Yes, it works. Anyway, S4H in itself is not totally necessary, any of the Safedisc or Securom hiders will do- All it does it to deny read permission to the DT/ Alcohol virtual drive reg keys, a trick that has been around for ages.

-Leezer-

what is S4H?

well i used ANTI-BLAXX! and it worked fine for me, using the image file i created from my original disk! i did use other programmes and they didnt work! like deamon tools, which has worked for other games for me in the past!

i used antiblaxx in my office (XPSP1) and all worked fine but not worked at home (XPSP2), what's wrong?

OMG! it works! just like him, i registered just to say thanks! thanks man!! really appreciate it! :D :D :D

@typnhp: There are lots of other programs like Anti-Blaxx: SR7.Stop, Virtual CD Hide. See the "CD/DVD Hide Utilities" section at http://cdmediaworld.com/hardware/cdrom/cd_utils_8.shtml .

Hi, I'm looking for a crack for the 6.0.1 patch for FM2006. Is it out yet?

Many, many, many thanks for the one that makes it :D

nothing seems to work for me .
isn't there nobody who has a no-cd/dvd crack or something :confused: :confused:
where can i find a download link for s4h ??
PM ME pls

this is a known issue. people who actually own the game on cd have the error as well. it's to do with safedisc protection. There is a huge topic on the official si games forums here: Si games Memory Crash Bug

SI games are fixing it...:

Fill out this form here, the more replies, the faster they can fix it!:

i followed Swoosh3k method and it works. that's after i patched the game. just try. change the compatibility to "NT SP5 and above" given that the CD image is already in your virtual drive.

Download S4h here

Also for the other asking the same: the link was posted on page 17.

Read before asking!!

That's good news. So I just install the patch and then change the compatibility into 'Windows NT Service Pack 5' and it works? I already have a virtual FM2006-drive made with Daemon Tools.

yup. should be. i'm playing the game now. but i'm worried about that "January 2006" bug.

but, do you still need the image made with alcohol 120%?
:confused:

You rule :cool:

I cannot start FM06... i have downloaded the file. mount it with Deamon Tools. started the icon on desktop and it says: You have no CD in drive.. why ?

hello. My problem started kinda odd. I downloaded FM-2006, 700 MB image file, using torrent. burnt it on a CD, then installed game from CD, not image. then I installed patch, v6.0.1. Then run the game, started new game, added 2 managers, after all done, saved it, then exited. I've done these without using any virtual drive utility and/or hide utility, such as sd4, anti-blaxx, etc. I had to save and exit the game then, cause I didnt have time to play it.

But, 2 days later, today, I wanted to play it, and tried to run it, but it gave me correct cd error!!! How could this be? Then, I created mini image using alcohol 120%, mount it using daemon tools, used sd4 but same thing, game doesnt run!!! used anti-blaxx. no way. what do you recommend?

Best regards

I've uploaded a PDF to GameCopyWorld of step by step instructions how to get Football Manager working with no CD. I've tried to make it very straight forward. Hopefully they'll publish it on their website soon :)

Have a look here what is required.

Hello again. I finally make the game run. Problem is, mini-image doesnt work.

Load full image using Daemon tools, and run SD4, click "hide", wait few secs. Then run the game. it runs without any problem. Tried lots of times to be sure.

Btw, you dont have to enable "emulation" on Daemon tools.
You dont have to change compatibility to NT. No need. At least not on XP-Pro-SP2.

but I need to know something. if any friend knows how to make a proper mini-image using alcohol or any other software, please tell me? I tried it according to guide which was given in this topic, but, as I said, didnt work.

Regards

i've got a working image and crack if anyone's interested...you'll have to PM though as you can't talk about it here.

How To Get Fm2006 To Work
 

this is how i got it working.

Load image in Alchohol. (make sure it is the latest version of Alchohol or it will not work)

Install the game like normal.

Then under the fm.exe in the directory.

right click choose properties, then under the compatibility tab, select WindowsNT (service pack 5) then hit apply.

Then run the shortcut off the desktop and it should work fine. You DO NOT need Anti-Blax or Sh4. Just follow the above instructions and it will work fine!!

you cannot do this because it will cause the "low memory" bug and the "january 2006" bug also... :rolleyes:

i can tell you that on 4 computer I tested it on this method worked 100% fine. (the ntmethod)

Im in january 2008 btw. And no crashes.


But the safedisk hide method DOESNT WORK on my computer... There must be massive diffrence on how to get it to work. Its gotta be the image.

EDIT...

I have managed to get the SD4 hide method working, I had 2 virtual drives (deamon tools and alcohol) disabled the alcohol one mounted it on the deamon drive and it worked fine.

Two methods to run it that work flawlessly on my machine. (WINXP SP2)

i have service pack 2 and it works fine for me!

There's a crack over at g a m e b u r n w o r l d but I haven't tested it.

edit: nevermind it's just a stupid guide.

How do i make an image with Alcohol 120%? I tried to do it, but when i went to load it in DAEMON Tools, it said "Unable to mount image. Invalid image file" :confused: I done it as securom 4/5 is that right? Hope someone can help, as im getting fed up keeping putting that disc in! :D


Thanks in advance

Hello everybody;

My friend asked for my about a problem. I didnt come up with anything so decided to ask your opinions.

We make the game running by using "full image-daemon-sd4" method. I was able to pass through everything without any problem, started new game, then saved it. But my friend said, after he adds new manager then hit "continue", game gives him an error like "array access out of bounds". But doesnt close, keeps running. Then when everything is done, installed, he trys to save the game, it gives the same error but this time closes itself. What does it mean? What does he have to do?

Best regards

This worked for me (but using NT4 sp 5).
Of course its the CD HIDE thats the real key here (Game burn world (without the spaces) has a copy)

Props to Dokok for going the extra yard.

Also, regarding the crack at gamecopyworld -: tried it, its for the beta test game version, it DOESNT allow you to create a new game.
And the game burn world crack is just a txt file with the above instructions (but without the virtual cd hide)...nice!

Anyone know how to play the game using Win98.

All those guides say u need to change compatibility so looks like they're intended for XP users.

Or Win98 users need to wait for the crack ? :(

Mini image
 

I cant seem to get the crack/image to work!!:mad: can someone please help me??

Me too!!!:mad:

DL this:

No more problem with d-tools and no more need NT mode just untick your NT mode. Very easy to use BTW.

NT - verdict yet?
 

So do we have a verdict on the NT compatibility method?

Is this usable? will it screw up games? saved games?

This is the only way I have been able to get it to work on my laptop, which is the reason I want no cd..
Any other threads out there that deal just with this?

thanks

i cant get this to download, i click the free option and it loads another page and no download starts, could somebody please send this to me. thanks

Try here: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=A6BGSHD6 as an alternative.

could any one test the thing dragon said first? cause i kind of smell a scam or virus here. People said get the mds from my original cd but where the heck is the thing?

What the F++K are u talking about????? U can scan it with your anti-virus first. Next time, when someone tried to help, stop accusing things they do not do. :mad: You are an As*H**E you know that? :mad: :mad: Also why not scan it yourself and stop asking someone to do things for u as if U are our boss! :mad:

sorry sorry, i did try you thing but all i got is a document of words.
