Actually after last night I realised the way of running the game that I described doesn't work...always.
It seems that it runs randomly, but around the 20th try. I tried restarting and cloaking with YASU, and sometimes the game starts, but not very often. So I am giving up on the Terran Conflict until a proper...lets say "tool" is released, or until the next patch, where hopefully TAGES will be removed.

EDIT: Update 06.07. - I got nerves of steel, so I'm playing the game. The way I start it - I spam the X3TC shortcut icon with the original img in the DT virtual drive and YASU running(dunno whether it's needed at all) until 10 or 20 instances of the .exe run simultaneously. Then I just start clicking "Ok" when the "Insert the original CD" error pops up and eventually - after 10-15 errors the game launcher starts. It can piss you off big time, but If you're so desperate to play X3TC that's the way to run it :P
