Splinter Cell Chaos Theory

[coffin filler]

@ SCVirus. I dont have this game as of yet (wont until/if ever theres a fix) but im sure what you asked has been discused already in another SCCT thread. (Im not 100% though). I guess search is your best option until someone posts back in here but when your in the middle of something you/I/we want answers straight away. (Expecialy when trying to crack a game etc).

I have been following the threads, I've seen people say that it claims key is wrong (when it is right), that is due to rmps emulation not being present (on the drive or mds), but no one has said what happens otherwise, only that it doesn't work.

In that case we need someone else to post in this thread what happens in precise detail. Anyway what are your finding thus far ? (or you going to keep that under your hat until you have the facts).

I will post here again in a second, as I believe it was simply an error on my computer that I think I have now fixed.... If this is so I may have a very dirty and complicated workaround (software only though) within a few minutes. But every little but helps... post here your virtual drive experiances.

Ok look forward to reading your findings. (im in the UK and its 01:06 so im off to bed now. Sleep deprevation is starting to kick in). I will be looking tomorrow to read your findings.

Without RMPS emulation, the disc check never completes. It scans the disc for 5 minutes or so, then tells you that it cannot be verified (Backup of course). With RMPS enabled, the game starts straight away, as with non-backup original. Also, Alcohol and Daemon tools RMPS emulation both work fine. Today I will find if you can disable any present IDE drives, and still run the game. Currently, none of the PC's I've tested had ANY IDE optical drives. Sorry if this taking a long time, but my 3 rigs are in pieces, as I swap hardware in and out to find my right setup.

Also, mounting an image doesn't seem to work with this Starforce version. You need a disc backup, and that disc MUST be in the USB drive.

Im glad your taking some time to look into this. (i only have one pc @ present but when i get some in to work on i will also be trying a couple things as regards to SF3). If enough of us try/test various things out we will hopefully find a stable work-around.

Now let me get this straight. Are you saying that you did actually get it (as in an image of Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory) to work with Daemon tools???
