I'm working on it, will post it to the site when it is finished unless someone posts it first

Commander_A1 21-04-2005 02:53

Ya man, ok its a good news to work on the new crack,
good luck and plz inform us when u finsih ,
btw, cant you give us a specific date for the crack release !! :rolleyes:

DarkLeftos 21-04-2005 05:34

Specific date? Are you kidding? Have you ever tried developing anything?

A specific release date can only be given if the job is already done. He said he is working on it, how will he be able to give you a specific date, if he hasn't finished his work yet? I mean (and not want to put bad luck to this) things could arise, problems, anything while developing.

DABhand 21-04-2005 07:22

BTW a bit OT but thats a good motherboard that A7N8X-X :) shame it doesnt have SATA onboard :\

DarkLeftos 21-04-2005 07:40

Thanks... Thing is, it's good value (one of the cheapest around) and does its job. Thing that disappointed me was the lack of Dual Channel support.

However, anyway, after a nice power failure that burnt both MB and CPU, I'm now with a Gigabyte GA-8KNXP and an Intel Celeron D 2.8 GHz. How nice... Fortunately, no harm to the 6800.

Sorry for the OT.

Commander_A1 21-04-2005 09:12

Well DarkLeftos i am not talking to you and i said it in a joky way , and i was just somehow encouraging him........its non of your business !!!!

Be more polite in your posts !!

DarkLeftos 22-04-2005 05:39

I am as polite as I can be, I may be a little weird, but I'm polite.

It's a well known phrase that says "Want something good done? Do it yourself." Since you can't do it yourself, please respect that a person is at least trying, and get off his neck.

From experience, being constantly asked for a release date does NOT help at all.

If it was in a joky way, it was in some "joky" way I didn't understand.

But I'm not here to start a war, I became a member to help. So calm down, and be patient.

Peace.

:rolleyes:

Joe Forster/STA 22-04-2005 06:50

Hey Commander_A1, I didn't see you were joking either. Next time, you might wanna use this smiley: :D instead, that should take care of it... ;)

Joe

Commander_A1 22-04-2005 12:22

well i see you talking in an offensive way in the 1rst post !!
anyway ,we are all members and i am also here to help and share ideas..
lets wait for the crack in PEACE :D

coffin filler 22-04-2005 16:14

Pheww that was a close one hey ? Nearly started a war there. Ohh DarkLeftos you should be more polite in you posts because Commander_A1 said it in a "Joky" way :confused: (i diddnt realise you were being impolite but there you go ;)

and Commander_A1 im not being impolite just "joking" :)

Circastes 22-04-2005 19:54

:(

DarkLeftos 23-04-2005 00:03

:eek:

Oh, are we playing with smilies now?

Am I being impolite? Hey, you coffin_filler, I started a thread with an idea of yours, and you're still complaining? Talking about weird.

God, are we getting off topic.

Let's just wait, dammit.

SirMaverick 03-05-2005 15:00

whoa, we've got some hostility there, we have enough wars going on. ;) :D , on another note, I have been working on the file a little bit after work everyday, and made a little progress, I have been bogged down at work recently. Anywho, as far as a date, I have no clue, I'm going the fastrest I can, best way I've found so far, while your waiting is to use a image file. Thanks guys.

Take all the time you need :D , maybe the price will drop and be cheaper for me to buy than $49 :eek:

doomerdgr8 05-05-2005 07:21

A strange request...
 
Has anyone made an alcohol 120% image of ActOfWar DVD?

An image that is around 5.17 GB in size?

If so, then can someone give me the respective ".MDS" file for this image? Its somewhere between 5 to 9 KB in size...

I just realized that those small ".MDS" files created along with the actuall images (".MDF") are actually important and sould not be deleted...http://www.fileforums.com/images/smilies/tongue.gif

DABhand 05-05-2005 07:55

Err make another image?

tabs20 05-05-2005 09:13

You guys that push hard CRACK me up, pop your disk in and STFU. Or uninstall and go back to the original crack you are using off your downloaded pirate copy.

You trolls are as bad as people who use a remote control for their car sterio while sitting in the driver seat.

Although that guy said a stupid thing before, your "nigger" answer is an even bigger piece of ****. Stop that racist trash, u stupid thing!

kosmiq 06-05-2005 03:19

Ok people be nice to each other.
Don't call each other stupid things, don't blame others for using any pirated software when all you can do is assume that they have any.
Do NOT flame this thread with such useless posts, don't go OT!!!
:mad:

So please, any mod please remove the last 4 posts (including mine that is) and warn that one saying that racist word...

(sorry for 'trying' to be moderating a little here, but I can't stand them... sorry mods/admins you are the best!!! :D )

As I've seen other threads getting closed because of the stupid behavior of people not caring about the content of the thread, I'm kindly requesting that the mods do not close this thread because of the above posts, as SirMaverick is actually a person putting some effort into cracking this game, and is nice enough to let us know of his progress.

Yeah, I think so as well :D

BUT, I gave it one hell of a smacking and it barely created a correct image this time...

Now that image works correctly...

Sadly, the DVD ROM won't work at all...

SirMaverick 07-05-2005 13:56

I'm wondering if we're going through all this just to find a new patch a few days after the crack is released¿¿¿ :confused:

crossmr 07-05-2005 14:18

Has anyone tried making a mini-image just for giggles?

SirMaverick 07-05-2005 19:43

I haven't myself, maybe that would be better at least for now. One question for all of you, what virtual image software do you use? I use daemon tools.
Thanks

crossmr 07-05-2005 23:19

Daemon tools seems the most reliable for using mini-images (when combined with Starforce nightmare). Alcohol seems easiest to make them with (its surprisingly simple). If anyone has a clone or the actual DVD and would care to make one and post it for testing it would be highly appreciated.

I'll do it now

Radar911 08-05-2005 14:59

Does anyone have any tutorials or tips when it comes to making mini-images with alcohol?

And another thing; there is a program called Anti-Blaxx which blocks secuROM7, which might be worth taking a look at if Act Of War uses securom (I currently use this to run Stronghold2 without a cd).

Daemon Tools has securom emulation also. Just right click in the tray icon, and highlight emulation. Alcohol has a image making wizard you can use. I use 1.9.5, and when I open the program at the top left you will see the image making wizard. My image is finished, testing it now.

crossmr 08-05-2005 17:05

Starforce Nightmare also defeats securom7. That is what I use as antiblaxx seemed to give me issues. As far as making a mini image with alcohol 120%:

Start with the original CD or Clone.
Start making the image (use a slow speed, 300k is good) when it hits 2% cancel the image but do NOT delete it.
Voila a working mini-image. if it doesn't work, try going a tad bit longer to see if it helps.

Radar911 09-05-2005 00:56

So I don't need to have any special options enabled in Alcohol?

Anyway, thanks a lot for the help guys, and good luck with your image SirMaverick.

truefranco 10-05-2005 14:12

So no mini image yet ?? :cool:

It depends on the copy protection in question. Generally you need to choose the proper copy protection on the pull down menu. occasionally you need to check a box. If you google it, sometimes you can find the settings you need for that particular copy protection. Otherwise just experiment if it doesn't work right.
