the ultimate splinter cell solution

[Muyfa666]

None of the mentioned ways worked for me, but I finally managed to find a way to bypass SF. This *should* work for everyone.

1. Install the game as usual, apply any desired patch.
2. Download "Screen Antics: Johnny Castaway" and install it.

Now, thats for preparation. Here comes the important part:

3. Eject the SC:CT disc and put it in again - upside down (VERY important). You may hear a strange sound from your DVD-drive. Thats just the StarForce-protection thats moaning (knowing that you have found a way to kill it).
4. Wait for the screensaver to boot up, then carefully try to start the game without interrupting the screensaver (this part is hard, but easy does it. So does practise).
5. Tada! Now SC:CT runs fine, even with a backup disc. Only problem with this fix is that Sam will only be able to walk at the left. It's a bit strange, but you'll get a hang of it.

Important! Do NOT try this unless you are fully educated in how to run "Screen Antics: Johnny Castaway". If anyone tries this without having the proper knowledge, your house may burn down and/or you will get herpes. Several cases of pets with chicken pox have also been reported.

So in short - this is ONLY for advanced users!
