POP3 No-DVD/Fixed EXE

[djsolidsnake86]

how is possible a no-dvd for a starforce game? however don't work!
i hope that this No-DVD will be updated with a good next-version!

No-DVD doesn't work. But if you have a good data-part of the alcohol image (mdf-file) try to exchange your mds-file(!) with the one from that great swiss site copybase. Works perfectly for me!!! Just mount the image in Deamon 4.03 and start the game. You don't even need sfcure to run the game.
That method also works with any other SF-protected game. You just need a complete and good .mdf and the right .mds for your image

And by the way:

That reminds me, how do I download the mds from that site? All I get from that site is the description of the file protection

[jbMurdock]

visit copybase.ch and search your game in the Database (Datenbank).
Then click the linked name of the game to view the protection details. In the upper right corner of that details-box you find a link called "DPM-Dateien". The available mds-files for the requested game are listed right under the details-box when you follow that link. Now just search your Version (language) and download the mds-file with the physical disc information (DPM-data).
Most of the mds-files posted there work great for me when I mount em in Deamon 4.03 with RMPS-Emulation enabled.
In some rare cases the optical IDE-drives of your system don't work very well with the StarForce-Protection drivers. So, if the game still wants you to "put your CD/DVD into another drive" you have to unhook your optical drives manualy for the game images to work.
Hope that helps a little

I think this is supposed to be some kind of a joke. this is not a fix exe it is the original file. just check the size of the file 5,385,728 bytes the same as the original one so dont waste your time on this

You have to rename the mds-file!!! Must have the same name like the mdf!!!
Should work then

[Gradito]

Leezer wanted it, back on page 1 of the thread.

See? http://fileforums.com/showpost.php?p...5&postcount=12

I guess I should really just PM it to him.

maybe we'll finally have the gore patch done

[leezer3]

Right, thanks
I've got an identical MD5 for the EMEA DVD version of POP3.dat, and what this tells me is that the crack is bust
Why?-
POP3.dat is the 'real' executable for the game, and is executed within the SF virtual machine/ filesystem. My initial thought was that there could be different versions of this floating around for the different versions (US / EMEA & CD / DVD), and that the crack had been hacked, but would only launch a single version of this. These are identical though, so either we are missing a cracked POP3.dat or the crack is simply bull; I think the latter
