Hey folks!

I was wondering if there is any news on this protectionfront - the fixed .exe solution from the almighty, prised and beloved 'Deviance' group didn't work as intended, screwing up the whole game (as posted elsewhere too). Is there going to be a fix for that one? Or has anyone another solution up his/her sleeve?? I do hope so, for after all we are used to superb work form deviance...

Keep on rolling!

Yours,

Does also not work with the German version.


Did anyone try an emulation program to fool the protection?

[LongstreetCSA]

Not that I know of. I have been looking around a bit, but as far as I can tell there is still no solution out there that does the trick (not for the English version and not any other versions). Seems to be kind of a hard to beat protection...

I got it to work by making an Image of my orig. Game with Alcohol. Just made it with Securom 4.x/5.x Settings.

Then mounted it with the latest version of curerom (its version 2.0.1) and it works.

Not to forget I used curerom with Deamon Tools 4.

I have also used the TC2M 2.40 No-CD Crack, and it screws the game up. If anyone has a solution please tell! Thanks

[LongstreetCSA]

No, as far as I know there is still no fixed version of the no-cd exe for that game, and yes the existing version screws up the game to make it pretty much unplayable.

...although the game DOES work fine with the original disk (patched or unpatched - but use the patch because it fixes quite some problems) - so I guess the problem is just the no-cd crack that is not working (for either the normal version nor the patched version).

I downloaded and installed Curerom 2.0.2. (the latest now). Then copied back the original patch exe file back to the game folder. Configured Curerom the same way showed in Curerom's Tutorials for another game. Mounted the bin image in Daemon Tools 4.03HE and closed it according with the tutorial. Opened the game with Curerom. Didn't work.

Tryed to uninstall the game and install it again using Curerom. Repeated the procedures. Nothing.

Conclusion - it's some other kind of protection.
