Oblivion works fine with DT 4.03

[Talus]

EB Games is known for releasing games to the public early.

I walked into the store as they were finishing up making all of their pre-order calls..and happened to pick up one the last unspoken for copies.

So if your implied that I obtained the game through illegal channels, think again

I don't think the game HAS any copy protection...honestly, I think you just have to have a copy in the drive, or an image mounted.

Using MiR to make a mini-image of the image I created didn't work though

The conclusion of all these Posts is: Oblivion has a simple CD Check which checks the contents of a file on the DVD/CD

i beg to differ, an alcohol 120% image was released on the newsgroups, the nfo stated the game was protected with securom 7, so there is a LOT of conflicting reports going on at the minute about the game

So i think we will have to wait and see when someone buys it and analyses the exe / tries to make an image etc (and/or sends the exe to someone who knows how to detect protected executables etc.).... someone reliable that is

Why should i think so? You gave me a reason for that?

I can't believe that a game like this, which took a couple of years for programming comes without a copy-protection!!!

But i will see by myself this weekend, when my legally bought copy of that game arrives.

Perhaps, this is an early game from the new generation of games without (significant) copy protection...?

I bought my copy yesterday at my EBgames here in Ontario. It was around 12:30 pm. I just went there to see when they were getting there shipment and it was there. He said that he was allowed to sell as the release date was Mar 20/06. As far as copy protection I don't believe it is Securom7. I copied the contents of the dvd into a folder then I made an ISO with MagicISO and mounted the ISO and it worked. I then burned the ISO and I'm able to play the game with the copy in my dvd drive. As far as my medium PC my PC stats are in my sig...There are enuff tweaks in the game to get even low end PC's running it well. Mine looks great and runs nice and smooth!!! What a great F'in game!! Get it..play it....live a new life!!

Hiya,
Would you be so kind as to explain in more detail how I make the game run with MagicIso? I've never used the program so am totally new to the concept.
I'd really appreciate your taking the time to help me with this.
Thanks
Sufione

I was just trying different ways of running the game...I was trying to find out why there wasn't any strong copy protection. MagicISO was just one of the ways I used to get it working. There is a NODVD crack out for it now, so you really don't need MagicISO for this! Anyway, MagicISO is very easy to work with. Not much to tell you about the Prog.

[sufione]

Thanks for the fast response. Sorry, but I don't see the crack. Where can I find it?

Dude, way to be an ass. The ship date for the game was the 20th, with most stores recieving copies on the 21st. I just picked up my copy from Best Buy about 1/2 an hour ago. So if you want to wait till the end of the week to get your "legal" copy, please do so. That will leave more copies for the people that actually want to get a copy.

I see you're making friends here, huh?

[Talus]

People are just jealous of people who got their retail copies early

I don't have to prove anything to anybody..I bought the game..scanned it with Protection ID v5.0c final and got nothing. Installed from original, created an image with Alcohol, mounted it...and I'm enjoying my legally purchased game.

Kudos to Bethesda for NOT using Starforce

I was simply trying to help people out who were either trying to decide whether or not to buy it (I won't buy a game that I cannot play without the CD/DVD) or what they had to do to get it working without the DVD.

All of you pirate-accusing jerks can kiss my ass

edit: aw screw it.. here is your proof:
