New protection like Safedisc 4.6 and securom 7 doesn't support mini image
U need a full image 2 play

Not entirely correct :)

This new safedisc 4.60 checks the beginning of the disc, 2 points in the middle, and the end of the disc. So you gotta save to parts and 00 all the others. Then you got a mini image.

Im working on it right now, just that I need more time. I got a lot of schoolwork :(

So what I ījust wanted to say was u can't use mini images u made by the old method and so just use the full image
But I still want to know how he found out what the protection does:confused:

yeh you can,just not all games.

protections are all diffrent,and react diffrently to systems..so they do work,just certain games they dont.

infact the only game's i have found so far that doesent work by mini image (other than starforce games) is this one(not that i have tried,i have just heard) and tiger woods 2006

what? i own all those games,and they are all straight mounts..

but more to the point,there is no cd cracks for all of them.

exept battlefront,which can be done by my tutorial in the other thread in minutes.

here

OMG

listen guys...this is so simple a f!cking penguin could do it.

it is not a starforce game,there is no need to use anti starforce protection.
you do not need to rename any drivers
nor edit your registry,dll's or what ever.

listen to this word by word..

INSTALL GAME-FULL INSTALL/EXPERT WHATEVER ITS CALLED

DOWNLOAD VIRTUAL CD HIDE LOCATED ON GCW

DOWNLOAD THE MAXI MINI IMAGE LOACATED ON GCW

MOUNT THE MAXI MINI IMAGE IN DAEMON OR ALCOHOL 120

RIGHT CLICK DESKTOP ICON AND SET COMPATIBILITY MODE TO WINDOWS 2000

START VIRTUAL CD HIDE

HIDE YOUR DRIVES

EXIT THE VIRTUAL CD HIDE ICON IN THE TASKBAR,MAKING SURE THE DRIVES ARE SET TO HIDDEN

DOUBLE CLICK THE SHORTCUT TO BATTLEFRONT 2

start the game.

dont keep whining it dont work,this is the most simple thing to do,just try it.
yes that is why you use virtual cd hide.

its teh safest program to use of its type..

antiblaxx can hammer your machine,and stop daemon from ever working again..

anti starforce ide disabling programs can damage your dvd rw drives,as it did mine.

v-cd hide has to be exited in teh taskbar for it to work.

and this game works fine on my pentium 4 laptop and fine on my amd desktop

2 completley diffrent machines...also my freind has managed to get this game running over 4 pc's all diffrent spec..so my way works without doubt.

if it dont,your pc aint powerful enough or your doing something wrong.

I'm not blind!
I meant your so called tutorial: How to make a maxi image

i never said that,i said that games do run from mini images

Securom checks for DPM in newest version. Safedisc checks for weak sectors. All they did is mix up the game data and weak sectors... No big trick. And they put the safedisc files at the very end of the disc, and it checks for them... which in my opinion is a really lame trick.

Securom is even lamer tho. Only checks DPM, so you can easily make a maxi image and then compress it to 16 kb so it doesnt take up all that HD space, and you got yourself a mini image. God bless windows on the fly compression ;)

Hope that a crack for the DVD version appears soon.
