Secondly, CaptainTrips, the only way you are going to convince me that you've found some magical way of forcing a burner to do perfect copies of SD2 is to post some info to back up your ludicrous claims.
There have been plenty of posts in many forums by peeps with more obvious knowledge than yourself. They all agree on the same thing. That SD2 is a very clever protection scheme which utilises weaknesses in the firmware and operating abilities of end-user CD writers. This is not a software question.......if it was then CloneCD would never work on any burner. The fact is that it is clearly a hardware based problem. i.e. have the correct hardware and you'll burn a copy which works on all CDROMS. It wasn't that long ago that some of us refused to buy new hardware to allow CloneCD to be used to the full. Now that seems foolish as pretty much everything can be copied.
So my point to you is this. I have enough knowledge to be totally convinced that the problems we've had with SD2 are based upon the hardware and firmware that we are running. NOT any software. So if you've managed to alter you burner's firmware AND it still works then WELL DONE INDEED. You really are very clever indeed. However, if you're bragging because you have a working copy of a SD2 title (RA2 is the only one currently causing major problems) which many people have already achieved, then sit down and chill. What most of us are after is a workable copy for everyone who wants it. The success rate is only determined at this time by the hardware that peeps are running.
So unless you fancy explaining yourself, then please stop posting silly "look what I can do" rubbish posts.

So my post to you is this,
what is your problem ??? That someone could be out there, who could know or maybe know how it works without this "buy new burner" shit and won't tell you right away how it works ??? Oh man, grow up!!! If you treat people like you do, than don't expect anything of them. Buying a new burner is your solution ?
O.k. why not. I shit money all day long
First, it is no magic, cause i am not a
magican
Second, weakness in the firmware is likely wrong,
operating abilities of writer maybe
correct, but it's only one half of the truth
Third, the ability of software doesn't matter,
I agree with that
Fourth, I have not modified my firmware, there
are better people than me hunting and
trying this solution
Fifth, "RA2 is the only one currently causing
major problems", come on man, read some
posts and forums, and say it again
Sixth, "please stop posting silly "look what I can
do" rubbish posts", yep, this was my last
of this sort
O.k. this is my last post in this thread. Makes no fun anymore. I have not achieved the honor, fame and respect i came for
Buhuuuuuhuu. You all convinced me, it has no sence to say it works and not to tell how. That is really mean of me. I am a bad, bad boy and an asshole, too!!!
So go and buy a new burner, go hunting for new settings and keep up your wailing and awe about this "good" SD2 protection
and decorate your romm with coasters. And when the next and protection comes, buy a new burner and so on and so on........ But that is the way of life, some know-it-all deserve it not better
Oh, and I give a f...., ehm, I don't care if you believe me or not, have no interest in convincing you.
Bye
the biggest mean asshole
