G'day DarknightCVS,

It may very well be the version of the game, patch update, crack that you are using.

i.e. If you've installed from your original copies (being version 1.0) & applied the version 1.1 crack well it wont work of course. Not saying you've done this, however in most cases this is the reason it may still ask for the CD.

On the basis you have a US,UK version of the game :

Do as follows :

1. Fresh install of Rainbow 6 Ravenshield. (Full Install Option)

2. Save a copy of the core.dll & RavenShield.exe that are in your system folder. I like to make another Folder called original exe & place them in this. The purpose of this is for any future updates should they have a patcher bug.

2. Grab the Latest Patch being Version 1.1 & apply it.

3. Grab the Raven Shield v1.1 [ENGLISH] No-CD Patch over here & open it with winrar.

Inside is a RavenShield.exe & a cdcheck11_patch.exe - extract / drag these 2 files into your Ravenshield>system folder. You should get a "would you like to replace your current Ravenshield.exe"....of course click yes.....then execute (double click) the cdcheck11_.exe. This will patch the core.dll file which holds the extra cd check protection of the game.

The other file in the crack you've downloaded "cdkey11_patch.exe" is not required if your simply playing single player. In fact provided you own your original copy.....you wont need this, because you'll have your own original CD Key should you wish to play Multiplayer.

4. Run the Ravenshield shortcut on your desktop & you should be right to go.

Hope that helps you........
