View Full Version : Incoming Forces - Macrovision logo screen?
Hi there,
I've just made my first attempt to dupe a Safedisk2 protected disk (Incoming Forces). I used Clony XXL with my Plextor PX-W124TS and all seemed to go OK.
When I start the copy of the game I get a Macrovision Safedisk2 logo onscreen for a few seconds then the game menu appears. The game craps out with a Direct3D error when trying to load but I think it's because my D3D is broken 'cos the original disk craps out with the same error.
Is it usual to see the Macrovision logo on copies of Safedisk 2 disks? Does it's appearence indicate the copy is either good or bad?
TIA,
R.

i think this means that the copy is bad...have you enabled the aws?

Never seen the Macrovision logo coming up before. But it wouldn't be a sign of a bad copy I wouldn't think. If it's a bad copy then it'll say something Please Insert Correct CD.
Yep AWS was on, and everything seemed to go OK. Guess I'll have to fix the damned D3D stuff & try the game out then.
Thanks for your comments.

If the original craps out with the same error, then it won't be the copy either.
Direct3D error could be your current video drivers are not fully compatible with the version of DirectX your running.
Try updating both your graphics card drivers & DirectX to latest versions.
Hope it helps.

the version of direct x that the cd needs in order to play is included on the cd data...normally
This is strange, i have never seent the logo come on a SD2 game but i have seen it pop up on a SD1 game
themis_t
29-03-2002, 14:38
,aybe it's and sd1...(i don't think so)but we don't know..
i have nfs 4 - road challenge uk version. it uses sd 1 and when i run the game a safedisc 'splash-screen' shows up while authenticating the cd. (fyi: it does this with the original cd!)
i think its a kind of 'feature' that can be en/disabled :)

Are you talking about the game's splash screen, showing the logo or picture of the game, cos this is on just about all Safedisk games (this is when it's checking the protection). But I've never seen a Macrovision logo on the splash screen
no. like i said: its a splash screen from SAFEDISC!
ok, screenshot here (http://www.heliweb.de/d.bauer/SafeDisc%20Tools/safedisc_splashscreen_nfs4uk.jpg) (~190kB)
gh0sth@cker
02-04-2002, 12:47
huh....I've got that game too. I might go and try it out. But I don't think it'll be the same cos this one was from a box set of six games (knockdown price) so it probably won't have ne protection. If I can find it, I might give it a go, then again, I probably couldn't be bothered looking.
Trying is the first step to failure Homer Simpson

This is definetely not a joke because I have also already seen this screen.
no fake, and if you dont want to believe me then go away, i can live very well without you :p
i included my whole desktop to make sure no one thinks about a fake.
and a 1st april joke on the 2nd of april would be kinda stupid, right?

again it's similar to html.

When you replace all the < with [ and > with ] it will look like below. Don't forget that when closing the tag, to put the "/" in. :D

So ghosthacker, what you like?

As for films, I don't really get into the movies that have hundreds of sequels - Rocky, Police Acadamy.....SW, ST, JB :cool:
Although there are some good trilogies like the infamous Die Hard series etc. But you can't beat a good comedy.
Anyone seen "Not Another Teen Movie" released about a week ago in Australia its got some funny shit in it.
Who hated scary movie 2 scary movie 1 was alot more funny
emptyeighty

Nah, i still think 99th is best. But anyway, 99, 100, 101, who cares? Its all a big family.
to ghosthacker:
Yep, i liked Die Hard too, especially part one and three, although three is still best.
to DeanI:
Havent seen any of those yet, which one is best???
Not another teen movie is the best if u like that stuff
Scary Movie 1 is funny

Well, ill tell you:
It is Futurama. Its the episode where Bender, Leela, Fry, Leelas boyfriend (the little green alien), the boyfriends captain (dont remember his name) and that other girl (the cute one) are stranded on a planet of 2.5 meter high amazons who dont know any men. They are ruled by a "Femputer" who sentences all male beings to death by snoosnoo, which is their word for sex.
The Femputer said that quote.

here's my little prayer
since futurama came on, the simpsons have slid steadily downward, qualitywise. i found that this was because the simpsons writers all now write for futurama. however, with fox ending futurama, maybe they will come back, and make simpsons not be a clip show any longer.
*heres to hope*

I have written a little program for anyone who has a NT based OS. Its a special rebuilder. It won't do anything if you have 98 or something, NT/2K/XP only.
Grab it here (http://members.dingoblue.net.au/~cirkutz/Clones_Rebuilder.zip), hope you enjoy it.
why? ( for the bot question)
and is it the rebuilder for unsafeshit 2.51?

Well, lets do it.
Anybody know Ranma 1/2? Its funny, just seen the first couple of it. I like it.
Especially whe he/she fights his/her father/the Panda.
well i just saw spiderman i thought it was cool! it was awesome. but i still think that Starwars attack of the clones will take the cake this year, but just maybe Lord of the rings 2 the two towers

what do you think of lost souls...?or ....american psycho?the excorcist?and the top???????The silence of the lambs!!!!!!!!!!!!
Monty Burns
13-05-2002, 21:27
The silence of the lambs is far better than its sequel Hannibal. The first one has got more tension, allthough I must say, that there are some "cool" scenes in Hannibal.
I don't like sequels anyway, but there are a few worth watching, e.g. Blade II. (not a thriller though, hehe)
podunkviller
13-05-2002, 22:26
hmmm, good sequels are hard to find.......i can name truely horrible ones, but very few good ones. in all honesty, having read the books, lotr part 2 will probably be much better than the first. duno about part 3, the director will probably take a few liberties with it to make it more excitement/less wrapup
well i think sequals from books are good but most other ones suck i like the harry potter books but hate the movie. the lord of the rings first movie is alright
emptyeighty
14-05-2002, 10:08
YES!!! The silence of the lambs!!!
Where in my litlle weird mind did i bury this extraordinary movie?!?!?!?!
I think its one of the greatest ever made!!! I really enjoyed watching that one.
Lotr I is ok, i think.
Talking about sequels: I like Predator 2 much better than Predator. The only thing that makes part 1 worth watching is the scene where they cut down the jungle with the minigun and grenades and shoot hell of a lot ammo in there just because they think the Predator is there somewhere. The rest of it is plain boring. 2 is much better.
Also Alien 2 is the best part. The others suck.
Oh no, no thrillers again. SORRY! :(
And still: Whats IT about??? Never heard of it!
themis_t
14-05-2002, 14:10
i think he means ET...you know the alien.......hey...the good sequels are the sequels of the prophesy and godfather!!!!!!

Thats at least one reason.
Monty Burns
20-05-2002, 02:53
Allthough, I think, the movie will not be as good as its prequels, it is of course a must see.
Slowly approaching 222. Who will be it ??

You cannot eat and listen to what they say because you dont understand a word. That sucks.

emptyeighty
21-05-2002, 13:11
No no, theyre real store bought original DVDs. I dont have a DVD drive in my computer. I borrowed a PS2 and the DVDs from a friend.

Monty Burns
21-05-2002, 21:50
I had this problem once. I think I had to enter a password. I used an easy one (all the same digits) and it worked. But it was a long time ago and I don't even remember which movie it was.
Monty Burns
21-05-2002, 21:51

Monty Burns
24-05-2002, 11:09
I would suggest smartripper, dvdx, dvd2avi, flaskmpeg, virtualdub and tmpenc.
They can all be found (+ instructions) on vcdhelp (http://www.vcdhelp.com/tools.htm).
As you are german you can also try this site (http://dvds-kopieren.de/download/).
Could somebody please tell me what the english word for a number with all the same digit is?
i use dvd2AVi and the rest i have.

Monty Burns
27-05-2002, 12:32
Ah well, I see.

Ireland WILL beat Spain 2morra. You'll see.
Monty Burns
15-06-2002, 06:06
I don't think so @ghOst, allthough you have got the better team.
But the most important thing is, that Germany advanced to the the quarterfinals.
I am just watching Denmark-England and I am a little confused, cos I thought Denmark would win this one easily.
Well, btw which team is the next world champion in your opinion?
gh0sth@cker
15-06-2002, 06:19
It will of course be Brazil - who will probably be playin England next - that'll be a gd game.
England got lucky - the first goal killed Denmark.
Congrats to Germ - but uv no chance lol
Ireland WILL win 2morro
Monty Burns
15-06-2002, 07:10
Brazil is also my choice, taking into account that Argentina was my first choice, then France and even Portugal.
This was of course before the wc started.
But never forget that "on a good day" Germany can beat absolutely every team (they can also loose against every team "on a bad day" of course). Today's match was horrible, maybe they become better.
themis_t
15-06-2002, 13:58
greece doesn't have a team playing in the wc and i am happy with this because if we had everytime we lost our fans would break everything in tha field....
I wish oz had a team but since they are not in im goin for italy
it sucks the way we went out against paragyua
gh0sth@cker
16-06-2002, 07:40
Ok listen up, Ireland went out on penalties........but if you watched the match you would realise how unlucky we were. You cannot deny it. Spain were useless.
Me watched it in a massive Irish pub, I'm now drenched in beer and am slowly losing my vision.
aww well........there's always in four years time :rolleyes:
podunkviller
16-06-2002, 18:03
the US is gonna win it all. if they can keep it even for 120 minutes, their goal keeper will win the penalty kick shootouts. just a thought ;)
