X3 - Reunion (help needed)

[Xerxis]

Hello folks. I've never had any problems with cheating StarForce before, but I can't get this game to run. The instructions on how to get the game to run are driving me insane and in my opionion are way too complicated. Usually I just had to load the image into DAEMON tools or whatever, hide all the drives and then simply run the game. However, when I try to run X3, I always get the message that I should "put the cd in another drive"...I find that really confusing. I need help please!

Hey, maybe I can help! Where did you get those instructions, and where did you get the game?

Hm...I have the exact opposite. Normally, I can't run any images from Starforce protected games but with X3 it worked. I just followed the instructions and I could play this game. Uninstalled it a 30 minutes later and now I'm saving money for new hardware ;-(

My friend has a 6800 and it still lags on ALL LOW :S. All other games work fine for him, so I don't know what to think.

So did you also disconnect every drive before starting the game? I didn't do that because I thought it wasn't necessary since those hide-programs should take care of that. Maybe that's the error.

I did everything that was written in the instructions. Exactly step by step. On MY comp, it worked perfectly.

Actually, what instruction did you use? where did you get it? does it use sfnightmare? can you explain it?

I also have this game, but i prefer play with my cd than unplug my drive everytime i want to play.
