sorry for the bump.

I got the mini image from gamecopyworld.com

I also know how to disable the drives.

What is a usb 2.0 drive and how do i know if i have one?

EDIT- also when you say unplug can i use starforce nightmare for the drives?

EDIT2- what program should i use thats free that i can use to burn the image to a dvd?

What is a usb 2.0 drive and how do i know if i have one?

It is an external drive connected with your PC via USB 2.0
I think you should know if you have a USB 2.0 drive or a "normal" internal IDE drive ....
-> if there is a cable leading from your USB2 device to a strange box which can read DVDs you have a USB2 drive !

also when you say unplug can i use starforce nightmare for the drives?

I think this will not work ! You have to unplug the power cable of you drives (not your hardrive !!!)...

what program should i use thats free that i can use to burn the image to a dvd?

If it is an .mds/.mdf file you have to use Alcohol 120% and this is not for free ! I don't know freeware being able to burn Alcohol 120% images...

cheers muJi

what if i have an internal drive?

how do i unplug drives that are inside my computer?

what if i have an internal drive?

You will unfortunately have to buy a USB 2 DVD drive if you want to play SC3 without DVD ! The alternative is buying a IDE to USB2 converter which is about 15 $/€...

how do i unplug drives that are inside my computer?

Open your comp, and pull the the power cable of the drive you want to unplug (normally the smaller one of the 2, the other one is IDE)!
But watch out what you're unplugging ! I would not suggest to pull off the power cable of the HD your OS is located on

can anyone give me a set of steps to use if i want to play the game without the CD?

[MasterYoda34]

Currently, there is only one way to play the game from a backup, regardless of what anyone else says. And that is by inserting a copy made with Alcohol 120% into an External USB/DVD drive with RMPS emulation on. Currently, there is no other method. And chances are, StarForce will probably fix this method. Fortunatly, the next version of Daemon Tools (v4), will support StarForce.

The reason that External Drives work is because StarForce does not recognize them and therefore cannot use its own drivers. Which then allows RMPS Emulation to work.

There is no way to play without a DVD until Daemon Tools v4 comes out.

I think he could be talking about the warez version
Cant think of another reason why he would want to burn the image to dvd?

Oops, my apologies madkiller632

[DABhand]

Wrong,


Hes talking about the mini-image

[XdaywalkerX]

mini-image or not... if he have an original dvd he don't need a mini image or other useless stuff - think about - those guy must have a working dvd drive to install this game. whitout a installation a mini image is totally useless

if you have problems to start the game contact the developer of starforce - they will give you a rescue key to start the game without dvd - u can only use the key with the relevant hardware.

end of topic... senseless discussion - imho warez talk

It's not that easy to get a rescue key. I tried it. First you get hints about what you have to try. Only if this all don't work you get the key.

[XdaywalkerX]

Hints??? i've the ultimate hint - insert dvd and start the game....

[GLH]

And what if the game doesn't recognize your original disc?
