I've got a problem with Starforce Nightmare.
I'm new at this, so excuse if some of my questions are stupid.
I start SN and then i click on: Disable Node, Disable CD... But nothing works (my cdrives are still active). The procedure time is very short. I don't know if this is normal, but if it isn't, how can i solve this problem?

Have you scsi-CD-Rom´s?....or look at your Device-Manager...if the CD-Rom´s Activ...or not?.
The last but not least....Unpluggt the cable from the CR-Rom. In starforce Nightmare click only on Disable node.

Lo all,
I have managed to mount a SCCT mini image from an external drive using Deamon tools and SN 1.12 and it worked great...I also managed to mount the image from a ram drive and that also worked fine. Maybe im just lucky..maybe not, couldnt get it to work with a backup DVD on a usb drive. Any others tried to mount from an external drive or Ram drive and had same luck??

Regards
Bagpipe Nation.

Sorry folks, im at work right now, will post when I get home....
Maybe explained wrong, I mounted an image from a ram drive, not mounted in a ram drive. There are several programs out there to create ram drives, just google it.
I use a ram drive for internet cache so it clears when I turn off the computer, after reading several posts about ppl mounting images from external drives using Dm tools & SN 1.12 I thought i would try copying the mini image to the ram drive and mount it from there. The mini image I used was the one from gamecopy world, its the larger image, 13mb unrared I think, could not get it to work with the smaller image on there site. I think it has something to do with starforce checking to see if there is an image being read from an IDE drive when checking the cd..as far as I am aware, it does not check SATA drives and external, so a ram drive would work great I thought..and it did.
ps.. I also turned on emulation in DM tools.
Hope I explained it a bit more, if not, I will check again when I get home form night shift.

what ram drive software did you use?
i'm trying Superspeed RamDisk, but so far no luck

all i've done is create a 20meg ramdrive and copy the mini image to that.
i renamed the daemon tools bus driver when it installed.
i've enabled all emulation in daemon tools, done the registry pnp bios extension thingy,and renamed the vendor of the virtual drive to usb2.0.
installed awxDTools, closed daemon from the sysem tray, leaving all emulation enabled.
mounted the mini image (from G.B.W.)from the ramdisk, by right clicking on the mds file.
and finally tried to run the game, it sat there for 3 minutes, and then said that the disc key i had entered did not correspond to the disk in the drive, and to make sure i used the correct disc key

i know my key works cos i bought the game, so it must be a prob with reading the mini image?

External USB drivers might be a temporary solution

Hello, lads,

I had installed SH3 from the mds / mdf image of the game, mds is the karlmueller's version. This image resides on a haddisk on an external drive, which is connected via USB. The game installed perfectly, upgraded, disabled my lone cd (whic is primary slave), mounted the image at external drive,

and voila!

the game will certainly work, but since i have used the mds of karlmueller, my serial number is rejected! I can test it (and will %99percent succeed), if he could PM me the EMEA version!

Try USB connections, friends, you will prevail!

And Karl, I hope you will read this post and help me

By guys!!

Mount the image from a ram drive to a DM tools virtual drive (all emulation on)...you cant mount to a ram drive, hopes this clears it up.
On another note, dont know if somebody knows anyway around this, I took a cracked version of the protection.dll from my NO-CD patched CMR2005 and renamed it udmlib.dll and copied it over the original one in SCCT to try it out. NOw when I start SCCT I get the CM2005 picture trying to check the disk. As far as I can tell I think it bypassed the protection but was unable to start the game...think its cause it try's to point a file or exe in the CMR2005 directory instead. Does anyone know how to edit this to work with SCCT?? Crazy Idea I know, but It may work . My kids dont understand how to mount an image so a Cd crack would be better for me, I would buy SCCT on D2D just to get a cd free version but you cant activate in Scotland, only america according to there site
