Working Splinter Cell 3 Backup

[robbdn]

Well, some may say that the "not yet fully confirmed" method works for them, it definitely does not work in all cases.

I tried with karlmuller's EU mds in addition to LeatherFace's (as was previously confirmed) without success. Also using LG drive with latest firmware, and latest A %120 so I'm afraid I'll have to add to the confusion as to why this seems to be working for some. Only difference was I did not use a DVD+RW, but a DVD+R, have no idea if that could possibly make some difference, but I doubt it.

there's no difference.
I tried with RW and it does not work

2 JJ I'm sorry I forgot. Here is the link.

Well its really Hardware based i think... Some like me have luck and some not... Maybe an new SCCT Patch will fix it (i hope not) but atm it works.

Yet another SCCT-Thread.
Please mods... Paste ´em all together and stick the thread.
It´s a pain in the ass to have dozens of threads - and users asking permanently the same questions.

Hi guys, I followed your hints and I created a backup dvd of SCCT. I used the mds file from copybase.ch (Panoramix) and I burned DVD with the lastest version of Alcohol 120% with RMPS ON. I've got a NEC ND-3500 AG external USB with the lastest firmware and I used a DVD+RW. After I created my copy, I used starf*** to disable my IDE drive and I disabled all my virtual device. I actived all emulation option of Daemon Tools and put my backup copy in my USB DVD and the game started.

I hope that this post could help some gamers.

Now Let's PLAY!

What CD key did you use? The European one that have been circulating on the Web?

Actually, this thread was made to discuss on how to play WITHOUT the external USB drive. The method you used is already all-too-well-known.

So now this is for the elite pro's of you.
Mushukyou asked if there is any possibilty to make your PC believe that an USB-stick is a real device. So if that is possible we just need a new fake-image that includes the autorun features of the original. This should be possible for a size of a few Mb's. Then either run the image from USB-stick or put the data to it. But how to put dpm to it? It's up 2u2 find out.

just for my own understanding:

WHY THE HECK do u have to enable emulation in D-Tools, if playing the game form an external DVD-Drive?

that sounds a bit crazy to me though d-tools doesn't have anything to do with my external drive does it?

thx

Daemon Tools emulation also works for external/internal (real drives, not virtual) drives...
