What do you mean “root folder”?
Are you talking about the “WOTR_Install” folder where it all started or the “Orig-Exe” (right next to the “Crack” folder), which is inside “NoCD”.
Because I tried to replace the “Ring” from the “Crack” folder into the “WOTR_Install” (extracted ofc) but it gave an error message saying “ There is not enough space on WOTR_Install. You need an additional 3.34 MB to copy these files.”
Please tell me if I’m doing something wrong
Cheers! ❤️
I couldn’t really install gamespy though.
I tried running the Autoplay and Rings in WOTR_Install, didn’t work
Tried Autoplay in WOTR_Play, didn’t work
Tried running the shortcut icon on the desktop made during installation, didn’t work.
And the replaced Rings in Orig_Exe, didn’t work.
Restarted computer too.
Please help me and I’m very new at this ❤️

Make sure you install the patch before replacing the original exe with the crack file. If you already have the crack file in place, you will have to just re install the game and do it then
Tried so long to work it out, but doing the patch after having the OG exe then adding crack file worked perfectly.
