Because thats requires to use a cra*k, i think this is not the place, even having your originals.
I think admins will take that as is, so this forum is to explain and to know about copy protections.
And secondly, respecting CDs to DVDs, yeap, it is always possible, but not necesary easy.
For UT it can be done by almost everyone, but for Far cry, you should know a bit about installers and how to cr*ck them.
In this case uses the windows installer system, so a .msi must be “modified” in order to allow correct installation from DVD without CDs checks. Because is not the place, explanations about are quite “non-apropiate”.
Finally, and this is not about that poll, i think i have found a way to 1:1 backup (without emulation) any SecuROM (and maybe Starforce/ProtectCD) protected title (and perfect working on EVERY reader). To give some clues, Blackcheck’s tool must be updated, the principle is the same, but not in form. We can use the Sta Clara & Codemasters technics found in FADE to success…
This must be confirmed yet, but at least have found some interesting info about that called “physical” sign, that really isn’t! (:P). Will post an article more in detail to be discussed in the next days.
Also, i will speak with R!co, cause i have some job for the Blindwrite’s team. Finally found symetry in SecuROM “key” and a fixing must be done to the BWA engine extractor in order to extract with almost every reader. Now cleaning and smothing a BWA is supported, but not fixing to appropiate one (for CDs or DVDs).
Will wait results…(We can call it something like, i have got a new idea!)xD
Good luck!
