Help with unsafedisc
 

How do you use un safe disc and I can't use the Harry Potter no-cd thing

SafeDisc version..
 

i think it's version 2.51 so there is no way to unsafedisc it with the unsafedisc wrapper..
check GameCopyWorld.com

No, Harry Potter has Safedisk 2.4, so Unsafedisk can be used.

1)Copy all dll's and main exe to temp directory
2)Run Safedisk Dumper on exe - creates a data.bin file
3)Run Rebuilder on the new data.bin file - creates the new fixed exe.
4)Rename the new file to what the original was
5)Replace the original file with the new fixed one.

good summary ghosth@cker,this should help you a lot stephen but you could have also searched m8.....

Using 'Unsafedisc' on Harry Potter
 

Ive just used unsafedisc on the .exe and managed to create
a fixed one but i have a couple of questions....


1/ Last time i tried to copy this game i used a no-cd version of
the exe and placed it on the disc before burning. When i
tried to install the game it came up with a message stating
the exe didn't match the exe in the .cab file (or similar). Am
i gonna get the same problem here with the new one EXE?

2/ Is copying the entire files from the cd to hard drive then
replacing the exe all i need to do before burning back?


Please help!!!!

1) Yes the same thing will happen because it has a CRC check, it checks to see if the exe is the correct filesize. An error will pop up stating the problem but just click Ignore or whatever it may be and it will continue to install ok.

2) Copy CD to hard drive, replace exe's, then burn back to CD-R With the Same CD-Label. If the original disk is called "Harry_Potter", then the copied disk must be labelled the same - BTW use Nero for burning this back to a cd.

I did see something recently about a program that could replace files in .cab files. Could i use this method to nuke this problem?

Wish i knew what the damn program was called or where i saw this info?????????


I have a CRX-14E (sony) and found it to be a good drive.
The drive does burn DAO RAW but i never see this drive on the compatability list. Whats going on... is there a way to find out?

BTW thanx for a speedy reply :)

try searching for links for lists in this forum...

I copied the contents of the fifa 2002 cd on to hard drive.

I used unsafe disc to patch the fifa2002.exe file and put it with the copied fifa2002 on my hard drive.

When i went to install the game straight from the hard drive to see if the game would work and i got the .cab error saying it isn;t the correct filesize. I ignored this to carry on with the installation.

It installed. Then i tried to run the game and i got "Please Insert Fifa 2002 CD"

Can anyone help??

Thanks

Hello Packer

Do you have any problems with your Sony CRX140E CD Rewriter??

I have the Sony CRX200E.

Do you know of any known problems with this type of cd rewriter with protected cd's??

I know clone cd does not work with this particular CD-REWRITER.

Thanks

I love my sony, if it could only have done SD2.30 and later i would have been the best cdrwr to get. It is bvery reliable and it is a solid good quality product. My sony worksperfectly with clonecd!

Hello Packer

Are you saying that you CDRW workd with clone cd but cannot make copies of games protected with safedisc 2.3 or better.

How would you copy a game that has safedisc 2.3 protection or later??

Thanks

Re: Problems
 

Unsafedisc only creates a fixed .exe, not a NoCD crack. That means that after the Safedisc protection is removed there may still be other protections such as CD-Checks, which you have encountered here.

Simply by using a fixed .exe. Copy content of CD to temp dir > replace main .exe with fixed .exe > burn to CD using Nero and the same label.
Always keep a copy of the original main .exe for patching though.
This is how i do it all the time. And it works with 99.9% of all writers (i know, i know, its a waste of potential if you can do 1:1 of course).

Hello emptyeighty

When i copied Fifa 2002 i didn't tell you that i put the cd in the drive when it installed and it still said "Please put Fifa 2002 CD in you drive".

I Hope you can help

Thanks.
