You dont need a usb drive. And you shouldent get the unlicenced disk error.
If you are, then you have missed one of the steps for getting Cossacks 2 to work.
Remember ths crack will not work if you patch the game to 1.1

hmm well, i have tryed it with reinstalling, multiple times etc etc..

so, lets see what we have now..


1 group of people can lay it following the official carbon way

1 group of people can play it through the usb- trick

1 group who cant play it, whatever they try to do..


-are there certain programs we have to shut in order to make the game playable?

I found that you must disable node and sec ide using the latest SFnightmare just before you try to boot cossacks2, because something is in the habit of re-enabling them.

i'm not stupid and I can read, I tried MANY times the step by step method and it didn't work for me.

Didn't worked on W2K ;s

Okay so your the most intelligent intellectual brainbox to ever walk this sweet earth, but some poor people are not as clued up on this game as you, and I only mean to help, no offence meant.

hmm, i have downed star****, but it seems quite difficult..
( well, ok, i have a german version, and my german isnt that good, so that might be a little problem for me to :P)

is there someone here willing to write a little tutorial on how to use it correctly? (using beta 0.83)


and another question, when i select the lates starforce profile, and i "patch blacklisted" it says it has found 2 drivers, but patched 0 ? how can i kill those 2 drivers? (alcohol disabled, daemon has changed .dll file-names)


thanks in advance!
