Fix Act of War High Treason with this Patch

[PrezKennedy]

Hello everyone,

All you need to do to get this game to run is install the 64-bit version of the TAGES driver. You can do so by visiting this page:

TAGES Protection

I still had to run the game in Windows XP Compatibility Mode as an Administrator, but the game loads and runs correctly.

You're welcome.

I think you still need to reduce the total memory to 2GB still, since I tried that right now and it still kicks me out with the same memory error.

[PrezKennedy]

Make sure you install the 64-bit version of the Tages driver. It works, trust me. I'm running the game with 8GB of RAM.

I still get the error myself after installing it I used the 64 bit version of the drivers

Im using Win7 64bit

Does the patch 1.1 for the Steam version of AoW HT work on Win7? I tried patching my Steam copy of Direct Action, and it's been unplayable ever since. Though it worked fine on Win7 before I installed the patch.

Only worked the first time for me after installing the updated tages drivers, every time after that I also had to delete the file index.fat before booting the game back up.

To make it simple, you can make a .bat in the High Treason folder that only contains
"del index.fat
ActOfWar_HighTreason.exe"
running that lets me boot up high treason every time

You still have to fix the memory issue on X64 of Windows.

I have your fix and I just posted it and hope Valve stickies the permenant fix that I found.

Good luck and follow instructions below and you wont need to set mem limits or reboot this is a PERMENANT fix. This is not offical from Atari but doing some reseearch I found the answer and I tested it on my Windows 7 64 bit and its flawless no more runtime error!

Hello I know this game is old however I have the proper fix for this game and the runtime error which is caused by the memory limit. It is seen running X64 editions of windows and the fix is simple AND DOES NOT REQUIRE a reboot and is a permenant fix.

Follow these simple instructions and enjoy the game with a PERM fix and no more rebooting to set memory.
By the way this fix also works for XII Century - Blood of Europe.
I accidently discovered the same fix works for Act of War High Treason by Atari.


1 - Download CFF Explorer (http://www.ntcore.com/exsuite.php)
2 - Run CFF Explorer
3 - Click File -> Open
4 - Search for ActofWar_HighTreason.exe in X:\Program Files (x86)\Atari\Act of War - High Treason (Steasm users go
here - X:\steam\steamapps\common\Act of War - High Treason)

Replace X:\ by the letter in which your game is currently installed in

5 - Once found, go to Nt Headers -> File Header
6 - You will now get the file headers of ActofWar_HighTreason.exe. In there, search for 'Characteristics' (at the bottom) and click where it says 'Click here'
7 - A new window will pop up and all you have to do is make sure that "App can handle >2gb address space is CHECKED
8 - Apply the changes, then go to File -> Save
9 - Enjoy the game in 64bits!

NO MORE SETTING MEM LIMITS AND REBOOTING!
Enjoy the fix.
Good luck

Im lakesideguy on Steam if your looking for a friend.
Ive found many fixes to games that dont run in Windows 7 64 bit.
And so far only one I cant get to work no matter what.

This doesn't work. I've followed it to the letter and it still has Runtime Errors and refuses to start, with or without admin + compatibility.
