File - F.E.A.R. - First Encounter Assault and Reconnaissance (UK) (v1.08).zip

Home

Description

Download supplied zip. Unzip ISO and burn to a DVD disc.
Run the disc.
Use the following key for installation (do not register game and get the key blocked for other users):
BAC2-DEF3-NAZ3-LAM3-2742
The game realizes the disc is not original, so you will require a 'No CD' mod for this game version of v1.08. This basically eliminates the need for the install disc to authenticate/run the game which is great anyways. I can't/shouldn't post the link for the NoDVD file because it's 'aftermarket', but you will easily find it on gameburnworld (Google it).
Navigate to the game folder, usually: Program Files (x86) - Sierra - FEAR and open.
Scroll down to FEAR.exe, right click on it and rename to FEAR.bak
Keep folder open.
Navigate to the NoDVD file, unzip/unrar to your Desktop or wherever, then drop that FEAR.exe file into your open game folder.
The game will start on it's own with the desktop shortcut, so no disc required! I suggest writing on your new FEAR game DVD with the game name and install key, maybe also a companion CD with the NoDVD file, then put them away for safe keeping.
Enjoy.
Edit: annoying stuttering on newer systems with W11 and Logitech, thus one last step to take with a simple mod:
