You are talking about
GTR Real Racing [GERMAN] No-CD/Fixed Image, Date 23-11-2004 by Sjediek
I guess ??
There is a very detailed description in the rar file. Just read it and you will be done.
(I haven't tested it yet, so I don't know if it works anyway).
hehe thanx that you tried to help me......but i think i am blind.....
cant find this thread.....O.o
can you??? :confused:
What Monty Burns is refering to is the nfo (nfo=Info - it opens with Notpad) which you should have got with the crack? It should have been in the rar file?

yeah thanks to montys help (Nothing but a smartass) we got no where and when you meet people like this guy just beat him down because this world is hard enough without people being a smartass (you see what time out does for kids absolutely nothing)If you cant help just stfu.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Alright, after hours of messing around with all the cracks and what not, I've finally found a way to get GTR working, WITHOUT disconnecting your hardware, so basically this can be done just with your mouse and keyboard. First, you'll need these items:
-Starforce Nightmare (google it and dnload it, it's like Starf*ck, but better)
-the game
-1.2.0.0 update
-1.2.3.0 hotfix update
-a language pack for 1.2.3.0 (can get it at gamecopyworld, etc.)
-the 2 .mds/mdf files for the miniimage...
-alcohol 1.9.2
You DON"T need the Ncry gtr.exe files, so u can just use the installation ones.
1) install Alcohol, Starforce nightmare and the GTR game.
2) install the 1.2 update
3) install the 1.2.3 update
4) install your language pack if necessary
5) use the starforce nightmare prog to shut off the appropriate IDE locations where your cdroms are located. it will stay off even if u reboot your computer, so you can close the program now.
6) mount the miniimage onto an alcohol virtual drive
7) run gtr.exe in the game directory. It will probably ask you to reboot the first time, since this is where starforce is installed. Do it.
8) run gtr.exe again, and it should work now.
i would suggest putting the starforce nightmare program easily accessible to where you launch the game, since you need to use it to re-enable your cdroms after you play, and also to disable when you want to play again. you can do this in real time, and you don't need to reboot your computer, so have fun!
I hope this helps you all out !! :D :D
Just rename GTR-RealRacing-NO-CD.zip to GTR-RealRacing-NO-CD.rar
@ slamnpit: The file is a RAR file and not a ZIP file, it's been renamed wrong! A bit of effort and you would have found this out. Don't go bad mouthing Monty Burns as he's quite correct in what he posted! Your reaction was totally unwarranted and may get you a ban.

You're banned for two weeks.
Next time, think before post !!!
i personally think he should be banned permanetly, if hes that kinda attitude idiot, then what makes the idea of him coming back good? Your call GLH :)
I just cant work out how he interpreted Monty's answer as being smartass??
It was a fair enough answer.

Mmh, just got back to this post. I may be rude sometimes but cannot find any rudeness here.....
Cannot find any reason for "slamnpit"'s reaction, but hey....who will be the smartass in the end ?
I like wasting my time for dumbasses like him....He can waste his time for hours finding a way to bypass the protection for his ILLEAGAL copy (just an assumption sweety ?), but isn't smart enough to just find a simple answer like renaming the archive....wooh, that is what I call smart :rolleyes:
I think this should be closed....
@Monty
I may be rude sometimes
No, not rude, just 'Old and Wierd sometimes' :)
Weird... its normally me who gets called things around here :p

You convinced me.

I can get it working with the 1.01 version but if I install the re-fuel patch the game seems to work but once the protection has done what it has to do, the game crashes to the desktop. Can anybody help me please, I am mad for driving the Seat Toledo since I am spanish.

here you go...this is the most elaborate explanation i could find
(ps - stolen frm another board :rolleyes: all credits due to the original author)
What you need
-Starforce Nightmare 1.12(latest)
-GTR game
-1.2.0.0 update
-1.2.3.0 hotfix update
-1.3.0.0 update
-a language pack for 1.2.3.0 if necessary.
-the GTR mini image
-alcohol 1.9.2 or Daemon tools(daemon tools is recommended)
You DON"T need the Ncry gtr.exe files, so u can just use the installation ones.
1) install Alcohol or Daemon tools,Starforce nightmare and the GTR game.
2) install the 1.2 update
3) install the 1.2.3 update
4) install the 1.3.0.0 update
5) install your language pack if necessary
6) Run Starforce Nightmare and click on "Disable Node" option(much better patch blacklist method than starf*ck.Changes will stay after reboot.)
7) Go to regedit and than go to: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Enum\r oot\SYSTEM
find the last number.Somewhere you should find "Plug and Play BIOS Extension" or "PnP BIOS Extension".
"Plug and Play BIOS Extension" for Alcohol120%
"PnP BIOS Extension" for Daemon Tools
8) Now, Right click the number(s) and select "Permissions"
9) Click on the System group and set "Read" to "Deny"
10) With Starforce Nightmare prog,click on "Disable CDRoms" option and wait till the process finished.The changes will not stay after you reboot although the cdrom is still hidden.You need to "Disable CDroms" again after reboot.
11) Mount the mini image onto an alcohol or daemon virtual drive
7) Run gtr.exe in the game directory. It will probably ask you to reboot the first time, since this is where starforce is installed. Do it.
8) Run gtr.exe again, and it should work now.
Note - The "Disable Node" option in StarForce Nightmare functions as a blacklist patcher for virtual cdroms.

Thanks for your help, but I have tried it all and the results are the same, when the protection sistem is checking the disc, my computer freezes and I have to restart it. Can anybody help please? :confused:
P.D. I am sure that it is not beacuse of my computer not beeing good enough to play the game, because I can play when I have not aplied any updates.

Yep I've tried all the steps sugggested here and it still doesn't work. I'm getting the "place the CD rom in another drive and press ok" error. The funny thing is that it did work. The first time I played I ran nightmare, disabled the drives, mounted the mini image in demon tools and away I went after a quick reboot to install starforce.
I have a funny feeling that the time it failed to work was the time that I accidentally ran the game without disabling my CD rom drive first. It looks like the game has blacklisted demon tools somehow. I tried reinstalling demon tools, used starforce cleaner to remove starforce. But the problem persists. The disable node in nightmare didn't make a difference to me.
I'm still waiting for the English release...

buy the real game and you wont need to worry about it.

13-03-2005, 13:41
Itīs easy to solve.
Use Starforce Nightmare and press "DisableCD" and than deactivate the channels were your drives are hooked. For example 1 drive is the primary slave and the other is secondary master, so you have to press "Pr.S. Sc.M off" and wait everytime until "proceeded" is changing in Starforce Nightmare. Now press "Disable Node", but do not!!! hack the Registry manually, this version of Starforce dedect this operation and fucl<ed up. Itīs important to undo all manually registryhacks befor starting; only the "Disable Node" Button must activated. Now mount a Mini-Image (use this, it work also with version 1.3) <deleted bullshlt> to newest Alcohol 120% or Deamon Tools 3.47 virtual drive. Start the game and type new key(hold Strg while starting) and play. It work 100%, everyone who said no do something wrong! 3 friends and i use this method and it works fine.
rasnarfire, you've broke the rules by linking to a file containing a serial number. Next time READ THE RULES!! (http://fileforums.com/showthread.php?t=54193) (that's if you don't get your ass banned).
rasnarfire
14-03-2005, 03:17
What? Itīs not a serial number and no CD-key! I'm not guilty. No plan about the topic, what? Itīs only the key for the protection. Where is the problem? Even in german moralistic boards this files can be linked without banning. Can I link the page, where this mini-Images can be downloaded, or is this forbitten too? I donīt read the rules because my english is not the best. Oh, that is the next reason to bann me!
rasnarfire, the file contained the CD-KEY for the game, providing CD-KEYS, SERIALS or LINKS to them is not allowed on THIS forum!
BTW, your typed English seems fine to me, so you at least have a pretty good understanding of English to make me understand what you typed, I bet my German is nowhere near as good as your English!
Please TRY to read the rules and ask questions if you don't understand any part of them. Maybe the rules need to be translated to other languages just to make it clearer for foreign visitors?
@BarryB
Maybe the rules need to be translated to other languages just to make it clearer for foreign visitors?
This is a very good idea! Then there are no excuses! ;)
Agreed! I would offer to do the English translation but someone beat me too it :D
rasnarfire
14-03-2005, 13:25
Is my english really so good? Ok, i explain it again: There is a difference between the CD-key for online playing and the SF3 key. Some games have a Starforcekey and a CD-key (f.e. GTR) and there is no hint in the rules that prohibit to post the SF-Key, because thatīs only to start with the mini-image. Btw: Is it allowed to post the site, which offers the mini-images with SF-key? This is not directly linking.
Good idea to make the Rules multilingual. :D
rasnarfire, I still don't think giving links to SF-KEYS is allowed either. If you own the game then there is NO NEED to give out any key/serial as you will already have a key/serial that comes with the game. If a mini-image is released for a game, then using the key/serial that came with your game should be used to get the game working if it needs one.
The only reason a CD-KEY/SERIAL/SF-KEY would be posted is if someone does not own an ORIGINAL CD/DVD and needs them to get their copy working!
If you are still unsure about posting SF-KEYS, go here:
http://fileforums.com/showgroups.php?
then use the PM facility to contact one of the MODS for the PC GAMES forum and ask them for clarification on the rules!
Here is a mod and his opinion: http://www.fileforums.com/images/smilies/biggrin.gif
Making the board rules multilingual would break board rule #5 !!! http://www.fileforums.com/images/smilies/cool.gif
(FileForums are English-Only.) ...my opinion...
Posting links to SF-Keys aren't allowed. In my opinion there's also no need to hold all the mini-images on GCW, because each one who has the original cd, can make his own mini-image, using the tutorial from the "Guides & Tutorial" sticky post. ...my opinion...
(Don't know what the other mods opinion is.)
On breaking rule #5, if people could read the board rules in their own language (whilst making the point that all posts are made in English), maybe we wouldn't get so many people breaking the rules because their English isn't that good that they don't read them!
But, how many languages to cater for, would anyone actually bother reading these rules, would it make a difference etc, etc!
Perhaps you just like smacking down/banning people :D

Hm, what should i say to this.
1. Itīs right that everyone who has the original can make an own mini-image, but if the drive is bad (like my one) and make a senceless curve the game does not start. Especially the newer version of Starforce proofing very exactly, if the data position messuring is correct. Scrapland and Battlestrike mini-images can be produces only by some people with good drives and iīm happy to get this files from them to play without CD.
2. Itīs wrong to think that all mini-images work with every SF-key. The SF-Key is a result of the physical structure of the data on CD and itīs never the same. So only the self-made mini-image run with the own SF-key. You can try to download a mini-image(for example GTR) somewhere and use your own SF-key from GTR. You will see it wonīt work. That is the only reason where the key is included in the mini-images. Itīs senceless to offer a mini-image without the key. BTW: Itīs the same with a crack. I can also say, every person who has the original need no crack?!

Hi guys,
I've also run into some problems with the mini image...
It is important to know that the mini image needs to be mounted to the first emulated CD/DVD drive, the one with the lowest drive letter. This means, if you have both Alcohol 120% and Daemon Tools installed - like I do - then you must mount the mini image with (the first unit of) the emulator configured for the lower drive letter(s).
Also, Starfick 0.83 did NOT work with this game; Starforce Nightmare was needed - because of its more advanced blacklist patcher, I guess.
By the way, a command line interface for Starforce Nightmare would be welcome, as that would make it possible to run the game from a batch file, without any user interaction... :)

@ shrek_69:
Do not make this shlt with the registry. In that case, your game will not work with a mini-image if you patch to version 1.2 or higher . Just click "Disable Node" in Starforce Nightmare to fix the blacklistings, because the GTR update improves the Starforce protection and so the manual registry operation will be detected and Starforce will kick you in the ass! :eek:
BTW: To enter a new Starforcekey hold "Strg" while you start the game.

Thanks first for the file Shadow. But I must say, itīs the same mini-image like this from dede1. It works fine but not with version 1.3. Therefor you have to disable your drives with Starforce Nightmare and not with StarfucI<! And forget to send to GCW, the key will be removed as soon.
Email address sent to you shadow ( eventually :D ) thanks.
Hello,
I've been mucking around with this starforce nightmare thingy in an abortive attempt to get this game running, and now my dvd drive has vanished from windows explorer. I can see it in control panel with a little yellow exclamation mark. Drivers loaded but hardware not found it says in the 'general' tab of 'properties'. Has anyone else had this? Had do i get my drive back, i've clicked every activate button in starforce nightmare at least a dozen times and rebooted but to no avail??
TIA,
Its ok i found a solution. Anyone else who finds Starforce Nightmare makes off with their cd drives for longer than anticipated (code 41) should read this.
http://www.cdrom-guide.com/forums/showthread.php?t=272544
Got my drive back but still cant get the stupid game to run, (even after re-hiding the cd drive). I guess things dont look good for Silent Hunter 3 in the short term either.
Tip, do not use 'disable cd' in SFN, instead selectively disable drives with the other buttons to prevent the problem I (and others) encountered. It may not help the game run but it'll prevent the need for registry surgery.
Regards,

the game even not starts...
I only used starforce nightmare and load the mini image(so far everything is ok) now the game want to know the key of gtr_cd1 - so i typed in the key included in the ***.txt but it dont work the game always say that the key isnt correct :confused: :confused: :confused:
what can i do ???
rasnarfire
20-03-2005, 08:04
If you type the key from your Original in that field for a somewhere downloaded Mini-Image it doesnīt work. We have described the Problem more than enough in this thread. Your own key will only work with a good Mini-Image from your own Originaldisc.

Have you copied the key or typed?
I have tried the method described on post #24 exactly several times and I always get an error after the disc checking that says Try in another drive. I got the game to launch one time but have been unsuccessful for a few days since then. Any idea what I can do to reset the whole process and try again?
tret
I will close this thread!
To much cd-key discusions here.
@all:
If the discribed method don't work for you, play the game with your original cd!
You all are trying to get this method to work for a so long time. Have you ever thinked how long you have could already played the game, instead of messing around with the registry and the CD/DVD drives.
