceed beyond the display message 'Could not verify media' when attempting to play the game.
Discussion: This far we have already got to know about the stringent policies imposed by the publishers of this game series in terms of CD key verification incorporated with usable media verification system in order to successfully install and/or run the game. This means if you've initially successfully passed the CD key verification system you'll be put on another test where the usable media verification system will check whether you have loaded a legitimate retail copy of CD/DVD or not. If this verification system won't get satisfied with the CD/DVD quality or any other media loading source is detected being in use such as virtual drive emulators, you will immediately get a small menu-like dialog box popped up with a message 'Could not verify media' along with few more options offered so that user may be able to rectify their mistake either taking you to the publishers' server if you opt for Retail Version or redirecting you to the Steam server for Direct2Drive option. In either case, it won't get sorted out no matter how many times you'll enter all the correct details because for Retail Version option the publishers' servers are down or simply spoken are completely 'dead' since ages and for Steam server because of the conflict between previous retail-owned copies of CD/DVD and Direct2Drive options offered by Steam which in no way bridges the gap to the satisfaction of publisher.
Solution: So, to get out of this labyrinth, one may want to follow the resolution divided into two segments of which the first specifies for those who own the retail copy of CD/DVD and for others who have lost/misplaced the retail CD/DVD and have only access to game image in formats like .ISO/.FLT, etc. Therefore, follow the appropriate segment that best suits to you in terms of what source you have available to install and run the game.
Segment-I: This segment focuses on the owners who own the retail copy of CD/DVD of game from this series and still encountering the issue of 'Could not verify media'.
Step 1: Before loading the retail copy of CD/DVD on your optical drive tray, make sure you DO NOT have any virtual drive emulator (such as, Daemon Tools, Alcohol, etc.) installed and if you have any then you GOT TO UNINSTALL this emulator from your hard drive.
Step 2: If you're using more than one optical drives in any case then you got to disable one of those drives; let's say you have a CD drive separate than a DVD drive then you may want to disable the CD optical drive in the following manner leaving the DVD optical drive intact.
1. Go to 'My Computer' and Right-click on the said CD optical drive and select 'Properties'.
2. Click the 'Hardware' tab on the opened dialog box and again highlight the appropriate name of optical drive (in this case, CD optical drive) and then click on 'Properties' tab at the bottom of this dialog box.
3. A relative dialog box for this optical drive will open and you got to click on 'Change Settings' tab at the bottom of this very dialog box.
4. A replicate of this dialog box will reappear but this time simply click the 'Driver' tab and under this section seek for 'Disable' (Disables the selected device.) and click on this and then hit 'OK' at the bottom of this box and accept the changes.
5. Now, while leaving one optical drive intact (in this case DVD optical drive), you can now load the retail copy of DVD in the respective tray and play the game without any frustrating message display of 'Could not verify media'.
NOTE: Using retail DVD copy for playing the game of this series, you ought to repeat all the steps mentioned above in order to play this game without any problem if you roll back to the settings for making the disabled optical drive active again.

Segment-II: This segment aids the owners of the legitimate retail copy of CD/DVD who might have lost or misplaced their copy and are left with game image in formats like .ISO/.FLT, etc. For these owners, there's no other way for them than relying on no-CD/DVD exe image fix in order to run the game smoothly and with no hassle.
NOTE: NO-CD/DVD EXECUTABLE (exe.) IMAGE FIX IS INTENDED TO BE USED FOR ORIGINAL LEGITIMATE OWNED GAME CDs/DVDs AND NOT TO PROMOTING ANY IDEA OF PIRACY OR UNAUTHORIZED DUPLICATION OF GAMES.
Step 1: After having installed the game from this series on your hard drive, you need to upgrade the respective game with manual patching system until the point of no-CD/DVD exe image fix version you're available with. (The section on how to upgrade the game with manual patching is discussed in this article earlier. Refer to that section above for any help in this regards.)
NOTE: This issue for 'Could not verify media' will be encountered only beyond the patch upgrade version of 1.71.0 and even applicable to Company of Heroes: Original. Therefore, this solution applies in this case as well.
Step 2: After having upgrade the game with manual patching in alignment to the same version of no-CD/DVD exe image fix available to you, you simply need to follow the instructions for applying this fix. (If you need help on official patch download for this game series as well as no-CD/DVD exe image fix you may refer to the earlier section of my discussion where relative download links are mentioned).

Issue 3: How to incorporate the original Company of Heroes game with standalone expansion pack?
Discussion: The next question arises regarding how to incorporate of original Company of Heroes with Company of Heroes: Opposing Fronts expansion pack so that one can enjoy playing with all four factions having assimilated them from one game into another. The expansion packs released followed by the original CoH are all 'standalone' that means one can simply install these expansion packs in the absence of base pack which is original CoH. But, the problem here is that unless you have original CoH neither you won't be able to play the missions of original CoH nor use the factions from the original game although you would be able to see the deactivated portion of Normandy mission of original CoH while playing CoH: OF. The basic intention of making these expansion packs standalone is to promote sales by not having the buyer rely on the base pack but can simply continue playing the forward missions in the absence of base pack. However, in Company of Heroes: Tales of Valor there is no such requirement for the base pack to be installed in order to play all the four factions in multiplayer mode but of course you still will be devoid of playing the original missions of base pack here too if you don't have original CoH. In any case, this problem can be avoided not with any hit-and-trial method but simply following the sequence of game installation of this series.
NOTE: Only one expansion pack can be incorporated with the base pack (original CoH). This means you cannot install Company of Heroes: Tales of Valor with the base pack if you have already installed Company of Heroes: Opposing Fronts. Similarly, vice-a-versa, Company of Heroes: Opposing Fronts cannot be installed with the base pack if Company of Heroes: Tales of Valor already exists on your hard drive.
Let's jump to the solution to this issue.
Step 1: First, install the Company of Heroes: Original on your hard drive without any need to upgrade it with manual patching if you intend to incorporate the original CoH with any of the available expansion packs since once expansion pack is installed it will upgrade the original CoH to the higher version what the expansion pack was released with.
Step 2: Now, install any of the expansion packs either CoH: OF or CoH: ToV. A warning message will display before installation that a previous version copy of Company of Heroes exists and it will delete in the process of installing the expansion pack; however, be ready with the CD key of original CoH if you want the missions of original version too. DO NOT be afraid and simply let go by clicking OK. However, in custom settings of game installation you can better remove the check mark for launching the game automatically after installation finishes.
Step 3: The expansion pack will be installed successfully.
If you own a retail copy of CD/DVD of both original and expansion pack, you can simply let the DVD of expansion pack stay in the optical tray and run the game from the installation directory on your hard drive. It will prompt you to enter the DVD key for original Company of Heroes in order to incorporate it with the expansion pack you've just installed. (To get help on avoiding 'Could not verify media' issue, refer to the earlier section of this article.)
If you're installing the game using a legitimate game image (.ISO/.FLT, etc.) then follow all the steps until you upgrade the game with manual patching version that should coincide with the version of your no-CD/DVD exe image fix available with you. In this case, after having installed the expansion pack over base pack (original CoH), the game wizard won't show any prompt box to enter CD/DVD key of original CoH. Don't run/launch the game yet. You simply have to first follow the steps 1 through 2 and then apply the appropriate no-CD/DVD exe image fix to the game installation directory. Now, you can launch the game via replaced image fix and it will show the message 'Could not verify media' which you simply need to ignore and click 'Continue' and the game should run smoothly with previous missions of original CoH active along with new missions of the expansion pack.
Conclusion: All issues resolved to the greatest extent.
I hope this article will be of your interest and help you play this intense Gold WWII war game.
