C&C: The first Decade crack search

[robo989]

Hope I didn't cause any offense - none intended and sorry for appearing arrogant if I did

I guess what I'm saying is, if you've got the disc space then its prolly best to make a full image of it as opposed to cracking each exe file, as there does seem like its not quite 100%.

Just my personal thoughts - I'm sorry should have said as such and not gone on a rant

No problem robo, I understand what you say about the cracks.

It appears all EA have done is just wrap those EXE's that had Safedisc originally in the latest Safedisc version and maybe remove some CD checks too. A mini or full image would also be a good way of testing in case someone does get problems. You could then just mount the mini/full image, replace the cracks with the original files and test to see if you get the same problems as with the cracks, then you would know if it's a crack problem.

kosmig highlighted an important fact about so called XP comaptibility, way to go EA

np robo..

As for the little create full image thingie... I have tried but it didn't work for me.
Tiberian Sun, Generals, Zero Hour and Yuri's revenge asks me to insert DVD with the image mounted, DT 4.03 and no emulation and no blockers.

Generals and Zero Hour starts with all emu on plus SD4Hide! but starting them takes forever.

check this thread to see whats been tested more than whats in this thread. Of course some people will be 100% able to play the game with just an image but I am not. Therefore the cracksearch begun...

New cracks for First Decade:

Also uploaded to GCW!

These are the 'real deal'. The only problem is Yuris Revenge still asks for the CD, so you can either keep the DVD inserted or use the cracked gamemd.exe from the crack pack I sent to GCW!

what is different to the other pack?

They cracked all the Safedisc files on the original DVD, not collected cracked files from the CD versions like I did
