Here we go ^__^
INSTRUCTIONS:
1) Install Cossacks2 and run game, when it will ask to reboot for installing starforce drivers, reboot
2) Unpack zip file, launch sfdrvrem.exe but don't reboot. Then run sfdrvup.exe and an error message will appear, it's normal. Now run sfdrvpatch.exe and locate file sfdrv01.sys under c:\windows\system32\drivers and patch it
3) Reboot now
4) Run again Cossacks 2, it will prompt to reboot again, reboot. (I know it's frustrating but feel me it works)
5) Use StarForce Nightmare 1.12 (you can grab it from Gamecopyworld) and disable your cd/dvd ide from your computer. Disable also NODE function.
6) Mount mdf with correct dpm of the CD2 and insert the correct serial number. (MDS+MDF) made by Alcohol 120% 1.9.5 Build 2802 (latest).
Play !!!!!
:D
My patch is taken from the Carbon patch for Second Sight !!!!
"with correct dpm"
Explain this plz :)
EDIT: I have 3 virtual drives : One of Alcohol, one of Daemon, and one of CDRWin 5, can those **** the whole think up ?
You need an image of the original cd2 made with Alcohol with RMPS informations (DPM Extraction at 1x) and mount the same image from
the virtual alcohol's drive.
Which version of Cossacks did you use ?
Did you make your clone with the game of a friend or did you download it ?
If so, what is the size of your CD2 ?
Thanks
"failed to idenfity the disc in the drive.insert a licansed disc."
orjinal image?please send and cdkey please
I have the original Game (2 CD). I made image MDF+MDS of both cd extraxting DPM from the GAME CD (CD2) at 1x. Cd-Key is not needed.
I haven't cd-key on my original box.
If you have only the iso without DPM (MDS) you can't run this game and the method described above will not work.
Cab somebody point me in the right direction to find a ready made MDS file, my burners having a little bit of trouble doing the bizz with it.
MDF file is fine, MDS with the DPM Extraction at 1x is a no-go.
Yup, if someone could put those MDS online, it would be cute ;)
To right, any kind thoughtful, generous people that would like to let us have the MDS, would be well appreciated. :D
I can send MDS (DPM) extracted at 1x with Plextor Premium, quality 100% but my game is in Italian Language. I doubt it will work on the english or german ones.
But if you want my dpm i can put it on rapidshare.de
Let me know what should I do and I'll do.
Here we go :D
http://rapidshare.de/files/1623788/C2_DE_CD1.mds.html
It doesn't work :'(
Maybe is my .mdf ****ty, cause I did everything fine (except that I unplugged phisically my IDE drives instead of using Nightmare, and that I have 2 virtual drives: Alcohol+Daemon...
:o
Jesus, help us :p
Could you (the other users) tell what happens to you ?
Which are you problems, etc...
Here we go :D

Hi Niko, is this the mds from disk 1, if so it's the mds from disk 2 that we need. :o
My CD2 is labelled with that name. If you wish I can create a DPM of the CD1.
My CD2 is labelled with that name. If you wish I can create a DPM of the CD1.
Niko is right, but this doesnt solve my problem ;'((
I think every localized version of Cossacks2 has an own DPM. You should try other forums or any other site currying dpm files (such as Copybase).
Otherwise, I don't know how helping you.
I get a "unable to mount image" message when using Nikos MDS, must be a localized thing. Thanks for trying Niko.
Me I believe to have succeeded. Thanks to the MDS of Niko. But it asks me Cd-key. And my Cd-key does not function. Why?
Je vais bien merci et vous ? :) :D
Espece de petit salaud :D
T'as MSN ? =O
Rifton, how did you succeed? I must know.
Me I believe to have succeeded. Thanks to the MDS of Niko. But it asks me Cd-key. And my Cd-key does not function. Why?
Here is my solution.
1) Use patch (taken from the Carbon hack) from this link:
http://rapidshare.de/files/1611117/Cossacks2.StarForce3.Fixed.File.By.Niko76.zip.html
2) Use mds I posted on rapidshare.de
http://rapidshare.de/files/1623788/C2_DE_CD1.mds.html
3) If it asks for a cd-key use that linked to:
http://rapidshare.de/files/1642175/Serial.txt.html
I hope this will work for everyone.
:D
I keep getting "unable to mount image" using deamon tools and pointing it at the MDS file, why, whats going on?
You must create an mdf of your cd and then use the mds posted by me with the same name of the mdf you created. When you use Alcohol, create MDF without any setting. No DPM, No Error Skip, No Subchannel Data.
Try it.
Okay, followed your instructions everythings okay untill I get to the running cossacks 2, then I get a "program not responing" error from the protection program.
You should wait one minute or two max.
that does not function, I give up.
Thank you Niko for your assistance

You should wait one minute or two max.
I waited until my tea went cold but the protection program had crashed, I tried a few times with same result, looks like a dead end. Thanks for your help.

arkadas bu oylun crack'len olmuyor :confused:
Okay. This is my tutorial
1) Install Cossacks2 and when installation is completed launch game and reboot (if you don't have any other StarForce game installed)
2) Unpack zip patch wich includes the StarForce3 removal tool (sfdrvrem), the update driver tool (sfdrvup) and the patch exe file.
3) Now run sfdrvrem.exe but don't reboot your pc
4) run sfdrvup.exe and an error message will appear. Don't worry it's normal.
5) Now run sfdrvpatch.exe and locate sfdrv01.sys file in c:\windows\system32\drivers and patch it.
6) Now reboot your pc and run Cossacks2 desktop link for the game.
The application will tell you, you need another reboot. Don't worry and reboot again.
7) Now use StarForce Nightmare 1.12 and disable CD (I have SATA HD so I disabled CH1, CH2, ATA and CD) and click on "Disable Node".
8) At last mount Cossacks2 cd2 using my mds (naming it with the same label of CD2's MDF)
9) Run game, and if it doesn't work, insert serial number provided in the link on rapidshare.de posted few pages back.
10) Wait for StarForce3 checking protection and play.
I can prove it works flawlessly, but I must tell you my version is only italian localized.
It could work with a mini-image I think :s
Please, could you make one ?
niko to tell for me to do :)
but not work it
I version english <<<< problem :confused:
arkadaşım şu anda crack yapmıyoruz zaten başka yolla yapıyoruz
It could work with a mini-image I think :s
Please, could you make one ?
Yer what I think here is incompatibility between the MDS and MDF files, thus the "not responding".
Could Niko, you make us an mini-image of your CD?
Yer what I think here is incompatibility between the MDS and MDF files, thus the "not responding".
My only problem (but not the least) is that it says that it can't recognize the CD :s
I'm making a mini image for all of you.

Here we go.
http://rapidshare.de/files/1646740/Cossacks2.Mini-image.zip.html
Unzip and enjoy.
:D
It doesnt work, but thx for trying ;)
not work
very thanks niko wait crack
I to thank you for what you did for us NIKO. My English is bad, I am French
I found that mds I created is good only for italian version. It checks MDF size and if it doesn't match the game doesn't start.
I suggest you to find someone with the english version and any other language version and ask him to create the correct dpm for the version needed.
I'm sorry for not helping you.
:(
and after all that too!
oh well, i'm so pleased that i have the original and have not had to do all of that for nothing..
all i want is the a no-cd patch, because it takes 5 minutes sometimes to load :(
anyone got any ideas?

Hallo everyone.
I tried Mr.Niko's ideas and patches,but it doesnt work.
I think it's just because of our one is English version.(Niko's one is Italian version)
So,we should take a mini image or starforce driver patch for English version.
I'm waiting・・
:Sorry for my poor English,I'm a Japanese.
In additon,the date of Japanese product would have been released is July 8th!! :eek:
HOW CAN I WAIT FOR THIS!!! :(
Carbon has made the correct .mdf and .mds, and has released the whole ****.
We're saved :P

You are smart! I dont care such as thing!
It may be possible to play game if we get ENGINE.EXE and Protect.dll of niko and use mini image.
But,it may be also possible to be changed language(game menu only?) to Italy after we got a full playable game :(

10-05-2005, 01:29
When I get the crack, I'll test on my german version.
Carbon works great with version 1, but I just tried it with version11 and it dident work. Tried replacing the engine.exe and protect.dll from version 1 but got a dynamic links error.
Even though the engine.exe increases in size the version stays the same, the protect.dll is the newer version of StarF***.
Maybe a need to port another file over from the version 1 install. Any ideas?

I have searched the meaning of "carbon clone".
As a result,I found a soft called "carbon copy cloner".
Is this right? I can play the game if i use this soft? :confused:
I want to try,but now is PM 11 o'clock here(in Japan).
This is the time to go to bed,so I'll try it tomorrow. :(
Good night,everyone.(zzz
Could you send me a pm with crack link, torrent or smth. Doesn't matter. Or can you give me the full release download link please.

"Carbon" is a team of crackers, just like Reloaded or Hoodlum.
They found a method to bypass SF3 =)
They made a version of Cossacks II that works for me (:p)

So it will get on the ban list.
I dont know about you, but my carbon version doesnt work :( How did you managed to start it?!
First don't patch to 11, the crack wont work if you do.
can someone PM me with what i have to do to make this game work?i have a ALCOHOL120% copy of the english version
thx in advance
It worked for me! :D However, it only worked when I mounted the image using Alcohol itself (it didn't work with daemon tools). I also tried the game patch 1.1, but it didn't work, even doing all the starforce cracking stuff. Well, good luck to the people who are still having difficulties, I'm going to enjoy the gme now! :cool:

Deamon tools works fine, you just have to make sure you change the names of the 2 dll on Deamon install. If you leave them as they are they will be blacklisted by SF.

Which 2 DLL's are those, pray tell?
Re-install Deamon and you will get the option to change the 2 files in question to any name you like, thus SF cant blacklist it because it looks for the defult name of the said files.

that's true. the patch included in this release just patches the starforce 3 driver to an old version, i think. a version which doesn't re-enable ide drives after having them disabled by starforce nightmare. the copy protection from the game as is doesn't recognize that and therefore it is able to run the game properly.
and thanks for the tip with the 2 dll's or the scsi bus driver name from alcohol. seems that is the problem in making tm sunrise work, too.
Anyone know of a tool that I can use to unwrap the cossacks update 11.
Thinking it may be possible to update the game without updating StarF**k.

Is ist possible to play game without the external drive?
AloneSoul
12-05-2005, 11:45
could someone explain what is this USB method ?
cybermcm
12-05-2005, 12:10
USB Method:
1) Download new Alcohol 120%
2) remove existing SF protection
http://www.onlinesecurity-on.com/protect.phtml?c=55
reboot after you used the exe file
3) Copy original CD with the datatype "Starforce 1/2/3" and the option "burn rmps to recordable media" with slow speed (1x)
4) active "RMPS" in the options menu in alcohol
5) get via emule
ed2k://|file|TLF-GAME-05.09.05.Cossacks.2.Clone-Carbon-ENG-patch.rar|251235|A49A7D1A189B0FFB175A35E225473A1A|/
there are two files, first use sfdrvup.exe which causes an error, is ok
second use sfdrvpatch.exe and patch file
6) start game, game asks to reboot, do so
7) download StarF*ck from http://www.project-star****.tk/ and disable CD and disable "Node"
8) connect an external USB drive to your PC, insert disc2 and play
hope i didn't forget anything

@AloneSoul:
If you want a cr*ck then build one :rolleyes:
But I can understand you, the last few years it was very simple to play a game without CD. It seems, that this good times are now over.
I was not able to build a mds file with my original CD that works :mad:
Maybe someone else can do this?!?

is there someone here willing to write a little tutorial on how to use it correctly? (using beta 0.83)
and another question, when i select the lates starforce profile, and i "patch blacklisted" it says it has found 2 drivers, but patched 0 ? how can i kill those 2 drivers? (alcohol disabled, daemon has changed .dll file-names)

Hi,
I 'm thinking of buying this game and I've read through all replies to this thread, but I have a couple of questions (because I don't want to give money away for a game that may cause me a thousand problems), if someone is kind enough to help me :)
1. If I install this game and after some time I decide to uninstall it, will this Starforce protection be uninstalled too or will it remain in my system?
2. While I have the game installed (but I don't play it), is it possible that this Starforce protection affects the way other applications (eg. MS Word, Photoshop or any other application) I launch funtion?
3. From what I 've read here, there are two ways in making a duplicate: Either by using this Carbon method and mounting in Daemon Tools or Alcohol. I didn't quite understand, which dlls or other stuf do I have to disable in Alcohol or Daemon Tools in order to mount the duplicate without problems? Could anyone explain in some detail? And further, does anyone know if this method is possible to be applied to a laptop (since I am using one)?
Second method, using an external USB drive. I would like to ask, if I want to burn the images, so I have a duplicate of the game in CDs and not in my HDD, what is the right way of doing it (if any?)? Btw, I tried to duplicate an older game (the Punisher) using Alcohol, but when I tried to burn the images, after finishing burning and I insert it in the drive, it appeared like an empty disc with no content in it, but showing 640 or sth MB disc occupied, does anyone know why I got this blank - full disc instead of the acual burned image? I note that I didn't have the same problem when I converted it to .ISO file using UltraISO. So, if I try and convert an Alcohol file for Cossacks II to .ISO file will I be able to use this duplicate disc or the Starforce Protection will resurect?
Thnx a lot in advance :)

hi,
maybe i missed something within this thread, but how was Carbon able to create a mds file that works (I tried to do a backup with Alcohol and Starforce settings with write speed x1 but my image won't work)
can someone explain me the way to a backup copy of my disks?
btw: the usb and the clone carbon method is working, now I try to backup my german original disks without success by now

Cossacks.2.Clone-Carbon
works for me
and didnt ask cd-key :eek:
system
c2.6/512/R9600XT
Microsoft.Windows.XP.Scene.Edition.v1.6.INTERNAL-ZiMiNi
:p :D
Any help on how u did? I managed to go to the part that says activation succeeded system must be rebooted to protect the system. I reboot i disable everything (cds, nodes, ch2) and then i mount the image of cossacks2 mdf or something on the daemons drive. Then it asks for the 2nd cd of cossacks which i have to insert in my cd rom in order to check the disk. After the check says that it is not a valid cd and asks for a serial. What am i doing wrong?
Frustrated am spenting all my energy on this god damn game.! :mad:
Write the serial when it asks.

Write the serial when it asks.
It asks for the key found on the cd case. I tried many keys but none seem to work. It says invalid key or something. :confused:

Having problems?
Getting retry come up??
here's what i found out to make it work!
The major problem I found was that the MDF file Name should be the same as the MDS File name..
Like so
myclone_disc2.mds
myclone_disc2.mdf
so if your .MDF file is different from the the .MDS file it won't work! (my version was different!)
copy the .mds title and paste it to your .mdf file, deleting the .mds on the end and changing it to .mdf .. once thats done, mount daemon tools emulation RMPS, all option unticked!
follow instructions on the carbon nfo and it'll ignite!
no more cd input! this should save you from scratching those newdiscs! ;))
P.s. I have to mention .. :D I reckon Imperial Glory will Kick Some Ass! http://www.imperialglory.com/main.htm

1) I have 4 files
Cossacks 2 cd 1.mdf
Cossacks 2 cd 1.mds
Cossacks 2 cd 2.mdf
Cossacks 2 cd 2.mds
2) I mount cd1 to the virtual drive using daemon tools (emulation RMPS only as u said)
3) I run the game from virtual drive and i install the first cd. Then asks for second cd. I unmount cd1 and i mount cd2. I continue installation.
4) Installation finished reboot.
5) I run sfdrvrem i dont restart
I run sfdrvup (i get the error)
I run sfdrvpatch and crack the file thats inside system32\drivers
6) Now i restart using the dialog box that was enabled when i run sfdrvrem.
7) I run Starforce and i disable as said cd, node and ch2.
(My dvdrom and cdwriter are both on secondary IDE (master, slave))
8) I mount cd2 on virtual drive again with RMPS only.
9) I try to run the game and asks for cd. I press retry nothing. If i insert the cd2 of cossacks in my dvd rom starts checking disk and after checking asks for the correct cd to be inserted.
ok any help would be really appreciated

This is how I did it
Have Total commander use its cool! and very handy ..
Have Ultra Iso Installed, version 7.2.3.901
Have Daemon installed Version 3.47 on the installion sequence it asks if you if you'd like to change those two SF detection files, call them anything.
make sure the file of your mdf files are same as your mds file names
only change your mdf file name to same as your mds .. not the other way around .. and this is only done, if they are different in titles.
Double click the cd1.mdf file
in ultraiso ..
Extract to a folder .. my_ disc_setup or any title you disire
Double click cd2.mdf file
Extract to your folder.. my_ disc_setup or any title you disired to call it
don't overwrite files just keep extracting
now hit setup and install the game
run game say no
reboot
launch daemon tool
right click in taskbar on daemon tools
go to option and un-tick all
right click in taskbar on daemon tools
go to emulation and select rmps
all others to be un-ticked
use the Patch file from Carbon
Run sfdrvrem.exe but do not reboot yet. don't click anything yet
leave it and go to
sfdrvup.exe run this now, which will give you an error 1072. click ok
put sfdrvpatch.exe in
Windows/System32/Drivers. run click on file .. ok.
Now reboot.
now get Starforce nightmare from http://starf.bestmedia.kiev.ua/.
Run the SFNightmare.exe
disable cd
disable node
if needed disable ch2 (depending on what IDE cable your cd drives are on).)
right vclick on daemon tools
mount image find the CD2.mds file mount it, making sure the CD2.mdf file of the same name is in the same folder!
run game and thats it!
delete files from setup folder
P.S. Never Give UP! ;))

Thnx mate i will try it when i go home from work. Although it would be the 10th time am installing cossacks. :eek:
Just use your original. I would be sick if I've tried for the 10th time to play with the crack and couldn't be made to work.
And I think the workaround works with the images from the carbon copy.
It didn't work with my original, and after unistalling the game and installing from the carbon images the workaround worked and played.
After playing with cossacks and tried to play with TMSunrise I discovered that the game installed the new improved SF drivers and needed a reboot.
So it's easier if you just play with the originals...
i think that there is no need to use star**** or somth. what may **** ur system. You must replace only engine.exe and protect.dll in your game/data directory. work 4 me.

I think that no one works on it !!!
Sorry to spoil everyone's fun, but ive found out that images other than the ones done by Alcohol do not work with Carbon crack, or not at all for that matter. My friend made backups of his .MDF's using Nero and ended up with the Nero images (.NRG). Then he burned them onto CD's and gave them to me to take a look at. First I tried to make it work without mounting images, by simply using the cd's by followed the usual - Carbon patch, restarts and SFnightmare. It didn't work, so then i made images using Nero from those cd's, mounted them and went through the procedure again. Still no luck... :mad: . any comments?

Hi. I have read all the text posted here. I would like to ask the guy which owns the game (even in the italian language) to post the following files:
ENGINE.EXE
PROTECT.DLL
Those files maybe be found either in CD1 or CD2. The ones provided by gamecopyworld.com turns Cossacks2 into demo, so I wonder if we use the original one we might get it done. Well, it's a guess, I think it's worth a try!

Starforce is no harder than any of the other protections. Actually, it's a little easier if you want my opinion.
considering you never managed to crack that securom game, i'll take your comments with a pinch of salt sirmaverick ;p
I ve started the game with the carbon crack and useing the program gamejack 5 it is a virtual cd/dvd emulator, the idea is that it is relatively new and is not supported by starforce 3. I kept up the instruction and Run sfdrvrem.exe, then the sfdrvup.exe and finally the sfdrvpatch.exe. Then I disable the node, CD and channel 2. The game start at once.
EnjoyTheSilence
22-06-2005, 14:23
I can safely say that if you follow the instructions, this game is very simple to get running. The one thing that every instruction set misses however, is telling you to turn on RMPS and RMPS only with your game image. I did the whole system of removing the protection and such via the patch. The upshot to this is now that i know how starforce works and how to bludgeon it to death, i can finally get around these issues with other titles - like chaos theory (bought) and SH2.

You are saying that others have no life and still you seem to answer posts all the time... And maybe you missed the fact that computers is a way of life for some (and yet they still DO have girlfriends, goes to parties, doing stuff)...
So how come some people are 'nerds', 'doing nothing else then sitting at their computers' and so on while you do the same thing right now and you feel you have the right to bitch like that?
Give it a break, grow up, get into the real life and try to bitch like that and you will be real sorry some day.
Also you are sitting there demanding others to do a work you have no idea on how it is even done. Try to take on any old SecuROM/Safedisc version and see how far you come in the next 5 years.. Let's say that you do nothing but try to crack games for the next 10 years then maybe you'll be able to handle the current Starforce version then.
So instead of being here and bitching go do something you that have a 'real life to live', 'better things to do than being in a "loser" forum' and all that.

oh another dip ****, hi. I like how you people come with lame excuses lol. You are bitching that you can crack a protection lol ok. There are thousands of stuff that i can do that you can't. I repeat myself again if i knew how to crack i wouldnt even be here posting relies to fags such as you and others like tippex who started bitching for no apparent reason. And believe me i will never take crap from people like you. You can only bitch in front of your computer but in real life i bet you are a little fag who is affraid to even say a word.

There is a good expression: " don't wrestle with a pig, you'll only get dirty but the pig enjoys it".So for this reason i'm leaving this faggy forum, ciao bitches. oh and admin just remove my account. My nick is too great to be posted on these " nothing but bitches" forum.
