I think it's time to remove that crack/link of GCW. hope Empire will do so.

Yes I did notice two folders in my docs, one saying demo, I tried swapping files over, now I have messed it up, I would need restart game over, I aint bothered, I can wait for new patch to let us save more as I see on the games official forums peeps are compalining about way game saves.

So are you telling me this crack was for a demo, dont make much sense to me.

[schim]

I found out the following:

Problem:

- install game
- apply patch 1.1
- nodvd cracks dont work stable - skip them
- mount either mini-image or "real" image with DT403 (http://www.daemon-tools.cc)
- start game with newest securom-loader (get it from here )
- getting "Emulation Software detected (or something like that?)

Solution (for me):
- start the old hitmanbloodmoney.exe (save or rename it before applying the patch 1.1) via the Securom loader - even if it may crash - don´t bother
- now retry starting the new exe from patch 1.1 with securom loader
- it should work

It seems that you have to repeat this steps every time after a windows restart. If your just hibernate your PC you don´t have a problem here.

happy killing,

Doesn't work for me, there must me new securom code in the updated exe...

[Bravo]

Here is the way i did it:

-Patch to 1.1
-Open DT4.03 and turn off all emulation and mount game
-use x200x-hbm mini-image if you do not want to make a copy of your game
-Run Pr0t.St0p v1.0 and hide drives
-Run ASR and select hitmanbloodmoney.exe
-Play the game

Just make sure to restore your drives with Pr0t.St0p when you are done.

You said "Run ASR and select hitmanbloodmoney.exe" what is ASR? is that Securom Loader 1.2? Please help because I am trying to run hitman blood money for last 2 weeks. I could run without the 1.1 patch though, but when I quit the game it just freezes and I have to restart my computer every time. I was hoping that 1.1 patch might fix this problem.

I can run the game with reloaded no cd fixed exe with patch 1.1 but when I quit the game it freezes. So I am now trying to use mini image with patch 1.1. Does anyone have solution for this. I can run game smoothly but when I quit game it freezes. My PC is P-4 3.0 Ghz, Ram 1.0 GB, Graphics card 6800GS with forceware beta driver 91.28. Audigy SB with the last driver release from creative.

I have run every game on my PC smoothly, but facing lots of problem with this blood money

This worked for me:

-Install game
-Update to 1.1
-Use DT 4.03, no emulation, use either game image or mini image
-Copy the original "hitmanbloodmoney.exe" from the game DVD/game image and replace it with the one in your game folder on your computer
-Start the game using the latest securom-loader

[Bravo]

ASR is Securom Loader 1.2

You need to make sure though that you do not have alcohol 120 or any other emulation software running. In my case i had to fully uninstall alcohol 120 for it to work, but i barely used that software anyways.

@temp
You're mixing things up Here some clearing words

[temp]

Im not, its taken directly from NERO, I suggest you go and learn whats a DVD Writer can or cant do (depending on model) inc writing to DVD media in RAW modes.

I think my input was damn site more info that the 2 slaggers, 1 of them being you.

You want to argue it, take it up with Pioneer, Nero and Alcohol.

BTW, that thread is as full of n00b peeps as this one, the dvd writer can write CD/CDRW sure but the RAW mode isnt just for CD's, I have backed up games using Alcohol and its uses RAW mode, cause you drop down menu and choose your method and YES the games were DVD-ROM and I was using DVD R or DVD RW media.

End of story is that guy was correct, you 2 slagged him and werw wrong, now Im off to test brand new build of alcohol copying my game from DVD ROM to DVD R in RAW mode

[TippeX]

i never slagged him at all, so get your facts straight, i simply questioned what he said...


secondly, sort out your attitude

I've used one of his phrases but i'm not Spath (btw in contrast to me a respected expert regarding optical media)

- All the modes listed by you/Nero are CD write modes
- even if there was a DVD RAW mode this wouldn't help with Securom or Starforce as they use special physical characteristics and not data that can't be written. Tages "only" uses twin sectors with different content -> no need for RAW mode, too. Maybe with Safedisc one may benefit of a RAW mode (hush... we'll soon see emulated copies of Safedisc DVD's, can't tell more for the moment )

All copies of DVD titles are emulated ones (if emulation is needed), e.g. Alcohols RMPS emulates correct delays between checked sectors, or duration of reading sector(s)

P.S. I'd love to see an image of Alcohol's drop down menu for DVD write method
