unknown protection

Hi guys,
I tried CloneyXXL (latest version) with "Port Royale"
by ascaron - but it couldn't detect any protection.
But there obviously *is* one.
(a 1:1 copy with clonecd4 doesn't work)

By starting the game a tiny window pops up
and says something like: "verifying original cd"

Does someone know what kind of protection this is?


bye,
Ju

I don't know it exactly, but I have read that is has a new version of vob Protect CD. I don't know, if that is true, cos I don't have the game myself.

No way this time....

Right now, there is no way - that's why, there is no crack even available this time. (Guess, some guys r working hard with it)

At all some good signs for a new protection sheme (like a new product from VOB maybe).

There is only one obviosly way, to threat the protection, by copying the demo from the CD to HD during CD-checking. It seems, that the CD is to busy then, to work correctly with the protected exe and sometimes the game starts with a usual (cloned) CD.
