[zandi]

you just have to copy it with Nero and crack it with a gamecopyworld-crack
It works

i know how to do that side of it / but i want to make a working copy / without adding crack /

Go look under black & white copy instruction ( the batch file) its almost the same method.
but note all that that is doing is putting the cracked exe over the original exe in the cab file so when you install the cracked exe is treated as the original.
this is purely cosmetic, if you dont like patching when you install or you want to trick someone into thinking its a perfect copy...

im confused tonyG, games such as Colin Mcrae Rally 2, Black and White and Max Payne has the executable that loads the game stored with a .CAB file. How do i replace the original max payne executable with a cracked version.

IT'S NEALY IMPOSSIBLE THE CAB FILES ARE PROTECTED IN MAX P
SOMETHING NEVER DONE BEFORE...

Sorry XTC112, what a load of crap!

Hey BOT-CK

Do you have any idea how i can replace the original executable with the cracked version stored within the .CAB file on disc.

I would very much appreciate it.

Thanks in advance to all those who help me.

i burned a perfect 1:1 copy of max payne using clonecd 2.8.3.1 and a phillps 8x4x32 burner.
