Scrapland by American McGee

[sole_fish]

Does anyone know where i can locate a NoCD for American McGee's game 'Scrapland' (English) PC CD-rom? I would be very grateful for any help available. Thank you!

There is no 'crack' for this game only a mini image, it does work as a NoCD but you need Daemon Tools and Starf*ck installed to use it!

I'll send it to GCW and you can decide whether to try it or not!

[sole_fish]

Thanks! I'll give it a try. BTW , INCREDIBLE game!

[BarryB]

Yeah! Great game, just trying to do the 3rd (or maybe 4th) set of Crazy Bets: Data tubes left on desk acting as messenger 0 / 4, only need this before I get the Super Crazy Bet

[AmonShire]

where can i find mini image for scrapland,i have tried everything,please help!!!

[BarryB]

The mini image is now on GCW.

Also, I made a mistake! The image came from a 'No Group' release and NOT CXZiSO, sorry guys!

If EMPiRE is reading this better update GCW to remove CXZiSO, don't want to upset them!

is Scrapland even out yet?

[sole_fish]

It is a little hard to find, bu gogamer.com has the best price I've seen on it. Under 30 bucks. They even ship for $1.99 if you don't mind waiting a week or so to get it.

I have tried this process before like 10 times i must be doing something wrong maybe putting something in the wrong place or using the wrong image file because as u know i have the one that installed the game and the mini and i have dameon and starf**k on my system if someone could help a lost soul such as myself and explain in detail how to get this game to run.

You must have Daemon Tools 3-47 and StarFock 0-82 installed and properly configured. You must have launched one time the game and rebooted (installation of the drivers). Then :

01/ Launch StarFock
02/ Choose the protection Starforce63
03/ Patch Black List
04/ Unmount your CD Roms
05/ Close StarFock
06/ Mount the mini-image with Daemon Tools
07/ Launch the game - Play the game - Quit the game
08/ Un-Mount the mini-image with Daemon Tools
09/ Launch StarFock
10/ Choose the protection Starforce63
11/ Mount your CD Roms
12/ UnPatch Black List
13/ Close StarFock

If you want to relaunch the game, close your windows session and begin a new session, then repeat the 13 steps.

You don't have to do that

Set the Preferences of starf*ck to tell it what channel your CD/DVD drives are located on, the mode to use (aggressive works for me) and the path to Daemon Tools, then save that config and starf*ck will remember it.

Next use the Link Generator in starf*ck to make a 1 click link that mounts the image, disables the CD/DVD drives, runs the game (you have to tell it it to use BIN\Scrap.exe ), then when you exit the game it will unmount the image and re-enable your CD/DVD drives. Save the link to your desktop so it's easily run! I leave it set to the default protections mode: 'Starforce 3.4.63.002'

Once you've done that, you only have to keep creating a link for each game you have, then you lauch the game via the link everytime, no messing about patching/disabling/mounting/running/unmounting/enabling

The only other thing to remember is that Daemon Tools has at least 1 drive enabled so Starf*ck can mount the image!

In theory, you are right ... except it doesn't work for me with Scrapland (it works for the other Starfarce protected games).
It's curious : if I do that manually step by step, it works. If I do the same thing with a command line, it doesn't work. I think there are some delays problems, and StarFock is a beta...
