the seventh seal (taiwan game) most protect game ever

hey

i am having a very rough time trying to backup a taiwan made game called "the seventh seal- ressurection of the dark lords"

it has the following protections as told by my taiwan friend:

safedisc 2.xx latest version
securom 4.x
serial key-it checks the cd if it is original or not and then ask to re-enter the cd key
the automenu doesn't come up if you put in bad cd and im sure the install program is also encrypted
-by the way it is not just 1 cd but a collection of 5- my friend tells me that only cd1 is protected though

i tried the following softwares

clone cd latest verson

nero latest version

alcohol 120% latest version using securom 4.x and safedisc 2.8 serttings

winiso (thought maybe worth a try- couldn't even open the iso)


tell me is this even possible- can it not be copied and if it is like this then we are in deep trouble as game companies all over the world will take this as an example and none of the cds could ever be backed up.

Its impossible to have Safedisk and SecuROM protection at the same time.

i know it sounds odd but that is what he said

and this guy has been trying for two weeks now to get a solution for this problem

he told me there was sd2 for sure but he also mentioned some other. when i got a hold of the cd i found i couldn't do anything to copy it.

i said i could help him (not very bright thing to do huh)
but i think its impossible

even on the original it takes about a minute for the cd to check if the key and the cd is correct

As i said, its impossible to have Safedisc and SecuROM on a CD at the same time.
Try this to analyze the main .exe and see what it tells you.

Liteons are known to be very good ones indeed.

When was the game released?
Which company made it? (whats their website btw?)
