My turn! Help me please, what im doing wrong ??

1. Ive disabled all the ide cables, ive got only a SCSI and USB hard drivers
2. Ive used the StarForce removal tool
3. Ive installed the game (4,18GB mdf) at the Usb 2.0 hard driver - i couldn't install the game with the LeatherFace mds couse ive got an error at the end of the installation - something with readme.txt - so ive instaledl it with the mds file that comed with mdf.
4. Reebot
5. Ive install the sfcure -> with exe file
6. Reebot
7. Ive replaced the .mds file to the LeatherFace one.
8. Ive used SF nightmare, first disabled node, then cd
9. Ive ran !setup.bat, all seems to work fine
10. Ive started the game, used the 2Q4PL key.. and..

It says that the DVD might be broken bla bla bla.. or the cdkey is wrong. It checked the dvd pretty quick, 5 seconds, not as long as at the other old mds files. What did i wrong ? Any hint ?

And ive got question -> did anyone mannaged to start the game from the 4,18GB mdf file, as mine ?

Please help me, i'm sitting here over 4 hours, and it still doesnt work. Im tired :-/

p>s sorry for my english, it's not very well Smile

Ehh.. ive tried everything..

I think, that the people with the 4,18 GB .mdf file will be not able to start this game, and im one of them. The reason i think: ppl with 4.18 GB mdf can't install the game with (example) LeatherFace mds couse they've got an error at the end of setup. So they must install the game with the mds, which is not working with the cdkey or mdf file ? (loooong checks, over 5 min, and then it says that the cd key is wrong). And the replacement of mds file to LeatherFace mds after the installation just do nothing - the game wants reebot (although the game was already reeboted, but with the other mds), and after that it still say that cdkey is wrong or the disc might be broken - only the check is very, very fast - from 5 minutes (old mds) to 5 seconds (leatherface.mds).

I cant download new mdf, couse my i-connection is soo bad...

However.. do you agree that SCCT will work only with good .mdf files (example: 4.15GB) ???

IF SOMEONE CAN PLAY OR PLAY'S THE SCCT FROM THE 4.18 GB MDF FILE - PLEASE SHARE WITH US HOW TO DO THAT !!!

Ok add me to the i 'cant get this fucking thing to work' file.

I get right up to the part where it takes like 5 min's checking the disc, but then it says invalid cd key check to make sure i entered it right blah blah.

I ve used 3 different keys trying each 4-5 times with no luck.

I was using snake with the 38kb .mds from that copy.ch place mounted in daemon tools, had amd_64 sfcure running correctly and sfn did its job by hiding all my drives correctly too, it just wont authenticate any on the keys. This whole fucking process seems hit or miss for people, 50% get it working, 50% cant. Sad really. Rolling Eyes

A-looser....exaclty the same here, I've got the 4.18GB .mdf. It seems that nothing can get it to work. All I can say is that this is not a proper release, it's a US copy made by some guy, and it seems it won't work with an european .mds (tried different .mds from copybase.ch). I think we'll have to wait for a proper release, or the completly rebuild .exe, which would be much better having, since there would be no SF drivers that come with it. I don't think we have too much to wait, we've waited 6 months, I think I can do another one. The SF's end is coming, and is coming pretty quick from what I've read.

OK...
To remind:
I use A2400XP, 512DDR, GFFX5200, nForce2 mobo, Xp SP2
I've got some dvd release, 4,18 BG mdf.
I've installed Service Pack 2, installed gamesfcure, run the game to install sf drivers and restart.
Then I've tried to run the game for many ways... Unsuccesfull...
Always the same shit about key does not correspond...
I used 2Q4PL... key
Recently I got MiRROR Tracmania Sunrise release.
I've instaled and run sfn: I've disabled CH2 (where's my dvdrw is connected), cd, node.
Then I run sfcure service (succesfull of course)
I run the game and... it works! And then it seems so easy.
In my everyday work witch computer I uses Win2003 Server, I've installed Xp Sp2 on second hdd, and when I want to play I just run xp and:
-mount image
-sfn: disable ch2, disable cd, disable node
-run sfcure
-run sfcure
And it works...
Still no success with scct.
Then I got scct snke release today (4,14GB, probably mistake by my sys, should be 4,15Gb I think)
I run Trackmania first to check is everything ok. Of course successfull Laughing
Then I mounted scct snake image, run the game, and... try to guess...
IT WORKS!!!! IT REALLY WORKS!!!! F*CK YOU STAFORCE!!!! Very Happy
So for everybody who has 4,18 rls like me, get better, I can recommend snake one.
If somebody don't believe, I can record all process later.
Cheers @gilyos, whe promised eachother to inform about success with scct, good luck!
Cya! I'm going to play Very Happy

PS. Is snake rls european version? Because if yes, I could install full polish localization with dubbing...

For what I know, snake's release is the European one, and the 4.18GB one is the US one. Snake's release is recognized to have the best DPM information yet. Nothing seems to get the 4.18GB one working, since almost all available .mds files are for the european version and swapping the original .mds with another one doesn't get you anywhere, nor installing, nor playing.

has anyone tried mounting the SC:CT image in daemon tools v3.47 and then running Secure rom 7 stop and SFcure? will it work or what about mounting it in daemon tools v3.47 then use starforce nightmare, and run sfcure will that work so basically instead of alochol 120% use daemon tools?

or is it best to wait for daemon tools 4, will daemon tools 4 be able to mount those games that usually only work with alochol 120%?

SR7_stop would have no effect on the game dude...it uses a complete different copy protection
SR7_Stop = Securom 7
SFcure = Starforce

and some ppl have got the game to work using SFcure, daemon/alcohol, sfn/physcially disabling the drive - i guess it depends on ur drive....play around with it, u might get it to work...but it has to be mounted as u cant burn Starforce DVDs yet - or with rare success

And i find that if alcohol works for mounting a game, Daemon works too. Daemon is always the best choice as it requires less memory and its very simple.
where as alcohol is a bigger app and uses more memory which causes game slowdowns.
ALWAYS try to use Daemon.

the latest alcohol build is 1.9.5 build 3105

and if ur using alcohol in conjuction with SFcure, dont enable anything in alcohol...but try daemon first along with sfcure and sfn

thanks for your reply, and great help

I will go a little off topic now, only because you mentioned that starforce games can't be burnt, do you know if you can burn secure rom 7 games, like fear. I really don't like mounting the fear image everytime i want to play the game, my hard disk is nearly full. Can i burn the game, infact at the start i messed up the installation as i burnt the fear mdf image in dvd decrypter and the game installed fine off the disc but never worked. I was thinking if secure rom 7 games can't be burned then can i burn the fear mdf image as a data disc and then mount the image through daemon tools but the mounting will come off the DVD disc in the dvd rom drive? i hope you understand

any help much appreciated

many thanks
