Alright, after hours of messing around with all the cracks and what not, I've finally found a way to get GTR working, WITHOUT disconnecting your hardware, so basically this can be done just with your mouse and keyboard. First, you'll need these items:
-Starforce Nightmare (google it and dnload it, it's like Starf*ck, but better)
-the game
-1.2.0.0 update
-1.2.3.0 hotfix update
-a language pack for 1.2.3.0 (can get it at gamecopyworld, etc.)
-the 2 .mds/mdf files for the miniimage...
-alcohol 1.9.2
You DON"T need the Ncry gtr.exe files, so u can just use the installation ones.
1) install Alcohol, Starforce nightmare and the GTR game.
2) install the 1.2 update
3) install the 1.2.3 update
4) install your language pack if necessary
5) use the starforce nightmare prog to shut off the appropriate IDE locations where your cdroms are located. it will stay off even if u reboot your computer, so you can close the program now.
6) mount the miniimage onto an alcohol virtual drive
7) run gtr.exe in the game directory. It will probably ask you to reboot the first time, since this is where starforce is installed. Do it.
8) run gtr.exe again, and it should work now.
i would suggest putting the starforce nightmare program easily accessible to where you launch the game, since you need to use it to re-enable your cdroms after you play, and also to disable when you want to play again. you can do this in real time, and you don't need to reboot your computer, so have fun!
I hope this helps you all out !!
