Cossacks II

that is right, starforcenightmare/****er is not the solution.
It might be, but only if u have a version it is included in, but than you would have found a manual there ( you need speciallt created ISO's etc)

that's true. the patch included in this release just patches the starforce 3 driver to an old version, i think. a version which doesn't re-enable ide drives after having them disabled by starforce nightmare. the copy protection from the game as is doesn't recognize that and therefore it is able to run the game properly.

and thanks for the tip with the 2 dll's or the scsi bus driver name from alcohol. seems that is the problem in making tm sunrise work, too.

Anyone know of a tool that I can use to unwrap the cossacks update 11.
Thinking it may be possible to update the game without updating StarF**k.

I'm using the german version of Cossacks 2.
The USB solution works (backup with alcohol, RMPS, IDE shut off with Starf***)

Is there a way to create a miniimage?
Is ist possible to play game without the external drive?

[AloneSoul]

could someone explain what is this USB method ?

USB Method:

1) Download new Alcohol 120%
2) remove existing SF protection

reboot after you used the exe file
3) Copy original CD with the datatype "Starforce 1/2/3" and the option "burn rmps to recordable media" with slow speed (1x)
4) active "RMPS" in the options menu in alcohol
5) get via emule

there are two files, first use sfdrvup.exe which causes an error, is ok
second use sfdrvpatch.exe and patch file
6) start game, game asks to reboot, do so
7) download StarF*ck from http://www.project-star****.tk/ and disable CD and disable "Node"
8) connect an external USB drive to your PC, insert disc2 and play

hope i didn't forget anything
