Lightbulb Dear Proofreader

To copy disc #one use Alcohol, and use a cd-recorder that is known to write using correct EFM encoding. This can be checked at clonecd's website. make sure the burner you are using has a two sheep rating. If it does not order a LiteOn from www.newegg.com . Check the LiteOn cd-recorder before ordering as well. Then fire up Alcohol and select skip reading errors, Fast skip Error Blocks, and read sub channel data. This worked for me. I have no reason for selecting those check boxes except that it worked. Copy the second cd with ANYTHING nothing should fail. Good luck and I am out for the night in 60

Just a note to people having trouble copying disk 2. It REQUIRES a 700MB CDR to write to. 650MB CDR's aren't gonna work. I think it needs something like 671MB to write the CD.

THAT is probably why disk 2 ain't workin' for some of ya.

What I tend to do with my originals is this:

Install game, update, install NoCD fix, put originals away for safe-keeping. I tend not to worry about copying the game.

BUT.

If you try to copy the game and it won't play, BUT DID let you install it, you're fine, pop in the NoCD fix and the game will work from the copies because it is NoCD fixed now and doesn't check the protection anymore. Hence, a BACKUP copy of the game!

Hope this clears up this silly discussion already .

... and the other experts,

I have been using nocds for years sucessfully but really never made copies of the cds.

I just purchased C & C Generals today and would like to back it up. Seeing I paid the full $50.00 usa for it I would like to protect it...

-->more one<--

I have a Lighton LTR - 40125s burner.
Check out www.blindwrite.com that's is a good tool for 1:1 backup.
I don't know if CloneCD have change the homepage adress, but last they had is www.elby.de and it don't work lately.

One thing Special Agent can do, is dumpt the orignal CD to harddrive, and mount the image in to a emulator. Virtual CD-ROM, and emulate SafeDisc. U don't need the CD, don't need crack. And U don't stratch the original CD:s.!

To locchamp:
No-cd fix mean that U don't need a CD to play the game.
ALWAYS do a backup the file U might writing over.
no-cd fix can bee looking in 2 ways.
One is the .exe (and the attached files) is zipped or rar.
Two is they have zipped/rar the file that do the no-cd crack. Very easy to install. But remember to always do a backup of the attched files. Read more in the nfo that's usaly includes in the no-cd fixed file.
If U want to know more read about it, where U downloaded the file.
How to find place to download the file. Read it in the top of this forum. They have listed several of places.

@locchamp Use the Temp Directory method. Either read this thread, search the forums using the words 'Temp Directory' or go over to the Newbie Hints at Gamecopyworld.

U didn't ask for it. U ask what no-cd fix mean. And I gave U the aswer.

If U want to know how to make backup's and more on. Use the search button. Read FAQ by Vluka (I the name is correct). Or read closly this topics above *pointing*.

And speaking to nothing. Who is the new mod? Is it the old one or?
Because the original mod has replie or just lock. Or is it an old one who has been gone for a while? just wondering

Download the patch from the official game site - it's the 1.02 patch, it should be around, or on their ftp.

Then continue with the cracking instructions (use deviance 1.0 generals.exe and the gimpsrus 1.02 game.dat)
