A Question about Starforce

[BulletProofPuppyNL]

Hey all, I have 2 things to say.

1st. I am new here. Yay!

2nd. I downloaded this game, Wildlife Park 2 (lol) , which makes use of the StarForce 3 protection system. In the .nfo there were instructions on how to install and play the game properly:

Install Notes:

   1. Unpack release, and tool.
   2. Copy tool to wherever you have the cd image and run tool.
   3. Look at your blank disc, and select that manufacturer in the tool's 
   dropbox. If you select the wrong manufacturer type, the game will not 
   work.
   4. Click patchme, and wait until it says "Patching done."
   5. A new image will be made called unl-wlp2_patched." Burn this image in 
   newest A120 at 4x speed using the datatype "SECUROM *NEW*" Also, make 
   sure the write method is set to RAW DAO. Make sure that there are no 
   checkmarks next to "Rectify subchannel data" and "Burn rmps to 
   recordable media."
   6. When you hit start, it will say "Image size does NOT match to 
   lead-Out recorded in TOC!
   select : Keep TOC as on source CD , write until end of image file 
   (recommended)
   7. Install the game and play. You can play this clone from all your  
   drives.
     
   Warning 1 - If you get verification failed during load, then your copy
   failed. 
   Warning 2 - Burning to the wrong media type than selected in the tool 
   guarantees failure.
   Warning 3 - Burning the clone with Profile "Securom New 4/5" or with 
   "rectify subchannel data" or "burn rmps to recordable media" guarantees 
   failure.

As you can read in the text, there is a tool included. In the tool you have to select the image, and the type of CD you are using. You can choose between things as PHILIPS 52X , TDK 52X, FUJI 52X etc.. I only have some cd's here, named "LIFETEC 52X", so I tried to write it in the selection field, which worked. After that, the tool created 2 new files, called

UNL-WLP2_patched.mdf

and

UNL-WLP2_patched.mds

. Well anyway, I tried to burn them as told in the instructions, but it didn't work. Tried all possible things with Daemon Tools, too. So I am stuck now.. Does anyone know what I have to do to fix it? Oh man, I am way to impatient for this : P

Thanks, BPP : )

Edit: Oh damnit, I just saw the other subforums. I don't know if this thread belongs in another subforum, if so, mods please move this thread there ^_ ^

I can tell you where this thread belongs. Among the other locked warezthreads. Go buy the game! YES Pay For It.

This forum is NOT about downloaded games. Its about making your own backups of your originals.

READ THE RULES.

You can probably enjoy your little ban too...

Qouted in case you decide to edit your post too...

LOL, another illiterate W4R3Z K1DD1E who can't read simple rules!

Can we have a 'Guest Ban' where random members of this forum get to BAN a W4R3Z K1DD1E

Oh ok I didn't know talking about downloaded games wasn't allowed here.. Well, looks like I'm about to get my first ban. Bye everyone.
Sorry for incovenience btw.
Oh one last thing, what makes you guys think I am a "kiddie" ? I tried to set up my use of language as mature as possible
Oh and by the way, the reason why I was asking this was because I'm with my little nefue (or however you spell it?) now in the other part of the country, and I wanted to download and install it there. I bought the game but left it at my own house.

@BulletProofPuppyNL

I downloaded this game, Wildlife Park 2

That is your problem! You are not setting a very good example to your 'Nephew' (yes that is how you spell it!)

Banned/Closed!
