I was playing around with WarCraft II and I came across a problem with the Dark Portal Expansion. Everything worked fine when I had the cd drive mounted, but when I tried using a cue/bin on imgmount it can't read files correctly.
What I did:
Z:> mount c .\root
Z:> imgmount d c:\warcraft2_x.cue -t iso
Z:> C:
C:> cd war2
C:> war2
ERROR:
Invalid data file version
Press any key...
"D:> DIR" displays the contents of the cd alright so I know it's mounted correctly, and if I rebuild the cue/bin using UltraISO and the files I copied off the cd in windows it works fine. But if I add the audio tracks to that rebuilt image (add .wav files to the .cue and burn to a cd-rw and read that image) it fails with the same error again. The original WarCraft II image works fine, but I always have problems with the expansion, maybe it's because it has 18 tracks? Also, if you try and install the game using the imgmounted drive, it fails with a copy error.
Z:> mount d d:\ -t cdrom -ioctl
That always works when I have either the original expansion cd or the burned copy, so it can't be a bad image. The game is also patched to version 1.50.
