Curious. I use Starfock 0.82 with Starfarce 3.4.63 and it works !

But : who cares ?

Bonjour chez vous,

I'd also like to add a minor correction. You have to use patch StarForce63 and StarForce49 afterwards as well. So here are the steps I do to run the game (at least what I did, because I already completed the game ) :

01/ Launch StarFock
02/ Choose the protection Starforce63
03/ Patch Black List
04/ Choose the protection Starforce49
05/ Patch Black List
06/ Disable your CD Roms
07/ Mount the mini-image with Daemon Tools
08/ Launch the game - Play the game - Quit the game
09/ Choose the protection Starforce49
10/ Enable your CD Roms
11/ UnPatch Black List
12/ Close StarFock

So this means, that you should try two methods to run the game in case the first method fails. Have fun.

BTW, does the game ever play HumanGD.ogg? That was the soundtrack for the Gambler's Joint in the demo verison. Do you like this soundtrack ?

I need a totally bulletproff dummy-howto to get this thing to run, non of you guys advices had made it possible for me to get the game to run.

I have tried burning the images to cds (like i prefer it) and install from there, i have mounted them with clonecd and D-tools and installede from there, i have mounted and dismountede the miniimage 100 of times, run star**** and over and over again, and it just wont run, I must be freaking stupid.

Im using a danish version of win2000 if that has anything to say, and my dvd drive is slave on the primary channel, and my cd writer is master on my secondary channel, if that has anything to do with it.

Would somebody carve it out in HUGE letters for me what to do, from start to end

YES your with stupid ----->

Put your DVD drive on the secondary channel.

Bonjour chez vous,

Yeah, you also need to configure Star**** once and only once. Having a HDD and a CD or DVD drive on the same cable also slows down your HDD and Star**** doesn't work properly then. When both your cd writer and your dvd drive is on the same cable (I suggest secondary), you can configure Star**** to disable the drives on secondary channel. You might also need to use Agressive or SuperAgressive patching.

Well i did that but in adition i tried to disconnect the drives completly, I then mounted the minimage with deamon tools, and started scrapland up, it looked promesing for a while, it actually started checking the disk, but then after it finished doing that, BAM it shut down the computer, no freezing just a regular shutdown. What the HECK happened there, has anybody encountered that before !?!?

I have just bought a new cpu, and it gets plenty hot, it runs at around 70 celcius right now i think, and it shut down at 85, can the cpu have gotten that hot in those few sec it tried to start up scrapland !?

[bruuno117]

Should i still run star***** even when i have manually disconnected my optic drives, and should i enable emulation in d-tools, and which one ?
