Seems it's only one group: RELOADED.

I doubt the other serious groups (such as DEViANCE) are far behind RLD. It's these clone groups that are practically guaranteed to never put out an actual crack.

Neither have a million other SF games. Just because a group has the knowledge and ability to crack StarForce doesn't mean they have the time, resources or willingness.

All latest cracks for starforce are total b/s. groups like DIE surely can't crack it and probably RELOADED also. you can curse me for such profanity but let's face the truth - why they didn't cracked Cossacks II if it uses SF3.4 but they dealt with the newest 3.6 version encountered in "BIA - Earned in blood" game or an earlier 3.5 in 'Sniper Elite"? Most strange was their release of fix for "Soldiers - Heroes of WWII" year after the store date. IMHO they have access to unprotected files which come for example from different countries releases (in Poland some games are have different protections or even don't have any).
the same thing was happening with my Shade v1.2 crack - it was protected with a bit earlier mutation of SF3.4 - i didn't cracked it but i just used files from the magazine release of the game which was patched already to 1.2.
Summarizng - we cannot speak of real SF3 cracking today since it has not broken yet. The happy news is that it was cloned (a group called MiRROR created almost ideal CD clone of SF3 protected games, but they still have problems copying the DVDs) and a more succesful workaround was made (no USB or DVD+RW glitch). It' just a matter of time now....

Just a tip: Mirror didnt cloned such games. This have been discussed over cdfreaks a lot. There is just A METHOD ( and only one) and mirror have nothing to do with it.

you can read that on nforce. games that were released as cd versions ARE nearly perfect clones (they would be nuked either way). as it is stated in nfo the copies can be run in a cd/dvd reader and recognised as the real cd without using sf nightmare or sfcure.

TOCA Race Driver 2 released today by RELOADED with a proper crack. And it has Starforce 3.3. I think we can expect more and more proper cracked Starforce releases by RELOADED in the next few months. Crow taste good?
