Okay! Alright!!
Now there is some progress right there!!
The way your post reflects itself,
svdkloes, seems that this backdoor actually works for you!!
However, as it has been tested by almost everyone here, you are the only lucky person!
You call it "
A Backdoor to StarForce". I may call it a
glitch that you've exploited!
Because if it's a backdoor then I am recommending your name for the next Nobel Prize...
The registry file creates a lot of “
HardwareProfile” entries. I am trying to go through them but that may take a lot of time. Seems like you are the only one with the upper edge here.
Also, its only "
HKEY_CURRENT_"
. Is there other trees like "
HKEY_LOCAL_" ?
Are you using Daemon or Alcohol? Their version #?
Do you have a writer(s)? How many physical CD/DVD drives?
Did you used SFNightmare and/or StarFu*ked? Did you disable your Drives?
I followed the instructions carefully and I’ve noticed something.
Firstly, no matter I hold
Ctrl or not, if there is no MiniImage (Your MiniImage) mounted; there won't be an "Enter new CDKey" dialog. It will always show an "Error, Retry" dialog. I must mount your image and then and only then, holding Ctrl does its trick!
Secondly, I hade tried this on EUR v1.0 (No mod of any sort)
I have the patch file ready at hand but I won't apply to save myself from a re-install
Thanks a lot for your effort and you just might do this thing...
Okay, so you just might not but I am still recommending you for that Nobel Prize!
Zillion & BITEME, the last Silent Hunter III thread was closed because people started to talk off-topic. I don't want that to happen again so please no more saying Thanks or complaining about wasting time.
Zillion, no offense but there was an attitude error in you recent post(s). Star Force is giving people nightmares and if someone thinks he/she is close to something... well it’s a hell-lot better then no news at all.
None of us can decide weather something is BS or not. We are all sick and tired of installing and re-installing the game over and over without luck.
Someone cracked v1.0 did he/she not?
The image was a small ~50KB dl and mounting it takes 2 seconds + 10 seconds for reading the read-me file and that’s it! How much time could it have wasted? Now, you must have had patched the game first didn’t you? Bad mistake...
