Hi, I'm a new member of this forum and I'm sorry if I'll say something that's not right

I've tried the mini-image of game copy world, but I always receive the error of the activation code which isn't the same of the disc code. Is there a difference between the serial of the europe version and english one? The mini-image of game copy works only with a specific version of the game?

Thx.

Hi to everybody

Mini Image posted on GCW is the same I created few days ago posted via P.M. to few users on this forum.

It doesn't work mounted with Alcohol or Daemon Tools, and any trick for inhibit starforce protection suddenly fails.
The only way for playing is to use the .MDS file included in the mini-image zip file (.MDS is the DPM or RMPS file) and the .MDF of the game (4.15 Gb), and burning it with Alcohol (latest version) enabling RMPS writing at 1x on any dvd media, and then putting copied dvd into any DVD-ROM SCSI or USB2.0 (I suggest to use any ide to usb 2.0 converter or external box).

I hope this could solve any issue.

Anyway, you see the common sense here

yeah .. it's sad that law and common sense don't always agree

[Melthroak]

Totally on your side for that.
Plus, it's fun to see how laws tend to be contradictive of other laws.
Ommpf, sorry for that syntax, my native language IS french after all! (And no I'm not from France, just to avoid some kind of debate on this!)

It's nice to have some additionnal info on the license regulations though.
One last thing, I read the license agreement, and nowhere it says I only have the right to install it on only one computer. So we have to know by definition that you're allowed just one licensed.

With all those contracts, there should be a law course included with high school! Would make it so much easier on the brain

Hi italian friend

I've tried to burn the mini-image .MDS together the mini-image .MDF at 2,4 write speed with rmps option, but it doesn't work. How can I burn the mini-image .MDS together the image .MDF of the game?

Hi

[Niko76]

You must only use .MDS from the mini image file (MDS size is 32 kb) with the MDF image (4.15 Gb). You should obtain 2 files named SCCT:

SCCT.MDS (32 kbytes)
SCCT.MDF (4.15 Gbytes)

Then, burn image from Alcohol's menu and select RMPS option before burning.

For playing, disable any cd/dvd ide peripherals and use a DVD-ROM SCSI or USB2.0 (with an external box or a ide to usb2.0 converter).

I have a mini-image file .mds of 38kB Why?

EDIT1: from property of the mds file --> 38222 bytes

EDIT2: I burned and I have a dvd with dummy files...Boh..

Hello,

i tried to crack the game yesterday with this "mini-image" from GCW ... it doesn't work.

Then i read the posts in this thread any got some solutions.
In every solution i have to put the burned image into a USB 2.0 drive, but i still havn't one and i won't buy me one.
so my Question: Does it work with a simple DVD-Rom drive or a DVD-Writer?

I have to whole program tools and i can take the drives off with SF Nightmare!!!

[solidus1337]

Just making some things clear...

Damn, this is only the first day I'm following the SCCT Starforce problems, and this must be the 69th time someone askes if there currently is a no-dvd, mini-images or SF Nightmare solution.

Well there isn't!!!!

The only solution at this point is running the game from an external USB 2.0 HD, SCSI HD or an IDE to USB2.0 adapter (There only about 12$/10€, buying a new game cause your original got broken costs much more)

If someone finds a WORKING solution apart from these, feel free to share. All the others, stop asking about it.

Thanks in advance

Sorry for double post...

On the megagames forum somebody claims to be working on a patched exe (don't think I believe it, but I just wanted to share...)

Wath about USB 1 ?

[solidus1337]

I guess theoretically USB 1.0/1.1 will work too...

If splinter cell doesn't read much from the dvd, it will actually be playable, but you must remind USB1 is very, very slow compared to USB2.

I don't know if chaos theory uses the dvd a lot, if it does, I'm afraid it will be unplayable with USB1.
