nocd exe for GTASA 1.01?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Then i guess you are a pirate to, Because you can play the game with the original disc.
Or is it that you also want to keep the originals in good shape no scratches ect. on the disc.
For me thats the reason why i want to play the games without inserting the origanal disc`s .
simply calculating
1 game cost around 50 Euro,
1 harddisc of 200 GB cost around a 100 Euro,this is good enough for 40 game images. while 40 games cost around 2000 Euro
so for me its better to buy a new HD then buy the games again,if they are damaged.

As i said, i cant remember if i had to use sd4hide for SC CT as i aint played in weeks any games and its confusing trying to remeber settings for all.

No to dude above it dont mean i only use a mini .mds, i still need keep the .mdf i made in alcohol, just replace the .mds it made with 1 thats on web or game still detects not real disc (not sure why or if same for all)

Also i didnt try to just dissable the individual roms in device manager as i have used a SATA HDD(s) 2+ years i simply can afford to kill the whole EIDE controler.

The best way to play SC:CT is still to have a legit purchased copy. I haven't tried it yet, since I always wait until there are a no-cd/dvd crack before I buy a game, but in this case, I have ordered it anyways knowing that I will have to use the disc. Someday, there might be a convenient way to play it without the DVD, but as of now - there isn't. And that's too bad.

I find it strange that no one have figured out a simple way to bypass this protection yet. There are many good crackgroups out there. This protection really must be a b*tch. Oh well.

Its nearly 2006 and "the best way to play games" aint with a disk in rom tray, i have 300gig HDD so i can have a lot of games installed and i dont want to hunt for and swap media all the time, i got my copy of SC-CT for £20 in pcworld as it was sold of cheap as it didnt shift at new because nobody wanted starforce crap on their pc's. (im suprised most n00bs knew this ).

Unreal 2004 etc etc all patched games after release to fix bugs and remove need for disk to be in roms, some other big game did same in last 2 weeks but i cant remember lol.

Have you tryed the steps i take (1 to 5 as i mention in my thread start)
Because i believe that most of you don`t really read the post`s but just reply on the last post reply.

Is there anyone that can confirm the way i play the games,that this work also for anyone else.
i have tryed it with scct,kingkong and prince of percia T2T these are all games with at least 50 threads and more then a hundred reply`s.

For me it works great ,
but as Muyfa666 says (Someday, there might be a convenient way to play it without the DVD, but as of now - there isn't. And that's too bad.)
My question to you is did you already tryed it?? because if you have you know that there is a way to play these games without a disc.

Why would i want to reread your post, its overkill, i dont need to do anywhere near that to play SC-CT, ive been playing it without my disk since Daemon Tools 4 came out, "you cant teach your granny to suck eggs"

In a few mins im going to go load up the game to see exactly how little i need do to run it, opening up case and unplugging drives is a absolute NO GO for me, id rather do without and play with the disk or not play at all.

Can I ask, from where did you get the .mds/mdf mini -image?

Have tried everything else but still have not been able to get game(King Kong) to run.
