Tiger Woods PGA Tour 08-HATRED

Since Bioshock was pre’d earlier this afternoon, i guess many of you wont pay attention to this fine release from group HATRED. Tiger Woods PGA Tour 08 contains a few new features as well as some updated graphics but apart from that it plays pretty much the same as 07, 06 etc. If Golf is your kind of sport than I’m sure you will be able to appreciate the subtle new differences and features. Included in this release along with the all important crack is also a keygen which is always a nice addition. Enjoy and shoot for that hole in one!

Take on the world in Tiger Woods PGA TOUR® 08. For the first time, every portion of your game is recorded—from your opening drive on the first hole in Play Now mode to your final putt in the FedEx Cup Championship. Post your most amazing—and unthinkable—performances on EA SPORTS™ GamerNet, a revolutionary interactive gaming hub that hosts user-created content online. Set the bar high by posting your top moments, and take on challenges set by others, to determine the world’s greatest golfer once and for all. Whether you’re uploading an unbeatable round or the craziest shot, take the world by storm with Tiger Woods PGA TOUR 08.

Features:

  • Confidence is a Factor: The all-new Shot Confidence feature uses factors from your previous rounds-including club selection, lie, hole, and more-to determine your confidence heading into each shot.
  • PGA TOUR Mode: Build a golfer from the ground up in the most in-depth Career mode ever. Go from an inexperienced rookie to a crafty TOUR veteran on your way to becoming the world’s most dominant golfer.

    Keeps telling me it can’t install it ‘cos I don’t have DirectX9c installed and yet I do!!! Anyone else had this error in Windows XP?

    Scit: read this on multiple forums. I installed it on XP, and didn’t have any error. Did you tried to install the latest DirectX9c? (last one is august)

    I think I’d rather play this than Bioshock. Bioshock is a good but it made nauseous as hell, had me vomiting and shit, like when you get a sever case of seasickness…

    Okay not sure what’s going on with this. used the keygen but it won’t run saying wrong disc inserted. Tried running the TW2008 exe in the hatred folder but that said there was an engine or something or other missing.

    What’s up?

    If you have 2007, don’t even bother downloading this. It appears EA Sports spent exactly 1 hour upgrading this game, of which was spent on making the graphics for the outer box.

    The graphics for the game on the other hand are FAR behind anything we should be seeing in 2007-8. This game looks like a suped up Nintendo 64.

    No photo game face, no course manager. It would be better to just get the console version of this game, it appears EA Sports spends more time on those versions of this game.

    Couldn’t tell you #21. I extracted everything and installed it to the same folder extracted to. Yanked the TW2008 out of the folder and copied it over the exe in the bin folder. It works fine. Don’t have Vista though.

  38. Gordie W.
    August 26th, 2007 | 16:52

    The Keygen & crack is is within the folder “Hatred” when you unzip the zip files and open up the iso file, both keygen and crack are in there.
    When it asks for the password to install, just click on keygen.exe, and click generate, and go back to the password portion and the password automatically goes in there.
    When you go to play online though, that password will not work.
    I tried generating 10 passwords and none of them let me log onto online.
    Does anyone know how to generate a password to play online?.

  39. John
    August 26th, 2007 | 16:55

    when i open my zipfiles i only get the iso in it, nothing else, no crack or keygen :S

    Gordie could u upload it somewhere ? it takes like 30 secs ..

    nvm im downloading another version, what a waste, thx for nothing

  42. TC
    August 26th, 2007 | 17:20

    John, you need to open up the .iso file (it’ll open with WinRAR) or mount the .iso with Daemon tools and browse the virtual drive. You’ll see the HATRED folder, which contains the keygen and crack (the .exe goes in the /bin folder in the TW08 default installation directory, recommend backing up the old one in case you need to patch at a later date).

  43. Poosh
    August 26th, 2007 | 17:26

    does the other version you downloadin have key gen or crack?

  44. Jhonny2Knucles
    August 26th, 2007 | 17:26

    look john..im tell u right now step by step..
    1.mount the image
    2.instead of installing go to your drive where the image is mounted.
    3.right click on the mounted image choose explore
    4.look in the hatred folder
    all is there no problem.

    now stop twiddling your socks at the cpu and play some golf that simple..simple

    “You’ll see the HATRED folder, which contains the keygen and crack (the .exe goes in the /bin folder in the TW08 default installation directory”

    The keygen lets me install the game but doesn’t let me play online.
    Any help with that please.

    “Smitty0725″—If you have installed the game.
    Go into windows explorer, find the folder default folder where the game installed, Easports,Tigerwoodspgatour08, and there is a folder named “bin”. Copy the “TW2008.exe” file into that folder and ovewrite the existing file. Hope that helps.

    I have tried this game and has any of you experienced a problem with the swinging?

    The backswing goes well but when the time of impact comes, the computer freezes for a couple of seconds before the ball flies away. It sounds like a graphics problem but thats the only time I have a problem with it,,

    any ideas?

  70. EmperorAtahualpa
    August 27th, 2007 | 12:35

    @ rEY: simply delete the original file first probably does the trick.

  71. EmperorAtahualpa
    August 27th, 2007 | 12:46

    I see a lot of people are having problems installing this game correctly, but just to let you guys know it’s definitely a good crack and any problem probably has to do either with the game itself or with your computer.

    The game works perfectly on my computer. I’m running the game on a 64-bit Vista machine with 2GB RAM, 2×2.4GHz CPU and 8800GTX video card, so that’s quite a top-end system. I have all graphics options set to maximum and the game looks quite good, but nothing extremely spectacular.

  72. rEY
    August 27th, 2007 | 12:58

    thank u but now the game always terminally aborts before the course loads. is it my tech?

  73. EmperorAtahualpa
    August 27th, 2007 | 13:03

    Yes probably. Does your computer meet the minimum requirements to play this game?

  74. rEY

  75. smoothyuk
    August 27th, 2007 | 13:25

    I guess you guys complaining about the commentary have never played an EA Tiger Woods title before. You’ll hear no commentary or crowd reactions until you reach a later stage as you’re starting off as a hack, you wouldn’t expect a personal commentator and roaring spectators if you went to play at your local golf course would you?

  76. Foggi
    August 27th, 2007 | 13:36

    @ EmperorAtahualpa

    It is not a cmputer problem when the game crashes at loading screen, I have a higher spec PC than yours and its does the same for me.

  77. hacheur
    August 27th, 2007 | 14:13

    My specs are 2GB RAM, 3Ghz Dual Core,, Radeon x1950Pro gfx.. With this stuff it shouldnt be a tech problem should it?

  90. smoothyuk
    August 27th, 2007 | 22:19

    @ crazy guy

    It totally depends what mode you start with I guess, obviously you took a different route in 07, but if you play the career mode (or whatever EA want to call it) you shouldn’t get crowd and commentary right off the bat.

    And for the record (if I interpreted your tone correctly) I didn’t mean for my comment to sound sarcastic.

    Anybody else having choppy gameplay issues? It is fine for a few shots and then it will be choppy for a few, i.e. balls hangs in flight, poor response when using arrow keys to line up a putt etc.

    I tried lowering the video options, but no difference.

    August 28th, 2007 | 03:22

    I installed the game perfectly and it works. I am also having a problem with the lag with swinging the club(very annoying). I was gonna buy a xbox 360 controller for windows today but I’d rather play this game on PS3 or 360. The game is A LOT different than the console versions which is utterly dissapointing.

    The console versions are easier to control, more functional, easier and fun to control. I dont know what happened when they made this game but I hope there is some way to make it better.

    Does anyone have the controls for this? I dont wanna use the mousepad on my comp. Its messing up my swing

    never mind i figured it out… now the only problem is that the crashes when i try to load any course after the loading bar fills up… i see that other people have the same problem. I even changed the resolution to 1024 x 720 but still doesnt work.. i’m using vista. So it must be that my system doesnt met the minimal requirements??!

    I have the problems with the game too, but I think we have to wait until final version is released. Please check “TW.ini” file – it says:

    This is nonsense, whatever I do the directx problem cannot be solved. Running XP 32 bit on c2duo 2 gig ram. I seriously wonder about those that did get it working, what did you do? Nothing works: changing the cfg file doesnt work, setting the comp mode to 2000 or 98/me results in not starting setup up at all. I am starting to believe it’s a hoax and that there are some bad versions out there for which hatred cant and wont take responsibility.

    Hi Guys,
    I have installed a few games before but this one seems to have a problem. Replacing the TGW2008.exe with the cracked one and i get a quick black dos box open and then close, thats it. Is there a problem with the cracked .exe? (It is in the bin Dir and has replaced the old .exe) If its the original it obviously asks for the DVD.
    Appreciate any suggestions
    Regards

  114. TC
    August 29th, 2007 | 13:09

    Looking through all these comments it seems that this game doesn’t run on Vista; has anyone got this working on Vista?

    I am running it on Windows XP sp2 (Athlon 2500+, 1.5gig, 7600GT).

    To install I did the following:

    1. Open any one of the .rar files and unpack the .iso that’s inside.

    2. Use Daemon tools to run a virtual drive; mount the .iso.

    3. Browse virtual drive for HATRED folder (may need to “View as list” in Windows to see it) and run keygen.

    4. Install TW08 using created key.

    5. Browse virtual drive for HATRED folder and copy TW08.exe from there to “…Tiger Woods 08/bin/”.

    6. Run via desktop shortcut (created during install).

    I found no need to change compatability mode and don’t get engine.dll error. I hope this helps some of you!

  115. TC
    August 29th, 2007 | 13:35

    @ 104. Kyle

    Oh and if the mounted image doesn’t Autorun, simply go to My Computer and double-click the virtual drive from there. (You can also right-click and open/browse it from here in order to find the HATRED folder).

  116. Philbill
    August 29th, 2007 | 15:14

    Hi TC,
    I did exactly the same.
    and the new crack executable does not run properly in the Bin folder. I have no idea why. It is 4 Mb as opposed to the original 8Mb one which i thought was considerably less. I thought it might still be compressed ^^ but its not.

  118. Philbill
    August 29th, 2007 | 15:34

    It would seem that extracting the files I needed from the hatred folder using Power ISO was not working. i have just used Magic ISO and everything is fine.

  119. TC
    August 29th, 2007 | 16:28

    @ Philbill

    Interesting that it wasn’t working with PowerISO, maybe this will help others. Yes the cracked .exe is half the size.

    The htd-tw08 files are all the same RAR archive (containing the .iso) but split into smaller .rar packets. You’ll notice that whichever one you open will show the same .iso inside (should have this symbol -> next to it to show it continues in another .rar) but you’ll need them all in order to unpack it.

  123. DXHelp
    August 29th, 2007 | 21:35

    For all those having DX problems -

    1 – Open Windows Explorer, browse to the TW disc, right click on Autorun.exe, select the compatibility tab and change to Windows 2000 (not 98/ME). Ok the dialog, and re-run setup by double clicking the Autorun.exe.

    If 1 does not work, then method 2 is -

    Copy the entire contents of the disc to a temporary directory on your local harddrive (e.g. C:\TWInstall). Then, Windows Explorer, browse to this directory, then into the Autorun directory. Open the file Autorun.cfg in Notepad (or similar). Find the line DirectXVersion=9.0c, and change the 9.0c to 0. Save the file and re-run setup using the Autorun link (retain the Win2K compatibility).

    Seems a known issue on this install as is mentioned on the installer’s readme.txt file !!!!!

    Everyone do not waste your time downloading this game.I eventually got it to work and honestly it’s the worst pc golf game I have ever played. I’ve had nearly all pga games in the past and this version is so bad it’s even worse than last years pathetic attempt. The graphics look awful (cartoon) like and even the main menus are awful. EA shouldn’t even have been allowd to release this for pc until they come up with something on the same lines as the console versions. GO BUY THIS FOR CONSOLE

    August 29th, 2007 | 23:12

    When I mount it on Daemon, I get a message “The application failed to initialize properly (0xc00000005). Click on OK to terminate the applicate” That’s where I’m stuck.

    I also noticed after unpacking, there is another RAR file 0compressed which has a few more folders. Where am I going wrong??

  126. kenleej
    August 30th, 2007 | 19:48

    im guessing ea will come up with a patch maybe? to fix all these problems, how could u realease a game with so many bugs in it? i dont get it, i actually dont mind the game itself and its graphics aren’t the best but after i turned them up they were better, the water and everything, but besides the fact, its really annoying when your trying to do the tiger challenge and your doing good and it just randomly crashes on you..

  127. Vitorio
    August 30th, 2007 | 20:28

    If someone have directx problem and change compatibility doesnt work, try this solution – go to start menu –> run and in the run box type in
    d:\\autorun.exe -DXInstalled where d:\\ is your optical drive letter. This will tell the game to skip the DX installation step and the license agreement. Worked first time for me. (i find it on easports forums) it finaly works for me.

    okay there seems to be a problem with the crack that is given with the game sometimes it works as people have said and some times is doesnt and i am one of those that doesnt work unfortunately here are the basic steps i did to install the game that is not working if i am doing anything wrong please reply

    1. mounted the .rar file using daemon tools
    2. installed the game and the keygenerator worked perfectly
    3. inserted the NO CD crack in to the bin folder and it never asked me to replace it like most games usually would it just created a shortcut inside the bin folder
    4. hopeing that the game would work i tryed opening the game and it just said please insert the original cd so the crack must not work

    if i have done anything wrong please say

  136. Sshblack
    September 3rd, 2007 | 00:39

    Ok people with problems listen up!

    I’ll do my best to answer everyone’s questions, and apologise if I sound patronizing but want to be as a basic and clear as possible.

    Problems with Keygen:

    download the TW08 game file from rapidshare or whatever… unzip the entire thing into a folder to keep it all together. You’ll get a large ISO file the end of it. You will need to “mount” (basically put the entire 2 gig ISO file) on to a dvd disc. If you need help mounting, write “mounting ISO files” or something like that in to google. This should give you a step by step guide to mounting this game. Once you have the disc created you now have an artificial copy of the game on a disc. When the disc is now re-inserted back into your PC it will believe that this is a copy of the game. When prompted “what would you like to do with this disc” explore the files on the disc. Another way is go Start>my computer>right click on the disc> explore. There will be a folder named HATRED. Open this and there is a program called keygen. running this app will generate a cd key which tricks the game in to thinking you have a valid licence key. copy 3 different ones down. (keep re-genning) When installing it should then prompt you for that key. Type it in and continue with the installation.

    Problems with Vista:

    If you are running Vista let me tell you now…. cut your losses. I have spent 3 days trying every trick in the book and have constantly hit the “wrong disc” brick wall. I have copied the original to hard drive and changed the autorun direct x problem. I have tried running the autorun.exe under windows 2000 compatibility tabs. I have been to every forum and tried every trick. It seems the hatred boys underestimated the sheer nastiness of Vista. I can only suggest waiting for it to be released and find a copy of the engine.dll and see what that does.

    Direct X problems.

    Explore the disc and find the file “autorun.cfg” file and open it with notepad. Change the Direct x option from 9.0c to 0. Then save it, making sure you don’t change any of the filename or save it as a .txt file. This seems to be the only working solution out there.

    —————————————–

    If you have tried these options and it still doesn’t work, go out and steal the game, trust me after 3 days of trying to figure this crap out, theft is a real tempting solution.

    Hope this enlightened.

    September 3rd, 2007 | 23:35

    Its all easy people the games works, it did take me a while to figure it out though, as for playing online, just go to walmart pay for the game get the cd code then take it back (cant get money back) but get another game 2 for 1 deal then your set or take it back and say cd wasnt in case but put up a good bitch about it, or you can keep complaining in here.

    Appears that after first run and you HAVE made yourself a profile, not all the required elements are copied over to the My Documents\Tiger Woods PGA TOUR 08 folder resulting in the game exiting whenever you try to play PGA Tour or the Fed-Ex matches. To cure this go to My Documents\Tiger Woods PGA TOUR 08\Career\Players and open Tiger Woods folder. Inside there is a GCFS folder, open it and copy the entire contents (or just those elements missing from you own profile) over to YOUR profile directory and paste them into your profile’s GCFS folder. Restart the game and you should be able to play both PGA Tour and Fed-Ex now without the game exiting…

    Listed below are the minimum requirements for TW08.

    The engine.dll is a core file. DLL (Dynamic Link Library) files are almost like a EXE file. So the error could be something to do with you graphics spec

    No doubt if I am wrong someone else will hopefully leave the solution for you

    Processor Intel 933MHz or better
    RAM 256 MB
    Video Card 64 MB DirectX 9.0c NVIDIA GeForce 3 64MB or ATI Radeon 8500 64MB
    Sound Card DirectX 9-compliant sound card

    Can some one post a full guide to getting this game installed, no jargon, no messing about. We all want to play this game. There has been 174 posts, upto this point (including mine) and the question, has anyone actually played this game yet, must be posed.

    from back to front, we all want a guide.

    can anyone shed any light on the crashing of this game at the end of the load screen. I have got the latest DX updates, adhere to the system spec requirements, done all the things suggested. I cant however change the bit about the dx in the autorun.cgf file, it says it read only and I cant get round it. If anyone can play this game and has had the problem, please share.

    cheers guys

    If some of you are still having trouble with Tiger Woods 08 on Vista (files not found) look in the installation directory (program files\EA Sports\Tiger Woods PGA Tour 08) and there should be a directory called “bin” (program files\EA Sports\Tiger Woods PGA Tour 08\bin). All the files that are supposedly “missing” are in there. Copy all those files (excluding the TW2008.exe file) to the directory up one level (program files\EA Sports\Tiger Woods PGA Tour 08) and then run the program. It should work.

    alright no one has had a real answer. heres what i did, tell me what i did wrong.

    Extracted .iso file
    Mounted .iso file to f: drive using daemon
    Installed TW08 and used keygen in hatred folder
    (when installed, did not create desktop icon for some reason)
    explored f: drive and program file for tw08
    tried to put TW2008 from hatred folder into original bin folder (C:\Program Files\EA SPORTS\Tiger Woods PGA TOUR 08\bin)

    when i put the file from the hatred folder into the bin folder it doesnt make me overwrite original file. theyre different sizes. what do i do?

  182. turtle
    October 3rd, 2007 | 22:51

    also, when i try to click on the original or the autorun in the actual folder, it says “insert original disk” or whatever. wtf?

  183. Deborah
    October 3rd, 2007 | 23:36

    Ive deleted the original TW2008 file in the bin folder first and then copied the one from the HATRED folder in its place but still nothing, im dying for a shot of this game, someone help a gal in despair :) and then when I click the icon it just flashes on and off the screen even when I go to START/PROGRAMS/etc

    Easy guide to install:

    Before extracting check your downloaded folder has these files:
    - 29 zipped up files of 48,829kb on of 12,310kb
    - htd-tw08.sfv (1kb)
    - hatred msinfo document (8kb)

    Then to install:
    - extract contents of downloaded folder to somewhere safe
    - winrar should create one large rar file
    - extract this to same location
    - run setup (the one with the ea logo), NOT AUTORUN
    - open keygen in hatred folder, use generated key when prompted. It should automatically fill in the number for you.
    - follow usual installation process, select yes when asked if you want to install flash etc.
    - close internet window when ea sports is opened it just slows everything down.
    - watch game install
    - finish installation
    - extract zipped folders (ones ending with compressed) in htd-tw08 folder, overwrite all files
    - in BIN folder that appears, rename tw2008 exe to original or something
    - copy tw2008 from hatred folder into BIN folder
    - double click new tw2008 and play

    Game works perfectly for me in all formats, I have nothing special on my pc. Haven’t tried online have no desire to.

    Did not need to mount any image or iso at all

  186. steve
    October 7th, 2007 | 04:45

    fat james what do you mean by this?

    - extract zipped folders (ones ending with compressed) in htd-tw08 folder, overwrite all files
    - in BIN folder that appears, rename tw2008 exe to original or something
    - copy tw2008 from hatred folder into BIN folder

    do you mean to extract the 0compressed.zip into the directory where tw-08 is installed eg c:\Program Files\Tiger Woods 2008? and then replace the files? i dont get what you mean in the above? ive tryed everything to play this tw-08 HATRED but, it installs ok, it starts ok but when ever try to play the game i allways get ‘could not initialize the selected course’ error? or if i try and play quick game it just goes to the desktop? anyone has any idea how to fix this dreaded ‘could not initialize the selected course’ error’

    btw: im running vista ultimate and have tw-07 also installed!

    You need to copy the crack into the bin folder, then you’ll be fine.
    So C:Programfiles/easports/bin.

    I install everything fine, but from reading some of these comments people are loading the game via the desktop icon. I’ve tried installing it 3 times and never got a desktop icon on any occasion. As a result when I try to load the game using the Start > All Programs menu a black DOS box appears, then disappears, then nothing happens!

    What’s going on?!

    I have this game installed on Windows Vista, 2.33 GHZ dual core, 3G RAM. It randomly crashes, which I see happens to many, however I haven’t read a post where someone complains about how long it takes between holes, typically 20 seconds staring at the scorecard. Anyone else have this problem?

    I previoulsy had 2006 running on XP, 3GHz pentium 4 and it was much faster, and no crashing problems.

    November 8th, 2007 | 21:33

Only thing i can think of is to crack it but not sure how. Where is the /bin folder and what is the TW08 default installation directory.

    PLEASE someone help it would be very much appreciated

    January 18th, 2008 | 23:38

    I am having the same problem the game crashes the minute the load is finished. Just shuts off without any comment or details. I have single handedly read every post here in regards to all the problem people have been having with the game. Unfortunatly not one has seemed to be in regards to this issue particuliar issue. I’ve been following this forum for a while now, and hesitated to post seeing as how somebody would probably end up giving a solution to this loading crash. But there is no solution yet found or at least posted here… So I ask if anyone can help us out in regards to why the game crashes the minute you finish LOADING ANY WHATSOEVER mode of the game, it would certainly be appreciated.

    Thank you and good golfing !!

    Hi guys, have FINALLY got this to work, but have had 4 different downloads, this one definitely works 100%!!!

    Tiger Woods PGA Tour 08 [English][PCDVD][WwW.GamesTorrents.CoM]

    I’m a new user at too at downloading, bloody iso. bin. cue. etc, so here is the idiots guide to installing it!

    1.after downloading double click on the first RAR file- a brown coloured book with winrar file under it

    2. it will take you to winrar and simply show you the whole file as 1 image file- htd-tw08.iso

    3. to make life easier I created a NEW folder in my tiger woods download folder called “extract”-but call it anything you like, just makes sense to keep everything together!

    4. click on the image file in win rar, then click on extract to, then find the “extract” folder that you have created and press ok, it will now start extracting all the files to your new “extract” folder.

    5. when finished open “extract”folder, I put the iso image file-it’s the only file there, into power iso or magic iso, etc.

    6. open the file in your iso coverter, then place a blank dvd and burn it to dvd-though you could burn it to a virtual drive-haven’t tried that one yet!!!

    7. while it’s burning have a look at ALL the files on the opened iso -you’ll see it starts with folder AUTORUN and ends with TW08_inst.exe

    Look down six folders till you get to HATRED, double click and 3 exe files open up.

    The first is just credits.

    The second is the keygen.

    The third is the installation crack.

    8. So the dvd is burned, install, and when asked for keygen just double click the keygen file and it will automatically fill in the key-otherwise just write it in manually!

    9. it will continue loading-I did’t worry about the online play yet, as wanted to make sure this works on my pc first!

    10. restart the computer, then click on your “extract” folder, click on folder HATRED and the tgw.exe file has changed to a green golf club icon-this is your crack.

    11. in programe files open ea sports, open bin folder and DELETE the tgw.exe file, it’ll be 8mb, then copy the cracked one into the bin file-it’ll be 4mb.

    12. close all programs, then click on start / all programs / ea sports / tiger woods, and hey presto, it works!!!

    Like I said haven’t tried online yet so no idea!!

    Also my graphics card is OLD Nvidia Gfx 5600, 2.8 p4, 2mb ram, so not great but played it pretty well!!! Made the stupid mistake of buying it for the playstation 2-absolute crap, this is at least 20% better-and being a golfer I LOVED the ball flight and the improved putting and short game options- gonna have to get a new motherboard/cpu/graphics card and try it out!!!

    Hope this has been off some help-and to the experts out there, we’re not lazy or stupid just beginners, so a little help would be really appreciated-don’t forget you were once a beginner too!!!

    Laters, Big Al7

    Hi all this has been driving me craaazzzyyy for months, literally since last August since it was released.
    I am the girlfriend who bought him the bloody game, and we’ve had nothing but problems. I contacted EA website and they tested my computer and all passed, supposedly all enough spec to play game, I really am At a loss as to what to do next. Have closed all pograms, shut down security even had a computer expert round (which has cost us a small fortune) I am with windows vista I have read all comments on this site and I am beginning to believe EA Sports are making a small fortune, because something somewhere stinks.Sorry (first timer) your games are not worth it for this hassle. I await your replies from all who have a bit more knowlegde than me!!! A very bewildered(newbie)EA (girlfriend of a golfing fanatic) fanatic but only if he could play the game!!!! Exausted phew!!

    My mate was also having the same problems with blank screens and crashing but with this set o drivers we run at max resolution and sliders all maxed out.
    I cannot belive EA Sports or nvida do not know about this site or is this guy just a bit cleverer than they want to admit

    HI there, i am getting slightly annoyed with this game now…

    Downloaded it from 3 different torrent sites now, and the last one is definitely supposed to work. Tiger_Woods_PGA_Tour_08__PCDVD__English_French__www_newpct_com_-Fenopy.com
    But every time i go on to it the play now it just shuts down the game, and every time i try to play a tournament it says: “could not initiate the selected course”

    Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

    Thanx

    ps did install the crack and i’m running XP and a pretty decent pc, so its not that my pc isn’t good enough for the game…

    After reading all these posts… i finally figured out the problem for the crashing…. at the end of my patients, i decided to play with the graphics options and low and behold… the problem for the crashing game was the shader level… all you need to do is start up the game, go to options.. go to manual settings…and turn off shader level… this will take care of all you problems with the game crashing at course loading… also.. if anyone still has any trouble with installing the game..i have a solution… just send me an email (johnq56@cwjamaica.com)

    Add my name to the list of people who get the warning about not being able load the selected course. Every mode I select, even the driving range, has a blank course list. No music, no sound in general actually, it’s even devoid of the EA Sports loading video when you first start the game.
    Created my golfer just fine and configured all settings without a hitch. Just that one problem.

    Hopefully a working version will surface soon, cause I’m out of options.
    Take care everybody…

    Quote from other forum… solved my crashing problem. Many thanks to thecableguy003:

    Hi…. for people suffering with crashes when trying to create a new player…. I am assuming you have moved your “My Documents” folder onto a seperate partition as I had done. Thanks to EA’s coding you will need to restore the whole “my documents” folder back to it’s default location. Just right click on My Documents, Properties, then restore default.
    This worked a treat for me. You can find the original thread on the EA Forums here http://forum.easports.co.uk/viewtopic.php?t=9819&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=15

    I’m having a problem too. When i am playing (it does not matter which course it is) sometimes the game freezes, but i can hear the sounds of the game. It looks like a screenshot with sound. xD

    Can you help me?

    Hello,
    you have some problems with your favorite game or app, installed with InstallShield. Try this :

    in \Program Files\Fichiers communs\ or \Program Files\Common Files\, find and rename directory “InstallShield”.
    Uninstall your game or app, and re install.

    Try and tell me more….

    This is a corrupt player profile issue – usually with Tiger Woods profile.

    Solution: Launch Game, Choose a Player other than Tiger, Play

    Tiger won't show up anymore but you'll have to find another fix for that.

    NOTE: This is a fix for when the game launches and you go to Play Now or select PGA Tour and game crashes.

    I get a black screen as soon as I start the game. I have installed the game by Hatred, read this page and followed all the instructions. The task manager shows the game as "running". I have a dell laptop with all the system requirements necessary to play the game (except maybe the screen resolution 1280×800). Any suggestions about this problem?

    I haven't had any problems with the install of TW08 but I actually downloaded mine from Vuze which actually is a simple interface for downloading torrents. I got TW08 and everything was very simple to install with great directions. There was one person on here that gave great and simple directions. Here is what was in my read me before I did anything.

    Install Notes:

    Burn or mount the image with magiciso v5.5.

    Install it.

    Generate key with keygen.exe

    To install the crack copy the file TW2008 and paste it in
    C:\Program Files\EA SPORTS\Tiger Woods PGA TOUR 08\bin.
    accept yes to replace.

    Torrent downloaded from http://www.Demonoid.com

    Can't get any easier than that. I didn't even have to use more than the first code from the keygen.exe. The only thing that I'm finding is that I cannot play online at all, it says I have a invalid registration code. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    My System Specs:
    Windows XP SP3
    2GB RAM
    320 GB Seagate HD
    Intel Core 2 CPU T5200 @ 1.6GHz
    NVIDIA GeForce Go 7600 256MB (have game resolution of 1440×990)

    ***Use Tiger Wood 2004 as I did and it works perfectly!***

    Same problem as everyone else. Everything installs fine, game loads fine, course loads, and then the game crashes. I have the computer to play the game. I tried the "shader level" idea, but it didn't work. There has to be a way to fix this. If anyone out there has the solution, that would be greatly appreciated by many so people.

    I've mounted the iso and all that, but I can't even install it. I've tried autorun.exe, setup.exe, and TW08inst. All it says is, 'the application failed to initialize properly (0xc0000005). Click on OK to terminate the application.' I've tried tunning it in compatibility mode for 2000 but it still doesn't work.

    here is what i did
    -unzip
    -unzip the resulting file
    -unzip the 3 0compressed files
    -install
    -copy and paste crack
    -mount htd tw08 file (type of file is wiwrararchiver)
    so im not sure if i mounted the correct file, though i think i did. another thing of note is that my computer doesnt have a disc drive, i dont know if this makes a diff cause the mounting appears to have worked. when i try to start it, the tiger woods 08 window pops up, and i click play, and then nothing else happens.

    anyone that knows what their doing know whats goin on here, thanks.

    i am having the same problem as ribz:

    After applying the crack to the bin folder and trying to run it, im faced with this error:

    This applcation has failed to start because Engine.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem.

    any one get this figured out?

    cheers,
    J

    -

    Answer :

    copy the crack in the main folder c:/games/TigerWoods08

    and in bin.. should not come engine.dll fail….

    peace :D
