FM 2006 Mini image

[Joe Forster/STA]

For your information, the archive that Sergio_V downloaded, a so-called "Chocolate Edition", is a fully functional but still copy protected rip of the FM2006; I just checked it out, out of curiosity. (Damn, my Russian is rusty... Anyone can gimme a full-sized picture of that yummy girl, full in chocolate?! )

[Sergio_V]

If you don't have the original cd ( ) how did you setup the game ?? (...probably you used an image.....)

I downloaded archive a so-called "Chocolate Edition". Its fully functional, but it size only 50 MB. It is FM2006 (Sigames), but without sound, foto, languages (only English) and skins.
So i haven't full image, but have a game.
Mini-umage - it's image with size 1-10 MB, not a 700MB. In FM 2005 mini-image have size around 3 MB.

P.S. Sorry for my bad English

I think that up-to-date there is NO mini image to use with FM2006.

There are only workarounds to use a full image (from CD) for playing without having the CD into the drive.

Those w/a work great on both Windows (Xp & 2k).

I'm sorry, Sergio, but that's all.

If you mean 6.0.1, the answer is YES.

I am having problems playing the game. I have did that Windows NT thing but after a while playing a message pops up: FM 2006 is running low on memory please quit. It can't be my computer. I have 1024 DDR Ram and 3.2 ghz but that happens every time..

And it will!

This is a problem with running in NT Compatibility Mode!

Did you try to use the win2K w/a on WinXp ?
I'm not sure it works 'cause i didn't test it, but there's no reason to not work...

WHOAH, Calm down people!!!!

Firstly, Sergio_V I didn't make the mini image, I just discovered it doesn't work, and I wasn't the first, so don't credit me with that, it wasn't my work! The image I made was a FULL image of MY ORIGINAL CD. Like hundreds of others have.

Secondly, If you are on Windows XP, YOU DO NOT NEED TO CHANGE COMPATIBILITY. With D-Tools running, and the image mounted, use the s4h program, click hide, give it 20 seconds or so to make sure it's finished then run the game. That's all. Changing compatibility will cause the memory low errors

Antonk, or whoever it was whose game keeps failing on them - I had this too.I think it's anti-blaxx's doing. Uninstall the game from ADD/REMOVE PROGRAMS. do NOT do it from the FM2006 setup on the cd/image. Reinstall it and you should be fine to go. That worked for me! (I'm on XP Pro)

Whoever got the 50mb "flavoured" copies, well done you downloaded either a bogus (possibly viral) file, or the demo.

For whoever asked, I'm not Italian, London born n bred. Me ol' china.


So. Install the game. If you have it installed and it's being troublesome, uninstall it and reinstall it
Uninstall antiblaxx
start D-Tools
mount the image
Open s4h
Click hide
Give it a few seconds (I found if you immediately open FM2006 you're not giving it enough time and it asks for the disc. If this happens, click Restore in s4h, wait 10 seconds, click hide, wait ten seconds)
Run the game.

For Windows 2000 I don't know if you need a different method, I only have XP Pro, but let me know if the s4h method works as well as it does on XP.

To save confusoin here, feel free to PM me FOR ADVICE.

I will NOT send any images. I will NOT send any mini images. The only thing I WILL send is a link to s4h and I WILL report anyone who requests image files.

Hi

I have gone to create an image of my CD but one hour has gone and I'm at 1% - should it really take this long? Does it speed up at all? I'm using Alcohol 120% to do this but all I get are read errors (which I understand are normal for the first 3%) but is it really going to take days to create this image?

Cheers for your help

this is a known issue. people who actually own the game on cd have the error as well. it's to do with safedisc protection. There is a huge topic on the official si games forums here: Si games Memory Crash Bug
