Sim City 3000: World edition
Hi all,
I'm new to this page (and to this whole business for that matter). I'm having some problems backing up my copy of Sim City 3000: World edition. It's a European version (I can choose between Dutch language, English-UK, French, Italian and Swedish (so I guess it's just PAL). Could anyone tell me how to make a backup? I looked on the site, but there I found something of a SC3.exe file, and that is not on my CD, nor on my harddisk (probably the difference between the regular version and the world edition). I'm using Nero version 5 and CloneCD (demo version). I would appreciate it if someone could help me. One more thing: I don't have a lot of experience in this, so I really need all the basics. I hope I'll learn it fast.  Thanks people!!

Thanks for the tip, but as I said, I already looked there and it's still not really clear to me. Sorry but I'm all new to this stuff and I don't really know about all these patches and stuff.
 If someone could tell me exactly how to do it, step by step, I think could manage it. So, would someone please do that, explain it step by step? Thanks people, appreciate it. Thanks for the time

Ok, I've been looking around a bit and I already know a little more I think. So, what do I have to do?
A. Do I have to make a copy of the CD and do I need to replace the exe-file installed on my harddisk? B. OR do I have to copy the entire content of the CD to my harddisk, replace the exe-file by the one from this site, and then burn everything from that map to a CD? If it is A, then how do I make a copy, because CloneCD and Nero won't even read the original CD. If it is B, then I think I can manage. Would someone please tell me how to do this?? Thanks people, I appreciate any help!! Firecracker

Hi again.
I've tried to do it in the way I was told. I copied the content of the CD to a folder on my harddisk, replaced the SC3U.exe file there by the one from the site. I then burned the content of that folder to a CD-RW (I didn't want to waste a CD). When I inserted the CD and started the game, it said I had to insert the correct CD. I then also replaced the installed SC3U.exe file by the one I downloaded, but that didn't work either. So, can anyone help me with this? Maybe it's because of the version I have. Maybe it's not the same version as the one the file was made for. As I wrote earlier, I can choose between Dutch language, English-UK, French, Italian and Swedish. Some help would be welcome. :-D Thanks. :-D Firecracker
