Gta 3
Just so as you all know, i still havent figured out how to make an exact copy of GTA3, im able to copy it, but i have to use the crack to use it, what i wanted to do was copy it and change the Data2.cab file so that when it installed it would automatically have the crack, call me lazy but i thought it would be interesting to work it out...
I was able to change the original GTA3.exe file with the fixed version in the Data2.cab although when i wrote the new CD it would not install. Has anyone got anymore suggestions as to how to make it install. I was told to de-compile the Data1.Hdr file with InstallSheild De-Compiler, but the person who told me to use it, didnt know how to use it, im afraid i wasnt able to figure it out either. Does anyone here know how to use it, if so tell me or give me another solution to my problem... Later Silence...

No ive no problem with that playing it,
i wanted to make a copy that i wouldnt have to use the crack on because it would automatically install the crack with the rest of the game. the GTA3.exe file is inside the Data2.cab file on the install disk, ive changed it with a fixed version exe but now it wont install to my computer... any suggestions? i was told that i6comp would automatically change the data1.hdr file so it should work in theory, but it doesnt... Silence...

@ Vetch_404
yea there is program called i6comp.exe, if you go back a few forum pages and look for my posts, it will be under (GTA3.exe Data2.cab) and there is links in there for the file somewhere and notes on how to use it if you read it all. when using the file, it is not enough to double click it, it will just vanish from the screen, you have to open command prompt and open it from that. e.g. if you place it in your c:\ directory you type this: c:\i6comp.exe that willopen the program to view the file inside the data2.cab you have to know where it is located e.g. c:\i6comp.exe l: [Location of data2.cab] *.* that should let you see everything inside the cab, theres quite a bit so if you use the Pause/Break key at the top of the keyboard to stop and view the files. or if you know the name or the file your looking for i.e. gta3.exe type this c:\i6comp.exe l: [Location of data2.cab] gta3.exe Silence...

#1. i dont know how to work clone cd, ive tried it before but it would write to a cd, it just burned the images to my hard drive.
#2. i know how to change the files inside the .cab file but after writing the c:\temp\ folder to cd it will not install, it tells me there is a file missing or it cant read a file, i think its a .bmp file. this is what i dont understand, is there something in the original gta3.exe file that is connected to this file which seems to be missing. id just like to thank everyone whos been trying there best to help out in this little enigma of ours... plz anyone with answers please post here Silence...
