Age of Empires II: Definitive Edition Message Board  

As of today, March 24,

Even though the Gamepass version says

101.101.35584.0 in the game,

the trainer labelled:

2. Age of Empires II: Definitive Edition Trainer 101.101.35209.0

here:

www.cheathappens.com/72201-PC-Age-of-Empires-II-Definitive-Edition-trainer

works, because Microsoft has not actually updated anything, they just renamed the game.

Use that trainer for Gamepass.

The top trainer is for STEAM only.

best,

With Xbox Live enabled, will have an anti-tamper-proof check which will detect the trainer and disable the game. I'm just checking if there's a way to enable Xbox Live achievements while being able to use the trainer.

If not, that's too bad, but still okay.

Confirmed. The trainer will not work when signed in to Xbox Live (XBL).
(You can however play the campaign missions while signed in and the trainer will work.)

When attempting to play standard game with the trainer activated and XBL signed in you will receive the following error message:

They've updated it now, even campaign missions will trip if logged into XBL

With the last update, and with the game being completely blocked from any online services, the game can still detect tampering and dump to the main menu with a 'tampering detected' warning message in red along the bottom.

The one success I had to get it working was to launch the trainer after the game, F1 at the menu, and let the game run for a minute before activating any in game options.

It may be possible to F3 (pause) right at the start of an encounter and let it idle for a minute before resuming and then using trainer options.

Up until today I was able to play logged out of XBL, but today its booting out most of the time.

Scrubber's advice of starting the trainer after the game and waiting a minute or two at the main screen to activate it has worked for me a bit as well

The new version 101.101.39284.0 i think makes the last trainer absolete. Right? (STEAM version)

There are 17 update reports, so wait for a trainer update.
