I didn't do any copy, hell I even can't. Damn game restrain my right to do myself a backup copy and, with our laws, THAT's illegal. But I don't mind, as long as I can enjoy what I paid for.

Anyway, you see the common sense here.

This is one of those things, that people are not sure about law wise.

1. You cant technically install the same disc on 2 machines, people think you can aslong as they are in your own home, but technically no, 1 copy per machine.

2. You can however, install on a machine, remove at a later date then install on a new one. You just cant however have on both machines at once.

3. Doesnt matter what intepretation is thrown at me from here, it clearly states in any game EULA and ESD (European Software Directive) that 1 copy per machine, no but's or maybe's.


So thats why tbaher said it was sooooo illegal, but again it isnt that bad compared to buying a burned copy or downloading an image.

Hello guys

nobody can explain like it with the mini image here plays. with the Nightmare it doesn't work.......


Or later a mini image comes for Germans plays.



sorry for my bad English. I come from Lohberg.

perhaps it does not work because you use the serial of the german version. i did not test it because i have no english serial.

yeah .. it's sad that law and common sense don't always agree

[Melthroak]

Totally on your side for that.
Plus, it's fun to see how laws tend to be contradictive of other laws.
Ommpf, sorry for that syntax, my native language IS french after all! (And no I'm not from France, just to avoid some kind of debate on this!)

It's nice to have some additionnal info on the license regulations though.
One last thing, I read the license agreement, and nowhere it says I only have the right to install it on only one computer. So we have to know by definition that you're allowed just one licensed.

With all those contracts, there should be a law course included with high school! Would make it so much easier on the brain

You didn't bought the game. You only bought ONE license to install and play the game. This license allows you to install and play it on ONE computer. If you want to install and play it on another computer, you have to uninstall it from the first computer.

their that thinks also for the German version the mini image publishes.



Sorry for my bad English, I come from Germany.

Hi, I'm a new member of this forum and I'm sorry if I'll say something that's not right

I've tried the mini-image of game copy world, but I always receive the error of the activation code which isn't the same of the disc code. Is there a difference between the serial of the europe version and english one? The mini-image of game copy works only with a specific version of the game?

Thx.

Hi to everybody

Mini Image posted on GCW is the same I created few days ago posted via P.M. to few users on this forum.

It doesn't work mounted with Alcohol or Daemon Tools, and any trick for inhibit starforce protection suddenly fails.
The only way for playing is to use the .MDS file included in the mini-image zip file (.MDS is the DPM or RMPS file) and the .MDF of the game (4.15 Gb), and burning it with Alcohol (latest version) enabling RMPS writing at 1x on any dvd media, and then putting copied dvd into any DVD-ROM SCSI or USB2.0 (I suggest to use any ide to usb 2.0 converter or external box).

I hope this could solve any issue.

Hi italian friend

I've tried to burn the mini-image .MDS together the mini-image .MDF at 2,4 write speed with rmps option, but it doesn't work. How can I burn the mini-image .MDS together the image .MDF of the game?
