Anybody done a working backup of this?? If so how and wot software did u use??????? cheers m8s.

I think the Makin' MAgic - Expansion is also protected with Safedisc2/3 like all the other Expansions.

You will need a "Two-Sheep"-Burner (a burner able to do correct efm encoding).

You should use Alcohol120% and the included Safedisc2/3 profile.

cheers m8. Been doing second disc all day no luck. I have alcohol 120 (trial) i assume u mean that the efm must be selected for it 2 work. I managed the 1st disc but only works with the no-cd patch.Pretty new to this so please not too teccy. I have a pioneer 106d(original) it says in options through alcohol that i have option 4 efm, so that must be the setting i select. Give it a go and let u know. cheers 4 that.

You do not have to set any option manually.
Just choose the Safedisc2/3 profile from the button of the ImageAssistant-Dialog and all needed setting will be set.

The important thing is you need a burner with correct EFM-Encoding ability.

Yes, it's very important to install all the Expansion Packs in the order they was released.

Tanks 4 all ur help, just been on the website u suggested and although me pioneer is not on there, my other writer is under the 2 sheep burner, i have a Toshiba SD-R1002, but it has a minus under the efm bit on the page, does this mean it won't do the correct coding 4 doing safedisc2/3. Pioneer106/7 won't do it, tried again with no luck after checking settings.

You need two sheeps at EFM ...

Would it work with a one sheep burner?
