I actually played Ricky Ponting Cricket for hours with no disc the other day so it must only work on start up, when I'd actually realised the disc was in the cover I shut down the game and tried to restart it, it never ran of course without the disc in but once it was going in game I took the disc out again and it worked fine again until restart.
What a shame though, when I found out it was Starforce I gave it to my nephew.

Actually quite a few Starforce protected games have been cracked by the more able teams. Just refer to NFOrce and check the nfo's for these games: Sniper Elite (c) Ubisoft by RELOADED, Brothers in Arms: Earned In Blood (c) Ubisoft by RELOADED and Soldiers: Heroes of World War 2 (c) Codemasters by RELOADED. So yeah, Starforce has been cracked by the actual cracking groups.

Seems it's only one group: RELOADED.

[xImmortalx]

I doubt the other serious groups (such as DEViANCE) are far behind RLD. It's these clone groups that are practically guaranteed to never put out an actual crack.

Flamming Cliffs LOMAC 1.1 starforce protection has not been cracked...

[xImmortalx]

Neither have a million other SF games. Just because a group has the knowledge and ability to crack StarForce doesn't mean they have the time, resources or willingness.

[maciozo]

All latest cracks for starforce are total b/s. groups like DIE surely can't crack it and probably RELOADED also. you can curse me for such profanity but let's face the truth - why they didn't cracked Cossacks II if it uses SF3.4 but they dealt with the newest 3.6 version encountered in "BIA - Earned in blood" game or an earlier 3.5 in 'Sniper Elite"? Most strange was their release of fix for "Soldiers - Heroes of WWII" year after the store date. IMHO they have access to unprotected files which come for example from different countries releases (in Poland some games are have different protections or even don't have any).
the same thing was happening with my Shade v1.2 crack - it was protected with a bit earlier mutation of SF3.4 - i didn't cracked it but i just used files from the magazine release of the game which was patched already to 1.2.
Summarizng - we cannot speak of real SF3 cracking today since it has not broken yet. The happy news is that it was cloned (a group called MiRROR created almost ideal CD clone of SF3 protected games, but they still have problems copying the DVDs) and a more succesful workaround was made (no USB or DVD+RW glitch). It' just a matter of time now....

The question is how do you know Mirror make ideal clones?

[Morglum007]

Just a tip: Mirror didnt cloned such games. This have been discussed over cdfreaks a lot. There is just A METHOD ( and only one) and mirror have nothing to do with it.

[DABhand]

Yep..

Anyone can make a full clone, blindwrite, alcohol image. All it takes is eyes and the aptitude to read lol

[Morglum007]

Nop Dab, i dont mean a clone in the way a normal soft will do, i mean a clone with twins inside so once burned will launch without emulatoin as original.
That whats mirror members learnt, and tried to use to share in p2p. Luckyly, it is a CD/burner dependant and most people doesnt succeed once burnt.

Just it.

TOCA Race Driver 2 released today by RELOADED with a proper crack. And it has Starforce 3.3. I think we can expect more and more proper cracked Starforce releases by RELOADED in the next few months. Crow taste good?

you can read that on nforce. games that were released as cd versions ARE nearly perfect clones (they would be nuked either way). as it is stated in nfo the copies can be run in a cd/dvd reader and recognised as the real cd without using sf nightmare or sfcure.

[kosmiq]

MiRRoR uses a way to clone developed at cdfreaks forums. They have done nothing by themselves. Their releases with Starforce (most of them) uses SFCure wich they have not made either so they are mostly scene-wh*ring "points".

Reloaded must be cracking games, come on there is no way all Reloaded cracked games are because of leaked files that are unprotected.
The BiA:EiB release is not using the old BiA crack but is cracked (hex-edit and you will see remains of starforce execute codes).

Real respect goes to crackers, not cloners!

Ill take this opportunity to laugh at TNT.
