POP3 No-DVD/Fixed EXE
 

The last few days we received 3 submissions: Prince of Persia: The Two Thrones v1.0 [ENGLISH] No-DVD/Fixed EXE

We have not been able to determine who created this Fixed EXE and if it is working properly for the retail version of the game. It could have been taken from the Demo version of the game! But it seems to be working for a few people.

Any feedback if this EXE is working or not is welcome!

doesnt work for me....install, paste on top of original pop3.exe, run game, and I get insert pop3 disc into another drive error. Didn't try with help of SFNightmare or SFcure, but thats what it was supposed to do right? work without these tools.

Nope didn't work for me either without or even dvd inserted in the drive
NE TRICKS requred? ;)

Not working :(

Same here... tried it and it didn't work...

nope not workin'

grrrrr starforce!!!!!

[Edit by Joe Forster/STA: It's fine to hate Starforce but don't hate its developers. They're only giving a too effective answer to a question from greedy publishers!]

Very odd :confused:
With the EMEA DVD image mounted, the SF check passes, but the game then crashes with no errors etc?!
I suspect that this is a hacked version of the EMEA CD exe. Could someone please post an MD5 sum for POP3.dat- I thjink this is the 'real' file that the SF crud launches, and want to see if its any different.

Conclusion? I think this probably might work with the EMEA CD version, we shall see :)

no luck also
 

no luck here also installed the game copied the pop file then mouted the mini image

why does it say to copy the intire dvd in your game directory

By the way
 

by the way to the lucky person who patch the crack and works is there any other option you have done before patching the game????:rolleyes:

Don't get your hopes up folks. This seem to be yet another "works for some ppl" thing. I'd love to test it thou. Won't be able to do that on my temporary GeForce2 MX-400. Hehe. I do have the original disc, what should I use to make a image, BlindWrite? I'd rather not install Alcohol cause I had problems with it in the past. I don't think my DVD-drive are capable of making a "perfect" image.

Feedback
 

Although I've purchased the original disc of the game, cause I'm fan of these 3 POP series :D , I've noticed that a gamefix for this game came up and I tried to reinstall the game and just see if it works. I don't know if this fix works for a specific group-release or version of the game, but I know that it doesn't work with the UK original version of the game. I get exactly the same error message as if I try to run the game with the disk not present in the drive.

Hiya mate,
It authenticates my standard EMEA DVD fine (Image & retail), so I'm assuming that it is from an EMEA version (We already know that the US version refuses to authenticate EMEA images & vice-versa). The game crashes after the protection though, so I'm looking for someone with a CD version so I can get a MD5 sum of the POP3.dat file.

As of the minute, I'm of the opionion that this file simply fixes the blacklisting, and you still have to have an image mounted for it to work- Can you try with an image mounted by all drives enabled please?

Cheers

The Starforce AMIR.DLL is still one of the imported dlls, so this exe can not work.
