Nascar Racing 2003 not working?
 

I have downloaded 2 different no-cd cracks for my NR2003 game, and the game works offline in both of them, but not online through sierra.com? It says the game is an invalid version?

Why would this be? The game works fine besides the no-online racing part?

I've also noticed this before with my age of mythology game, the game is updated fine, but when i put in the updated nocd crack it wont let me play online?

Many nocd, even cracks won't let you play online. I've read a few nfo's from groups that release ISO's and many have the following: "if you want to play online, then buy the game". Might not even be your nocd, could be the serial your using. If this is a "legit" game and your using the nocd, stop using the nocd or contact Sierra tech support.

NOCD-CRACKS AREN'T FOR ONLINE PLAY! (ALMOST EVER)

The server you want to connect to, is checking you game files. When it find a "Non-Original"-File (NoCD Crack) it don't let you connect.

For example:
In Battlefield 1942 (and also BF Vietnam), the crack contains the original file (BF1942.ORG). In the cracked file all checks are redirected to this org-file, so it was possible to play online with this crack.
(But this doesn't help you with Nascar 2003...

I reinstalled the original game and it works fine online, so its not the serial, its gotta be the crack.

I've played online with a no-cd crack for rise of nations and medal of honor though.

Is there anything I could do to let me play Nascar online without the cd in the drive?

I've made an image using Alcohol and it I can mount it using Daemon and it works fine (I don't know about online as I don't want to use it online).

The only thing is the size it's 575mb, is it possible to reduce this as I've seen images much smaller than this?

I tried mini-image-ripper but it says it's for safedisc and NR2003 is securrom.

Any Help please.
