Thumbs up 100% Working!

Hi Dudes!

Listen:

Ive done a Image from my Original DVD with latest Alcohol 120%

Then Ive downloaded a perfect .mds (for DPM) from copybase.ch for the EURO Version ... think there should be the US Version also.

So I was able to play the Game with DT4 (with DVD unplugged)! Good but not great...

But now Ive burned the Game and loaded it with my USB-DVD-Drive (with DVD(IDE) unplugged) ... AND IT WORKS ... its like i have my original dvd in the drive!

Hope it works 4 ya! I think you must have a absolut perfect image ... so better make one by yourself with your original dvd and use a clean .mds!

Erm by the way, please sorry my bad english (is it so bad??) ... german boy

The same with GT Legends!!

-----
UPDATE:
YOU HAVE TO START IT FROM PrinceOfPersia.exe NOT FROM THE CD MENU... I DONT KNOW Y BUT ONLY SO IT WORKS!!!

Question

Hi there... What I always don't really understand when StarForce is mentioned:

Ok... so there probably is no good way of getting past the protection driver itself, but the executable for the protected game has to contact the diver first, doesn't it?

So why not beat the protection there by making a no-dvd-cracked version of pop3.exe that just bypasses the driver?

Another way could maybe be a faked protection driver that games recognize as StarForce but that just does nothing but saying "ok" when asked. Has that been tried?

I mean... hey common I've always been the greatest defender of the theory that any protection made up by men can also be bypassed by men. You don't want to prove me wrong, do you?

A good protection makes use of the data read from the copy protected area of the media. (E.g. if I made a copy protection for an expensive CAD software, I would build a cheap dongle that computes the sinus function - or whatever else - instead of software. Crack that!) If you replace the original driver with a fake one, you'll lose this data so that game will crash.

You don't install the game from an image; if you don't have the original CD/DVD (with you), you're not eligible for help on this forum. Read the forum rules!

Try everything listed in the FAQ. If it doesn't work, you'll have to use your original CD/DVD. (Or ask the publisher about alternative methods but I'm sure they won't be very helpful...)

I see absolutely no reason you wouldn't be able to play with the original disc.

And you can remove the CD/DVD drive from a laptop. I think there's usually a switch somewhere on the side or bottom near (or possibly on?) the drive and it'll just pop out.

Lightbulb

Who needs an intern Drive???

I have my selfmade USB DVD-DL-Burner and its perfect!
Silent, fast and no problems! Best solution in my eyes!
And if you want an intern drive then connect it via USB also (USB Cable trough the case and in the usb port)

Such a adapter cost around 10€ (Ebay etc.) or you buy a extern 5.11" case (around 20-40€)
