everything seems to be fine, I did it the same way except
4) Installation finished, start game, reboot required
5) close sfdrvrem dialogue box before continuing with sfdrvupd

only little changes but maybe they help you.

Ok i will try it thnx although am tempted by my friend about Imperial Glory! Number 4 i did it exactly how u did it but number 5 i will try it like u said.

Thnx ppl for all the help this is the last time, am spending too much energy on this game! I hope Imperial Glory would not have so much things to do in order to play it.

Still nothing always asks for the god damn cd!
Anyway thnx! :confused: :o

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! ;))

I can work at the first install with Carbon patches and steps of installation. After i shutdown and switch on PC next day, it doesn't work. I realised that i need to repeat this steps everytime i starts my PC:

Run the SFNightmare.exe
disable cd
disable node
if needed disable ch2
Mount CD2

Does anyone had the same problem?

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.

Thnx mate! Works fine!

Is this just the demo doing its rounds again?

Yup
 

:mad: Yup i tried it and it is the demo

:confused: True only demo thats why i was wondering what happened to all campaigns!

is there a nocd patch for cossacks II version 1.1?

nocd
 

Dude , thereint even a working nocd patch for 1.0 :D

when I was writing this I was downloading fake nocd crack for 1.0 placed on gcw...
