Both the racine Dominions.exe and the win64 ones work
This version use the key inside the file "dom5key" located in the folder, not the one in appdata FOR MULTIPLAYER YOU HAVE TO MANUALLY EDIT THE DOM5KEY FILE IN THE MAIN FOLDER TO ALL HAVE A DIFFERENT CD KEY ; ANYTHING WORK, JUST CHANGE SOME RANDOM NUMBER USE NOTEPAD
I don't want to believe this, i've been a pirate all my life and this has never happened. Anyways i appreciate and respect the work the staff do, so thank you. No hard feelings.
Thanks for uploading the game, sadly I never had any problems with the game before updating to patch 5.51b, the game eventually reaches to a point where it gets stuck loading battle phases when creating a new turn. Hope you can update it to a newer version (5.53 is out already).
Unfortunately, version 5.51b hangs during battle resolution in mid-game (when your empire is large enough for you to care) Hopefully we will get a better version soon.
I Agree, I'm having the same problem and it even happens on smaller maps, I tried to check if there was a solution online but found nothing. Hopefully someone can update the game to a newer version (The current version is 5.53)
Does anyone know how to get the linux version working? 1111-1111-1111-1111-111 doesn't work as serial key like on windows. I can only run it with wine. Also .48 is out.
for anyone have lagging "Omg I fixed it! I created a shortcut for the normal dominions5.exe (not the one in win64 folder) and put --noglfinish in target, now it doesn't redscreen crash!"
D 5.42 works if you create a "dom5key" file with "5334" in it. Nope, it crashes every turn. ----Rexar: ----Omg I fixed it!

I try what Rexar said, i keep getting the red screen, but it no longer crashes, not useful because, I can't see anything, only hear audio and do blind clicks.

On both win64 and exe from main folder game will ask about cd key. Only on exe from main folder you can enter cd key 1111-1111-1111-1111-111 on which game will work
5.36 is broken! It's unplayable if you use the dominions5.exe in the main folder, less then 1 fps apart from the main menu.. when I use the dominions5.exe inside the win64 folder this problem is gone but the CD-key crack from the 5.29 version no longer works. it closes the game and a window pops-up showing bad cd-key (which removes the dom5key in Roaming). LOL I figured out a way to get past the CD-key! you break the CD-key check by spamming numbers while you repeatedly hit the OK button! HAHA GENIUS I celebrated to early, if someone wants to try I used 5334 as CD-key (I spam broke this through the CD-key check, I haven't managed to do this again though but for some reason 5334 always works as my dom5key) I'm able to play the game, but I keep getting red screens after every turn then it crashes, this also happend when I watch a battle report after 5 seconds. Omg I fixed it! I created a shortcut for the normal dominions5.exe (not the one in win64 folder) and put --noglfinish in target, now it doesn't redscreen crash! Maybe the above information will help ya'll (with properly cracking the game if any experienced crackers read this.)
İ have requested 5.36 updates several time since it came out, why doesnt it gets updated to the latest version, could someone at least reply back ? Thank you for your work.
I've put in requests for each of the last two updates (v5.32 & 5.34). I was told by a moderator that the more requested a game is, the quicker it's likely to be addressed. So if anyone else wants to see this updated, make a request in the appropriate section ("Game Request" link above).
I just hope this huge wall of text doesn't stop people from finding my comment on how to actually get the game working.. since a lot of people got stuck trying to figure the serial part..That would be ironic, since it woudln't be helping some people.
I wonder if You realize how awesome You are. It's brilliantly written, and I had a few laughs while I got hypnotized by the lecture. I never do this but I read it out loud. It's awesome on so many levels... Thank You for chosing to spend Your time on me and basically explain to me everything and more I need to know about everything and all. And no worries, yea I was not in the know when it comes to the whole request thing as You said because it's not explained in detail on the site, I understand Your slight frustration at the beginning, to be blunt, the internet is flooded with masses that are unaware of a lot of things, pile them up and You will get an endless stream of the same questions requests and pointless waste of time. Thankfully You found in Your heart thanks to Your brilliant mind to mitigate the flood of unaware people, one less guy (me), thousands to go, You should probably copy/paste this somewhere where people will see, since You put an effort to present Your thoughts - would be a shame if only I could read it -, this forum (comment section under a particular game wich isn't exactly all that popular) is a tad narrow. Thank You Scott for being one of the awesome ones
Oh, right? Why do people ask for updates in the Game Request thingy then, can You explain? I just mimic the behaviour of others, no reall idea what am I doing. There is an option on the Game Request tab to ask for an Update( You are only allowed to request ONE game per day! (A request counts if it’s an upload, update, or re-upload).), people seem to ask a lot for updates. How say, my request, is different from theirs? I'm new to this site, hence those are sincere questions. Are You saying their requests are pointless as well, and they should stop too or am I doing something wrong here
Could You update to version 5.26, please? It's my understanding it's quite a relevant update, also thank You for this upload! P.S I do hope me asking humbly for an update just as everyone else always does doesn't hurt You in any way, shape or form (doesn't make You or anyone else for that matter angry). I figured creating a buzz about the need (of an update) is quite important, by buzz I mean -adding a comment to show that people care about this product- if it weren't for my silly question for example, I wouldn't create an account just now, I would not see and click on the adds and all that money generating mess. Stay safe and take care, again , thank You! P.S 2 Figured out the "Game Request" tab
Thank You for the information, I suppose all we can do is have our fingers crossed and hope for the best, maybe some talented programmer will take on the challenge. I will continue to use the "Game Request" function of this website (every 24 hours one can point to something - is my understanding - so I will try to point the clever ones this direction). Thank You for the reply, please be safe.
When playing multiplayer with hamachi (direct link) the server gets stuck on resolving battles... Any clue? would be a lot of help, ive looked everywhere
Hey anyone else experiencing there anti virus reacting to the dominion launch file? I have never had it react to any other games i downloaded off this site and others ( games like darkest dungeon,northgard, kerbal space program,factorio, shadow of mordor,etc ). Is it anything to worry about?
Yeah Revolt is the crack group that cracked it, and the Revolt.dll is the crack connected to the game .exe I still have to disable my AV, but thats ok i guess.
FOR MULTIPLAYER YOU HAVE TO MANUALLY EDIT THE DOM5KEY FILE IN THE MAIN FOLDER TO ALL HAVE A DIFFERENT CD KEY ; ANYTHING WORK, JUST CHANGE SOME RANDOM NUMBER
USE NOTEPAD

So updates can be sporadic.

5.35 is a must! it finally has a x64 bit version
You're welcome.
