1.- Install Daemon Tools.
Visit this page and click on Download
http://www.disc-tools.com/download/daemon
Once you've downloaded the file, run it. You have a nice installation guide here:
http://wiki.wsu.edu/ctowiki/Installing_and_Using_Daemon_Tools
2.- Mount the Lightwave image. (the lightwave_seven.iso file)
If the installation doesn't start authomatically enter the folder "Install_Lightwave" and double click on "setup.exe". After a few screens you'll get to a screen where you can choose the kind of installation you want, typical, minimal, or custom. Choose the custom install and check all boxes.
3.- Update Lightwave
In the Lightwave folder you'll find a folder called "LW75bUpdate". Inside it, there is a file called "LightWave75b.exe". Double click on the file to run it and it will update Lightwave to the 7.5 version.
4.- Apply the patch
Inside the "LW75bUpdate" folder there is a folder called "LightWave3D_v7.5b crack". Enter the folder and move the "LightWave3D_7.5b_WebUpdate_crack.exe" file to the "Programs" folder in your Lightwave install folder (if you haven't changed it, it'll probably be "C:\LightWave_3D_7.0", so you should have to move it to the "C:\LightWave_3D_7.0\Programs" folder). Once there, double click on "LightWave3D_7.5b_WebUpdate_crack.exe", and in the window opened click on "Apply Patch"

And that should be it. If you have any problems don't be afraid to ask questions.
Hi Victor, thanks mate thats very kind. I am downloading the disc tools file and will try to install it later on today.write u later :) Eric
ReplyDeleteHi Victor, I've gotten up to the last part of installation. When i click apply patch it comes up with lightwav.exe : missing or already open, and how lightwav. exe not found in current directory. Any ideas what i'm doing wrong?
ReplyDeleteMaybe i'm just stupid
Thanks :)
Don't worry, it seems to be a common problem. For some reason it worked well in my computer but it gives that same message on every other computer.
ReplyDeleteTry to download this and replace your exe files:

http://ifile.it/ivpfawl/modeler.exe
They are cracked so, in theory, they should work but if they don't I'll bring a solution next week.
