How to Play

The game with NoDVD has been tested on Windows 7 64-bit and Windows 10, it works fine. The game supports widescreen and high resolutions up to 4K

Install & play guide:

  • Mount the disc image. You will need the utility for mounting disc image files, like WinCDEmu, UltraISO, Alcohol 52%/Alcohol 120% or Daemon Tools Lite
  • Install the game (if autorun doesn't work - simply launch the installation from EASetup.exe inside the disc). It is recommended to install the game not in default path, but in some other, non-system folder, like C:/Games/Create
  • At the end of the installation un-check the box "Install EA Download Manager", it is not required for the game
  • After you installed the game - use NoDVD, simply copy CreateGame.exe from the archive and put it into Create/pc directory
  • Open Create/pc directory and find Create.exe and CreateGame.exe. Right click on both executable files - Properties - Compatibility - Set "Run this app in compatibility mode with Windows 7" and "Run as administrator"
  • Launch the game and play. If the game doesn't work in compatibility mode with Windows 7 - try to launch it in compatibility mode with other version of Windows (Windows XP, Vista, etc.)

Notes:

  • If the installation doesn't start - try to launch Autorun.exe or EASetup.exe in compatibility mode with old version of Windows (98, 2000 or XP)
  • We added text-file with a lot of serial keys, but if none of them work - use the keygen to generate a new serial key. Keygen may trigger some warnings by your antivirus, but it is safe to use, here's VirusTotal scan report, all warnings are generic, about suspicious file. You can run the keygen in Windows Sandbox, for 100% safety
  • The game has the support for multiple languages: English, French, German, Italian, Spanish, Polish & Russian. The game automatically selects the installation language depending on the language of your system
  • It is recommended to install all versions of Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable and NET Framework for the correct work of the game. Also it is recommended to install K-Lite Codec Pack for the correct work of in-game videos
  • The game works on DirectX 9, so if you're using Windows 8, 8.1, 10 or 11 - you need to enable DirectPlay: Go to Control Panel, and select 'Programs'. Select 'Turn Windows features on and off', click on 'Legacy Components' and check the box 'DirectPlay'. Select OK, once the installation is done, restart your computer
  • The game doesn't have any strict DRM protection, only simple disc check. To disable disc check and play without the disc - use NoDVD, it is "cracked" exe-file with disc check removed
  • If the game continues to load endlessly, disconnect your Internet connection before launching the game. Or add the rule in Windows Firewall for Create.exe and CreateGame.exe, and and block these apps from connecting to the Internet. Watch this video tutorial on how to block an app from accessing the Internet by using Windows Firewall
  • If you have problem with missing sound effects/disappearing sound - set sound quality to 24 bit, 48000 Hz. Read this guide how to do that
  • If you stuck on some level - you can watch this or this video walkthrough

Looks like the game is failing to launch for me on Windows 11. Installation works fine, but even with compatibility mode and trying to run as admin, no dice.
