Mini- Images are Mega-Images for Madden 2006 and Dragonshard.
 

I made mini-images for both Madden 2006 and Dragonshard, 2 newer games that GCW does not have game fixes for as of yet. Both mini-images work fine but the problem is I have to let the entire original game disc copy to a mini-image to work, it seems if I use the same method as in the tutorial here they fail. So now I have 2 huge mini-images that are over 700mb and 800mb in size and would like to ideally get them down to a MUCH smaller size. At what point can I cancel the process to get what the game needs to launch? I'm assuming it looks for the games EXE file, so does that mean I can somehow unzip the mini-image and delete what I don't need or maybe there is a way to tell when to cancle the process using Alcohol 120%. Can anyone shed a little light on the situation here?

I think 1%-2%.

No. It looks for Data Position Measurement.

That will destroy protection and make the image not work.

I hope i have.

mini images dont work for madden nfl 06 !
but, GLH, SafeDisc doesnt look for DPM ?! :confused:
I may be wrong, correct me if i am, but Securom, StarForce and some other need RMPS emulation, but NOT SafeDisc (4) :)

hmm, im a noob at this, i am asking at this thread and on another as well for the mini image of the game, i have the original copy installed of dragonshard but i screwed my cd-rom... can anyone send the mini image to me by email or give me a link to it?:)

If you aint got a usable original cd then it's illegal to play therefore you are braking the EULA and the Forum rules, so, send your broken cd to the publisher and get a replacement, most only charge postage costs.

i have the original game, which, by the way, was a pain to get :P damn brazilian stores took a while to get the game :)
the problem is my cd-rom, hmm, my cd driver, the little thingy where u put ur cd on :P (ya i know, i am a noob at computers :P)
i learned though about how to use the daemon tools, im playing a lotr game i bought with an image on daemon tools...

anyway, i would apreciate the file :) borgesdosreis**********com is my email :) would be rly glad if u guys could help, thx :)

anyone?:) help would be rly welcome :P havent been able to play that game for some days, hatwe buying something and not being able to use it :(

dont bump, pisses off the mods
and wouldnt it be easier to go out and get a new cd/dvd drive and make the mini image?

it would cost about 100 bucks in my currency, and i just bought a new sound system for my car, i still owe 2 ... hmmm, how do u say it in english, when u divide the price of a product in several smaller ammounts of money and pay them over time... anyway, i got 2 more of those to pay :P

sorry for the previous bump, i just whish someone would help me in this
