BF2142 mini or maxi Image

Hi all

I'm going to a lanparty this weekend and i don't wanna carry my original DVDs to play, as it is a 3 day event, i'm not going to be in front of a computer the whole time (gotta sleep sometime) and i dont wanna leave anything hanging around my puter. I have my original DVD of 2142, what can I do with it? how can I do it?

thanks, PW

the image i have is made with blindwrite6
try it out

the only problem i seem to have that it only works on the drive i burn the image with... but i did use the trashiest/cheapest DVDR to burn i had

so make a backup copy of your original DVD

@pweasel: Your request is pretty much against forum rule #1. Read it carefully! (Also, think about what happens if the "software police" breaks in and you're playing the gam without any original DVd in sight... )

well in worse case scenario the police would temporary confiscate his pc, then he would have to bring proof of ownership, then his pc would be released,
it is a bit annoying that one have to run around but not an impossible task

but in case of 2142 there is an easier way where one can proof ownership

if you have internet: simply log in to ea.com, click on "get in ea nation", then "log in", "account info"
and there is all the info the police will need even before any trouble would happen

or if you don’t have internet access on the lan party, probably a copy of purchase receipt will do

although so far I know on a lan party if there is a razzia just about every computer there will have some illegal software, so far I’m informed the police will only confiscate pc’s if there is large amount illegal activity going on, a few suspicious games/programs they would let slide – to much paper work for very little chance of prosecution

and for the mater of fact there are tons of guys on lan parties who love to disappear with other peoples goods, the chance of that is much higher then a razzia

Please, note the smiley at the end of my last sentence. What is important, though, is my first sentence.

thanks for your concern regarding my legal status, but here in Uruguay games copyright are not enforced... yet
unless they belong to big companies that make lobby in our govmt like microsoft.

Joe is right that i'm leaning too much in rule #1, part: "Using cracks in a commercial environment such as rentals, internet/cyber cafes, commercial LAN parties etc.! Instead, contact the publisher for an official solution that allows you to install/play the games without using actual CD's/DVD's."

as it is a closed lanparty without internet access, i think i'm going to install the GPRS modem of my cel and use it to browse just in case I neet to log into my EA account in the middle of an usncheduled razzia.

a piece of miscelaneous info: here in Uruguay, there are commercial businesses that deal with pirated games and the police are just concerned with things belonging to MS, Symantec, et al.

moin,

hmm i think im doing something wrong, i got an image of bf mounted in daemon tools(newest version), but it dont work, so i tried to unplug the dvd-drives manually and then it works, but that is not worth the effort... if i had to unplug the drives its simpler to play with the og dvd....

isnt there amother posibility to play the game online without to unplug the drives? if i just deactivate the drives, the game ask for the og dvd...

If you took the time to read through the posts of this thread, you will realize there was a crack for multiplayer. But due to the new 1.10 patch, they crack no longer works.

And we always knew that little exploit was going to be stopped someday.

Also please read Forum Rule #6.
