Silent Hunter III

[svdkloes]

No problem Guys...I cracked it....I made a mini-dvd image that works for all versions of the game...But read the readme file very closely before doing anything...

You can get the crack here:

Thanks will try it when i get home in a couple of days

[hostrup]

doesnt work here.

[luke97]

Does not work.

1. I reinstalled the game.

2. Patched to 1.2 (strange, the USA 1.2 patch give an error on a german .txt file, so I installed European DVD patch, and worked. I thought that I had the USA version..).

3. I Did exactly what reads on the .txt file.

4. Nothing. Tried everything. This "backdoor" does not open.

Any idea?

[ace11]

did exactly as instcucted .
not working .

And thank you for the possibility of hushing away a person who tried to help. No one forced you to try anything. Too bad that it doesn't work, but at least you could've shown some support to his effort.

I am very grateful for your effords, svdkloes.
Please, keep trying to make it work.

How do you tested this method? Did you used 1.1 and 1.2? What is your version of the game? EU or USA? Did you installed the game from scratch or you already had activated one time the game?
More info please.

And thank you for world peace, hippy. Its simple dude either u make a working crack or not. But dont post bs like this works for all versions.

Okay! Alright!!

Now there is some progress right there!!

The way your post reflects itself, svdkloes, seems that this backdoor actually works for you!!

However, as it has been tested by almost everyone here, you are the only lucky person!

You call it "A Backdoor to StarForce". I may call it a glitch that you've exploited!

Because if it's a backdoor then I am recommending your name for the next Nobel Prize...

The registry file creates a lot of “HardwareProfile” entries. I am trying to go through them but that may take a lot of time. Seems like you are the only one with the upper edge here.

Also, its only "HKEY_CURRENT_". Is there other trees like "HKEY_LOCAL_" ?

Are you using Daemon or Alcohol? Their version #?

Do you have a writer(s)? How many physical CD/DVD drives?

Did you used SFNightmare and/or StarFu*ked? Did you disable your Drives?

I followed the instructions carefully and I’ve noticed something.

Firstly, no matter I hold Ctrl or not, if there is no MiniImage (Your MiniImage) mounted; there won't be an "Enter new CDKey" dialog. It will always show an "Error, Retry" dialog. I must mount your image and then and only then, holding Ctrl does its trick!

Secondly, I hade tried this on EUR v1.0 (No mod of any sort)

I have the patch file ready at hand but I won't apply to save myself from a re-install

Thanks a lot for your effort and you just might do this thing... Okay, so you just might not but I am still recommending you for that Nobel Prize!


Zillion & BITEME, the last Silent Hunter III thread was closed because people started to talk off-topic. I don't want that to happen again so please no more saying Thanks or complaining about wasting time.

Zillion, no offense but there was an attitude error in you recent post(s). Star Force is giving people nightmares and if someone thinks he/she is close to something... well it’s a hell-lot better then no news at all.

None of us can decide weather something is BS or not. We are all sick and tired of installing and re-installing the game over and over without luck.

Someone cracked v1.0 did he/she not?

The image was a small ~50KB dl and mounting it takes 2 seconds + 10 seconds for reading the read-me file and that’s it! How much time could it have wasted? Now, you must have had patched the game first didn’t you? Bad mistake...

From what I know StarForce was updated by patch 1.2. After that it not only checks the presence of the disc but also the file structure of the disc, meaning a mini image with nothing in it is not going to fool it.

And for those that want to start some personal name calling with me, use the messaging system. I'm not going to waste everyone's time reading some crap.

I have seen Mini Images of sizes like 5 MB, but once mounted, they show up as 4+GB DVD Images with all file of correct size (each file is still dummy)!

Would that fool?

are you mentally retarded? if it were mountable with current Alcohol & DaemonTools people would have found a way by now. you are wasting your time because you are 100 steps behind everyone else.

Listen up until you can make your own, shut your face.


We dont need smart arses who think they know the **** when they dont and they only talk **** and not The ****.


At least the guy tried, which you havent done so far only complain about him.


So thank you for wasting my time for reading your senseless posts.
