Runaway 2

[BarryB]

I looked at reloadeds English crack and think if you change bytes at offset 0x00015CC0 in the file from 81 EC 08 02 to 33 C0 40 C3 it may make it NoDVD, It might crash it too but it looked about the right place for the DVD check

Can't test as the UK version is not released till the middle of next month, I think Canada and Australia have English versions in stores now, lucky bastards

Ok, today I got this game started!!! This is for the german users:
To get the game started:

1. Download an unpack the fixed image from gamecopyworld.
2. Now start the game using Daemon Tools 4.08 (you need two Virtual Drives) and Yasu 1.04.
3. When you're asked for the "Runaway 2 DVD", press the "Windows-Key" (next to the "Alt" Key. Now the game should be minimized to the tray.
4. Now its time to load the image from which you installed "Runaway 2" into the other Virtual Drive. (Alternatively you can put your Backup-DVD into a drive.)
5. Now you click on "Runaway 2" in your taskbar to maximize it again.

Now the game loads and you can play the game!!!! Have fun!!!!!!!

P.S.: It is exactly what poseden said - the german game checks some files or one file (I don't know) on the games dvd. When you mount the "Installer Image" after the game has started (as described above) the game will continue!

No need to Alt+Tab when using two virtual drives, first vdrive: Bender image, second: Poseden

P.S.: ... and no need to have two drives/images when using full image

@Poseden
Your 44(+10) sectors-image doesn't pass Securom check (though mds is the same), "only" ingame check.
What are they looking for

I dont know！i dont have german version, so i dont know the german version how to work.
If must mount 2 images, then not need my maxi-image, only a "45 sectors mini-image" is ok.

Yes, a "45 sector MINI" does pass ingame check

Just to sort that out as a reason why your MAXI doesn't pass Securom check: The 45 sectors are identical in german and UK version

I would really appreciate it if anyone would give me a link to an English version mini/maxi image, because i didnt manage to find one.

(i understand that poseden's and bended's are for the German version)

thx in advance,
