fable 3 DLC traitors keep

I did somehow get it to work,I sort of took a trick from a forum to make dirt 3 dlc cars work and tried it with this First open GFWL marketplace by itself and create a account then go to games and download tinker(a free game)and install- you might as well download all free fable dlc again once you got that, start tinker and set it to log in automatically with your legit account and then close tinker Then go and open fable 3 and it should sign you it to the real account,but then it will want a key,ignore it by just hitting the home button and it should leave you logged into the account but you will be offline and fable 3 should be starting you will have to start a new game but it the dlc will show up and the acheivments work too If it keeps crashing the game just keep trying it,it took me a bunch of times to finally load up fable also log out of GFWL marketplace before you start fable unrar these files then move the folder to owner/appdata/local/mircosoft/xlive/DLC/4d53090a/00000002 I'm not sure if this will work but the free dlc works with this method so far.I have to beat the game to find out if this dlc works so I'll update everyone if it does

What's the forum you mentioned?

godofwrath08 (2011-05-31)

omg plz tell me sum1 has tried this so i can lafff and say HA uve just been dun

darb82 (2011-05-31)

I played through it and traitors keep didn't show up.So unless you just want these files to mess around with,this torrent is worthless
But if you go by the description you CAN get the all the free dlc to work with the skidrow version.This is from a forum regarding dirt 3 dlc and how I got the idea
"If you want DLC from Marketplace in cracked game, you'll need at least one legit Games for Windows game.
1. Open Games for Windows Marketplace
2. Login
3. On the left side select Full Games
4. Find Tinker and download it (Free )
5. Run Tinker and log in to the Games for Windows. Live CD key is listed in your downloads
6. After successful login you can exit Tinker and start DiRT3
7. In main menu select My DiRT - Extras - Add-ons. Check, if it says DLC Free car pack - Owned
Unfortunately, you will NOT able to play with your old save because of your new profile. But now, you will be able to earn achievments When you start DiRT3, just ignore Live CD key as always."

DjDede (2011-05-31)

this is about Fable 3 not Dirt3 :D

OmniNegro (2011-06-01)

Did you even read the comment? He says it is a method that worked for Dirt 3 and also works here.
I think I will wait until someone makes a means to do this without GFWL or all the trouble. Patience.

XiONDiGiTaL (2011-06-01)

Works perfectly, thanks

spearhead111 (2011-06-01)

What about the other payed dlc? I've noticed that when I downloaded the free dlc the other payed dlc from the Day 1 DLC pack also downloaded, but weren't unlocked :?

darb82 (2011-06-02)

@xiondigital
Traitors keep worked for you?The free dlc worked for me but this didn't.Anything special you did?
@spearhead111
I noticed the understone files in the free dlc folder too.I don't know how to get these to unlock for me.
I doubt skidrow will release the dlc because they need a legit account to work and I don't have much faith they will be able to figure how to crack them.Its been 2weeks since they been out. and still nothing from them.I got these traitors keep files from another site and decided to upload them as a torrent for people to try and mod or crack themselves
If you go by my instructions the free dlc WILL work on the skidrow version.If you can get these files to work also please leave details on what you did.

ravenlingat (2011-06-02)

XION DIGITAL how did you get this to work

darb82 (2011-06-02)

I figured out how to get my game to recognize traitor's keep but it says I need to purchase it.The only benefit is the free soldiers outfit is available as a gift.
If you went by the instructions and got the free dlc to work using your gfwl account then this is What I did -
-go to the folder with the free dlc and find a lic file with a long number and copy the name of that file
-then go other folder with traitor's keep dlc in it and find that lic file and rename it to the one in the free dlc folder
I think what we need is for someone who has bought the dlc to upload that file or open up their lic file and copy the contents and paste it in the comments or somewhere so we can replace our own lic file contents with theirs.
That is the trick to getting these files to work on our games from what I seen.

spearhead111 (2011-06-02)

Good to know you've figured this thing out. It gives me hope that we'll be able to play all the dlcs soon enough.

darb82 (2011-06-04)

If the free dlc is still not showing up try this-
check and see if you have package_info.xml located here

All you have to do if you don't have the file is to open the dlc_redsetter.bnk.dat file in notepad and select all and paste into a new notepad file and save as package_info.xml
then put that file in the location and the free dlc should work

karkar99 (2011-06-05)

guys patient.. sooner or later sumone will solve our problem... with of course easy way not the hard way

SweetDreamerTestbed (2011-06-07)

I've heard that the add-on also contains a reference in the data files in the file startup.vfsconfig. I'm not sure if this is true since I don't have it but that could be another reason the DLC is not showing up if you don't have the .bnk file referenced for the DLC.

Gamer2210 (2011-06-07)

crap, tried to buy this game today but not available in my country.
that's really fucked up.

Ingfire (2011-06-10)

Okay so if I've already been playing through Fable III, with GFWL automatically logging me in, thus allowing me to save and all that good stuff, and I download the DLC, do I STILL have to start a new game for it to recognize and give me the DLC items? Even though I'm not starting a new GFWL profile or anything?

Ingfire (2011-06-10)

Scratch that, got all the Free DLC to work =]

Legend.Cyrus (2011-06-14)

@Ingfire
Did ya? I only got the yule hat, 5*dog potion, Setter dog potion, women's Highlander suit, and the 2 legendary weapons to work.. What all did you get to work and how did you go about it?
---
This is the best I have been able to find or actually the only thing for the dlc and traitor's keep.. Thanks for the upload darb82 :)

spearhead111 (2011-06-15)

Any resolution on how to get the paid dlcs working?

Gil029 (2011-07-12)

Hey when i look in appdata theres no local folder

Gil029 (2011-07-12)

Im trying to update my Xbox live profile so i can sign in automatically to Fable 3 and i get this error "Failed installing Title update. See log at for details" So i look in Appdata and theres no Local folder or anything from the Path so any way to fix this?

darb82 (2011-07-15)

Anyone who wants to use the free dlc and not have to deal with gfwl download this

and put it in your fable 3 folder.it bypasses gfwl and lets you use the free dlc if you follow the readme
still haven't got the paid dlc to work

BASARAisAwesome (2011-07-19)

What a waste of time downloading this if you can't use your existing GFWL account.

Saiz (2011-08-09)

where do i put the files? bcuz i definetly cannot find a folder named owner or appdata or anything thats listed

Saiz (2011-08-14)

i used GFWL marketplace to locate where to put the files, C:\Documents and Settings\(your computers name that u set)\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\XLive\DLC

Jamm611 (2011-08-22)

ok, i did some more testing today, i got traitors keep to work with most of the free dlc, you must use the xlive.dll and the fakexlive.ini.
when you copy the dlc to the game dir, only copy the contents folder, nothing else!!!
also make sure all the packages are listed in the package_collection_info.xmb or they wont show up, open it with notepad to edit.
the dlc is gifted during the story progression, you should get most of it by the time you leave the Dweller camp, the Traitors keep is tied to the butler Hobson in the Castle Treasury, and will not show up until after the main story is completed!!
Start a new Game!!!
hope this helps mates :)

darb82 (2011-08-28)

@Jamm611
Thanks for taking time and effort to get this to work,I gave up on this and quite playing the game but i might try it again.
cracking this dlc was beyond skidrows abilities otherwise he would have released it with a proper crack.

LaputanMachine (2011-08-28)

@Jamm611
How exactly did you combine the two package_collection_info.xmb files from this torrent and the free DLC torrent? I tried just copying and pasting everything after from one file at the bottom of the other but the DLC isn't working. It's a little confusing when I don't know what I'm looking at.

LaputanMachine (2011-08-28)

Sorry, apparently text in brackets doesn't show up here. I meant to say "copying and pasting everything after < packageCollection >"

LaputanMachine (2011-08-31)

Okay, after much trial and error I've got the package_collection_info.xmb right. However, traitor's keep is not working. In fact, none of the DLC except the two weapons and the soldier outfit works.
I followed the instructions to the letter so that's not the problem. The only difference I see between the DLC that's working and the DLC that's not is that the ones that are working have encrypted .dat files. The rest are readable in notepad, but don't work.
The files that I'm working with are both from torrents found here. This torrent and "Fable 3 all the free DLC". The two encrypted files are dlc2free.bnk.dat and dlcfreeforall.bnk.dat, which correspond to the two DLCs that are working.
Any ideas on how to get the others working?

darb82 (2011-09-07)

@LaputanMachine
I've wasted too many hours trying to get these to be recognized but if you check out the fable3mod forum and look around there my be some tricks that could help.
They are anti-pirate over there but timeslip and keshire are smart enough modders that could probably get these to work but won't.
I got all the free dlc to work using a tool I got from there that fixes corrupt saves.I had to convert my legit save to a no gfwl save but after the paid stuff still didn't work I gave up on it.
sorry i can't be more help

snakejk (2011-09-14)

I was messing about with this today and got Traitor's Keep quest to work together with the free DLCs. A bit of modding is required so you need to set xlive.dll's ini to UseDLC = 2.
I used Timeslip's BnkBrowser/Creator found on fable3mod.com to export the script from the downloaded dlc (instructions can be found on that site too) And changed the part that checks if you have a premium package, to instead check if you completed chicken chaser quest (the one with the chicken suit) So now the "purchase" message is gone and I just played through the DLC.
The free DLC torrent also has Understone included and I got that to work as well with the same method.
I can uploaded the modded files if anyone wants it.

snakejk (2011-09-14)

I have some time so I uploaded the mod.

This will unlock both Traitor's keep and Understone if you have the free dlc pack. You need xlive.dll posted above, and follow its readme in creating fakexlive.ini, then set UseDLC option to 2.
Make a new folder called "mod0" in "fable III\data" and put the Content folder from this torrent in there.
If you wanna use the free DLC together with this then put them in also the same folder, but you need to merge the two package_collection_info.xmb files so it contains packages from both.
Or simply use mine:

Then make another folder in fable 3 data folder, name it "mod2" and extract my mod in there. and you're done.
Understone's quest, The Voice, should show up right after you met the rebels in bowerstone the first time.
Traitor's Keep quest will show up right after the main quest. I was able to load my old save and both dlc works.

LaputanMachine (2011-09-14)

@snakejk
Way to save the day, man. I had just about given up on ever getting this stuff to work. Thanks mate.

surinen (2011-09-15)

@snake-not-so-liquid(jk)
thank you very much for your work and I might be in possesion of suggestion ( probably unworthy your time ) in repack posted by tomek there is reaver amor in mods - is it possible to make it work, or maybe I will put it in simpler way: do you know where I can get reaver armor ?

snakejk (2011-09-15)

@surinen
Actually I made another mod prior to this one to give me dlc items on startup, since not all of them showed up.

Just put this in mod2 folder, replacing my other mod, but make BACKUP of it first. Run the game to get the items, and save your game. Then delete the mod and put my original mod back in, so the game won't keep giving you the same items every time.
This will give you:
- DLC clothing items. (Strangely, outfits from traitors keep only show up when I finished the main quest, while some other outfits ONLY show up if I have NOT finished it, including reaver armor. I guess the solution is to use this mod twice.
- All new dog breeds, 3 dlc hairstyles, and dye pack. Five star dog potion.
-5 pre-order only weapons.
Btw, reaver armor is called industrial knight in game.

surinen (2011-09-15)

thank you once again - there is one more thing I would love to ask: your mod - does it give all items like it would happen with original version of game ? for example - will I recieve tratior's keep outfits in the same time of game as in original or it will give me them before I complete mission ? because I would like to play game almost like a standard version. well I feel so limited by my language skills - ah and I know it's industrial-something-thing but I always forget about but yep, industrial knight sounds better than reaver armor.

surinen (2011-09-15)

I'm not good with mods and things so I will ask: you said that I need to replace files:
- items
- dlc underdome
- items
so if Iget my items and then change into main mod and then to items - will I lost my underdome progress ?

copyright-police (2011-09-15)

@snakejk
Thanks for making your mod/crack available and putting the time to figure this out.
I will give this a try later this week.

snakejk (2011-09-15)

@surinen
DLC items in un-modded game are given as gifts, so it's no different from my mod. EXCEPT traitor's keep's outfits which are found in chests, so if you don't want them to show up immediately then only use the mod once before finishing the main quest. Then find those outfits on your own.
And to answer your second question: No, you wont lose your progress. The two mods are mostly the same, one of them just has additional codes to give you items.
But make sure to always has one of the mods in the folder else your save won't load because the game treats my mod as DLC.

surinen (2011-09-15)

@snakey
hey snakey ! there's a problem. when I try to start a new game, in fact I just installed fable 3 and configured things theres a pop with a txt that I dont have required dlc, you know prolly what I mean - and why that happens ? is it because its a new game and I havent been to chicken mission ( as you set it as checker ) or something with my config turned wrong: I made folders like you said, downloaded xlive from timeslips page, made fakexlive and set it to 2. so I see two possibilities, something with folders went wrong or I need to do chicken mission before I can use your mod ?

snakejk (2011-09-15)

@surinen
No, chicken chaser quest is not the problem because the script that checks for its completion doesn't run until the dlc quests start. I just tried starting a new game and I don't have any problems.
If you follow xlive.dll's readme and my instruction on the folders closely then there shouldn't be any problem either.
In your earlier post you mentioned "Fable 3 DLC REPACK" torrent, are you using that one? I'm not sure it has all the dlc that both of darb82's torrents have. So the problem might be that you don't actually have the dlc.
I'm using skidrow's release of fable 3 and dlc from darb82's releases and everything work perfectly.

surinen (2011-09-15)

@ssssssssnake
well, problem was simple as it could be - I just accidentally wanted to load my old save without knowing it was old one - deleted - done - BUT then I created a new character, game started, I'm in dwellers camp, bought their outfit, I'm able to enter dressing room but there are no gifts for me, nothing popped out for me - I'm sure that followed your guide, well maybe hm, yes, firstly I used that dlc items on startup but nothings there for me - I tho that I would be able to switch into understone-traitor's keep one but it looks like I need to get my dlc first - will they appear after chicken mission ( yes you mentioned that you only used it for a check but I'm nod a mod spec ) or it should be already in my sanctuary waiting for me ? it's kinda annoying as I really wanted to try out those outfits and new missions - bad luck is stalking me

surinen (2011-09-15)

@SnAkEEe
hey there again, sorry that I'm using your time to that extent but it's horrible-horrirble for me to make it work so I've made screenshots of my folders and file to show you, so you can say if there is something wrong

also in folder mod0 I've overwritten those files which are before "content folder" - I mean I overvwritten free dlc files with traitor's keep files, those are same I guess
we have same versions, skidrow, and same dlcs - that repack I mentioned I only took it as example of dlcs but all dlcs needed are in fact in darb82 torrents so no need

snakejk (2011-09-15)

@surinen
The location of your fakexlive.ini is wrong. Look at the readme carefully. Mine look like this:
http://bayimg.com/PAKHEAAdb
The outfits my mod add won't be gifts, they will just appear in dressing room. When you change clothes for the first time in the game (dweller outfit) then leave, and get back there again they will appear.

surinen (2011-09-15)

uh, I tho that roaming thing is just a a chosen place - now I got it works - well not fully, I have dog costume, female highlander, dogs BUT there is no male highlander outfit and industrial knight - do you know what is wrong with industrial knight or male highlander - I'm sure that I should get that costume but there is nothing awaiting for me.
and by the way, did you cheat so I got all outfit dyes or its original dlc ?

surinen (2011-09-15)

oh and I see that there are tatoos and makeups - those are added by you or also dlc ? what else is there added ? I still havent been in library so asking before I go there - yup yup and whats more important whats with that industrial knight and highlander outfit?

snakejk (2011-09-16)

@surinen
Oh, I guess I left the makeups and tattoos in there by accident, it was for me personally cause I'm too lazy to find them all. If you don't want all the makeups and tattoos at the beginning then just sell them at a pawnshop and find them yourself later on.
I recently started a new game with the "give dlc items" mod right at the start, and to my surprise I have every dlc outfits, even the ones from traitor's keep. Maybe there are some specific things in each saves that make it work or not work, these are unpredictable. So the only way to make sure you have every dlc items is to start a new game with the mod.
But at least I got the dlc quests to work 100% and that's a lot better than no dlc at all, I'm sure.

surinen (2011-09-16)

of course mate, it's great that you helped us play dlcs - i just would like to enjoy game fully. now I deleted my save files, created a new game with dlc mod and theres - yes, another problem - I start the game with sword, rifle and spell glove which makes game bugged when I enter path to/of rule for the first time, white screen shows, I hear music but nothing is going forward. I believe it is because I already got a magic gauntlets so cutscene wont trigger - when you start a new game, do you have three weapons ? like wearing pyjamas in starting zone with sword and rifle on your back ? weird things occur to me. dont know what to do to make it work. maybe I should use mod after I get to dwellers camp but before I enter dressing room. do you know any solution or something to help with this problem ?

snakejk (2011-09-16)

Okay, I guess I should've explain it more clearly, never been good at explaining things.
Yes, I started with rifle and sword in pajamas too, but here's what to do:
1. Use the items giving mod to start a new game, you'll see sword, rifle and all that while still in pajamas. While still in pajamas, pause the game and choose to exit to windows, the game will autosave on exit. This will save your inventory.
2. Now delete the mod and swap in my normal unlock mod and run the game again. After you press enter the intro will play again but don't worry about it, your save is loaded. You're back in pajamas but the equipments will be gone. They will show up again when you go into the dressing room the second time at dweller camp.
I hope other people are reading this too, so they don't get bugged.

snakejk (2011-09-16)

Clarification, I said:
"They will show up again when you go into the dressing room the second time at dweller camp."
I meant the dlc items will show up. You still have to get hero weapons and gloves through normal gameplay.

snakejk (2011-09-16)

Another thing, before you can enter sanctuary at the beginning of the game you can check if the mod work and you have the dlc items by talking to your dog.
If there's an option to train him then that means you have the 5 star dog potion from one of the dlc.

surinen (2011-09-17)

aye, old son, so far everything works fine - I'm totally thankful to you for your time that you spent here giving my advices how to go thro this modding proccess - now I hope that there won't be problems with dlc missions, understone and traitor's keep - gonna see !, your guide should be in dlc description

darb82 (2011-09-17)

@snakejk
Thank you for being the person to get this figured out.I lost interest in the game and have uninstalled it but I might have to give it a go again.
I knew if I put these up someone would eventually crack these dlcs.I tried for a long time,With the help of timeslip I was close put got to the point I just got sick of the game and moved on.
@surinen
I wish very much I could edit the description for the torrent but the site has that option disabled.
I might make a new torrent next week with the combined dlc and mods with proper instructions if I don't get too distracted by the new vegas dlc.
but If people are too lazy to read the comments I doubt they will be able get these to work.
Anyway thanks snakejk and I hope everyone can enjoy these files.

killa2krew (2011-09-25)

@snakejk
I've read every comment you posted on how to use your mod ect. but it's not working for me. help?

Slight problem: your mod appears to be corrupted or something. I downloaded it twice, and it says it's either empty or corrupt when I try to extract it. Help?

ubii (2012-04-12)

Having a problem with bay files allowing me to download the files snakejk uploaded. Anyone able to help me out and upload them someplace else?

ubii (2012-04-12)

Nevermind about the downloading problem. I used Chrome and it worked fine. Damn Firefox.
However, this isn't working at all for me. In fact, the fakexlive mod actually removed all my free dlc from the game, which blows more.

t3kn0w (2012-04-16)

Could anyone upload the files snakejk shared on a different upload site?

Akivasha (2012-09-27)

@snakejk
You're links so no longer work, can you re-post them somewhere?

Furko99 (2012-10-04)

yeah it would be really nice if snakejk or any1 else would upload his mod files somwhere

MitchAllen (2013-01-14)

After spending OH i don't know 6hours messing with this and getting 50-70% of it working. I'm finally saying F it. ITS NOT WORTH the effort for crappy DLC content and 1 dlc that lasts an hour according to players. Thanks anyways. And thanks for the shitty install instructions. A drunken retarded monkey could of guided this thing better.

icymetal (2013-07-04)

just wondering does anyone have the fable 3 dlc hack files i look everywhere and can't seem to find the files i mean there's torrent files for them but can't download them cause there's no seeds for them and if someone does have them can that person upload them...

adamhbk (2013-07-07)

Hello
I followed the readme and the description step by step and it isn't working. I have did the auto login with Tinker and I did the free DLC's I started a new game and i have beaten the game and Hobson (the guy who gives you the first quest in this DLC) is not at the treasure room and there is nothing like Traitors keep: ... at the quest list neither. But the free DLC's work.

Kamianbu (2013-08-03)

Here are the files that snakejk had up (or very similar ones) Either way, they get the job done.

khaled_7 (2014-08-06)

I copied all files to game directory/data/dlc/content
both DLCs. this and traitor's keep
it works with me I see all the weapons/dye/tattoos and I use them
but none of the weapons has any texture !!
they all use the same default model of hero hammer/sword/rifle.
whats wrong with the models ?!!
