Personally, I don't know any other company that does this.

- Egosoft -> X3
- Microsoft -> FSX, once activated no disk is required
- Sonalyst -> Dangerous Waters
- Lead Pursuit -> Falcon 4.0 AF

A big to Ubisoft for removing that requirement from SH4.

So, I switched directories to try the addon: I switch the big install directory, but I just renamed the one under "My Documents", not switching. The SH4 directory associated with the addon is "SH4_UBOAT".

So I try to start the game, and up pops a dialog box:

A required security module cannot be activated.
This program cannot be executed (5024).

Please have a look at http://www.securom.com/message.asp?m=module$c=5025 for futher, more detailed information.

And there's only an "Ok" button there.

In other words, the game won't create a new SH4 directory for me. It won't work. Now, how about the SecuROM directory under my Application Data folder?

I rename it SecuROMx, and I get the same error.

Guess what? Don't try this at home. I reset everything to run the add-on, and I still get the error.

EDIT: OK, this is all Operator Headspace Error. I started Process Explorer to test RR's thesis, and promptly forgot what the heck I was doing.

So, you can't run Process Explorer if you want SH4 working? I have verified this. Sheesh.
