Rise And Fall: CaW - Starforce 3.7

[Morglum007]

I forgot some important thing for those nForce based mobos.

The next games DO NOT LAUNCH UNDER nForce SYSTEMS:

- Toca race driver 3
- War on terror
- LA rush
- GTI - Racing

Rise and fall, blazing angels and the other DVD SF protected titles DOES WORK in nForce based systems.

So, for this people experiencing problems with its nforce system, i highly encourage to try another "easy" game, like rise and fall. (Tests under a nforce4 based chipset).

btw. "Right media method" doesn't work anymore with Flatout 2 (SF 4.0.09.01); error message ("illegal copy") appears immediately. Looks like the announced ADIP check.

tried the good image on a friends pc without Nforce™ chipset
and it workz out great !!!

sad for me with a Nforce system

Hope a fix will be released soon ?!? any ideas when ?

Because of this method is media and hardware dependant ( as the old Safedisc and two sheep supported drives method) i think there is no fix yet for this problem. The only way is to force Nforce chipset company to release a new BIOS to block SF "intrussion". Until this, nForce systems will be "compromised" under SF.

As far as i know, someone said newer SF 4.0 included the so called ADIP check, to avoid this kind of copy. No problem at all, with a media hider, as in ATIP, or just executing under SCSI/RAID/USB, that overrides this kind of check.

We found at CdSTeam not only 3.7 SF versions are copied with this method. Also Panzers - Phase two is perfectly burnt under a Daxon media disc.

We will keep trying. In the other hand, see ur tries as a verification of our suspects. It is better to know "the truth" to walk in the darkness ^^

Neither media hider (->Emulation detected !) nor my RAID-Controller can cheat the check

Does ur drive support bit setting? U must change the book type when writing disc. Pioneer drives does not support that, but plextor and NEC, for example support it.

Anyway, what RAID controller do u have? SiS? ITE8212?

Brand tools usually works. Plextools for PLex drives for example do the job in Plextor, cause they used crypted access to drive, and SF cannot interfere with.

For other people, a tool must be coded.

Controller: SiI 0649 RAID Controller
Burner: LG GSA 4163B
Media: PHILIPS 041, DAXON D42 (Flatout2 has same check as Rise & Fall & Co)

Burnt with Blindwrite 6 -> Emulation detected (Image)
Burnt with DVD Decrypter -> Illegal copy

A friend of mine tested with SiI 0680RAID: same results

Booktype is set while burning, how could SF affect that ?

Do you think it's possible to edit standard Firmwares of DVD-ROM drives to report DVD-ROM for DVD+R bypassing ADIP ?
