Hmmm, I thought as much! You know what you have done is illegal!!
Go and purchase the game! Do NOT come here expecting help with warez!! Fileforums is NOT a warez site! Enjoy your upcoming ban!

Ok i see that but can you please give me one more chance

Can someone expalin to me what this means?

1)In this article what does it mean by emulating the games copy protection?
2)what does this mean: The unfortunate side to this backing-up method is that your copy can become invalid with the next update patch for the game as the patch will also update the copy protection to the next level.


At the moment you can't get a 1:1 copy of the game burnt to a CDR, the best way to go in terms of 1:1 copy of the game is by mounting the games image and emulating the games copy protection. This can be done with BlindWrite burning software and Alcohol 120% burning software, using Daemon Tools to emulate the protection. The unfortunate side to this backing-up method is that your copy can become invalid with the next update patch for the game as the patch will also update the copy protection to the next level. *Remember, if you experience problems with burning the game at high speeds, (2 speed +) (both the read and write process), then burn the game at lower speeds such as 2 speed and under (both read and write process). A lot of the time burning the game at slow speeds will solve problems of the install not working, or the burner not bypassing the CD's protection.
