Hi everybody! I’ve a problem with Spellforce 2. I’ve installed the game, and then mounted the mini image, taken from gamecopyworld, with Daemon 4.03, with all the emulation option on. Then I’ve tried to launch the game; the game run, but after appears only an hand, as mouse cursor, on a black screen, and after CTRL+ALT+CANC, I see that there an error text on which is written “An access violation occured and the program must quit”. I think I’ve the European version, althought beetwen the choice of the language there was also U.S. English. What I’ve to do? Please help me!

P.S. Sorry for my bad English!

Please, read the FAQ on how to make mini images work. (You should try without a mini image, too; perhaps, the game wouldn't run on your PC anyway!)

[Kardio]

1: where can I find this faq on this site?
2: I think that the mini image works corretcly, in fact the game runs, after there's a crash with the seguent message "An access violation occurred and the program must quit". What's this?

1. I made an exact copy with Alcohol 120 (see my original post).
2. Then I've downloaded ISODir
3. I opened my mdf-file with the ISOdir and made "Trim File".
4. I wasn't sure if my mds-file is good enough. So I've downloaded this.
5. And now I've mounted my mini-image with Daemon Tools 4.03 (emulation all off or on isn't important).
(Of course the mds and mdf-file must have the same name, so rename it!

i followed your steps but i am not shure what to do with the mds file! is it ok when both the mds and mdf file are on the desktop and i mount the mdf file with daemontool or do they have to be in the spellforce folder?

The location of the mini image doesn't matter.

Hi,

I've tried to do exactly as you described, but it's not working...
I made an exact copy with Alcohol 120 (latest version), and downloaded the .mds from copybase. I have them on the same directory with the exact same name.
Then I trimmed my image file with ISOdir, but I'm not sure if any specific configurations are needed (I used the default options for ISOdir). But which extension should the mini-image file have? .iso or .mdf? If it's .mdf, I can't save it to the same directory as the other .mdf and .mds files, or it will overwrite my exact image...
Anyway, I tried with the same name and placed the mini image on the desktop. Then I tried mounting either the exact image, the mini-image or even both at the same time, but it still doesn't work, I still get the "please insert original disk" message... What am I doing wrong?

My game was already installed from the dvd before I made the .mdf file, do I need to uninstall and install it again from the image?

Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance,

Lelila

P.S. I think we're talking about the same version of the game, mine is the unpatched english version, bought in the UK.

If you have problems with your mini image, download a mini image from gamecopyworld.com
http://m0003.gamecopyworld.com/games.../Fixed%20Image

After you have installed the game from your dvd, place the mini image-files anywhere. Mount them with DT4.03 and it should work.

I think your steps were more complicated than it is necessary

Thanks for the help, indeed it was a lot simpler...
Problem is, I still have to disable my dvd-rom drive in the control panel, I thought you said it wouldn't be necessary. Anyway, it's working, so thanks.

EDIT:
Problem solved.
I found another mini-image online that doesn't require disabling optical drives.
