Yes, as I wrote, rename it to .mdf: .mds and .mdf files come in pairs as Alcohol 120%-style CD/DVD images.

Alcohol gives an error, stating it's an invalid image file!

By the way, after having read MiR's documentation, I'm not sure if it is supposed to work (properly) Alcohol 120%-style images (MDS+MDF), rather only with CloneCD-style (CCD+IMG+SUB) ones...!

I haven't got time right now to check if it works with mdf/mds too (I tended to use the clonecd format, I think), but all the times I used A120% to mount a .mir file in the past I simply changed filetype to "all files" in the A120% open image dialog so I could select the .mir file, and it worked perfectly. Try opening it this way instead of messing around with renaming.

Ok, I've converted my image file. But the blasted SecurROM keeps preventing me from playing. I've used Prot Stop, SecureROM Loader but it still doesn't work!

Works with Daemon as well.
Just choose "All Files" (*.*), and mount the now available .mir file...
Worked fine for me, except for the fact that the image itself was crappy

Um, MIR only works for safedisk AFAIK. You can make a mini image for Securom, but it would be mini only in the sense that you'd zero out any data not required for the copy protection so you'd get a file of the same size, but which can be easily compressed down to a few megabytes. MIR was written for Safedisk protection...

Maybe you'd better tell us which game you're trying to make a mini image for...
