1:1 copies of new copyprotection impossible?

[krijtgat]

hello,
I read in a magazine (Chip) that it is impossible to make a 1:1 copy of a SD 2.80 game. Is that the truth,,

Alcohol 120% kicks SD 2.80.xx's ass..nuff said

[podunkviller]

it is impossible. emulation MUST be used.

[krijtgat]

I made a copy of UT2003 (with blindwrite) and it works fine (without crack or emulation)!.....on my computer, now i'm gonna test it on a friends comp.

[podunkviller]

you may want to use a safedisc 2.80 game if you are going to see if you can back up 2.80.

Not if you believe the people on these forums :-)

At least one person claims so far to have used alcohol 120 to create a perfect 1:1 backup of C&C Generals that works in his non CDRW drive, even with emulation turned off, and ignore media type turned off...
and C&C Generals **IS** Safedisc2 2.80.xx
at least the one I have is :-)

safedisc 2.8 done dusted with alcohol lite-on 52X and again with Lite-on 48X no emulation no crack just plain sailing

[podunkviller]

the question is whether a 1:1 copy can be made. the answer is no. the disc may work, but its not 1:1. its not close.

I have tried to make a copy of C&C generals with clone cd. I garuntee you it wont work with clone cd. I gotta try alchohol 120 and get back to you.


p.s. the copy seems to perfect but the game wont run from it and neither does setup.

Burning C&C generals didnt work with alcohol 120 either. Do I need emulation?

[ThaShadow]

Safedisc 2.8 protected games can be copied perfecly with Alcohol 120% aslong as ur burner supports it. My Lite-On 48x has made atleast 5 perfect copies of SD 2.8 protected games. A couple that spring to mind are C & C Generals and Age of Mythology.

I think it didnt work cause my burner doesnt support Efm. Can u recommend a burner that does. Thanx

[podunkviller]

all burners support efm

Check the list of burners at the elby site - www.elby.ch
You will be looking for two sheep in the EFM column that will signify perfect EFM coding. One sheep will signify almost perfect (Safedisk 2.4 and below).
