i can't seem to run Maisy's Playhouse on Windows 7 32-bit...has anyone else tried it on Windows 7 32-bit?

PS is Little People Discovery Airport Copy-Protected too?

[vintagecdromgirl]

i'm uploading Tiny Planets Heroes of the Universe soon...not sure if that one is gonna be copy-protected or not (as it's a potential BBC title), will let you know when it's been uploaded

EDIT: https://archive.org/details/tiny-planets_202309 here it is, it could be copy-protected...as it's a later BBC multimedia title, and it is copy-protected

[vintagecdromgirl]

any updates on a nocd for Tiny Planets yet?

[vintagecdromgirl]

and Jay Jay the Jet Plane High Flying Sky Circus may have copy-protection TBC

[vintagecdromgirl]

where's everyone been? (sorry I'm used to having quick replies sometimes...but if there's no solution at the moment, then that's fine by me)

Whoops. I've been helping out other retro projects and forgot to check-in here. :embarassed:

Let me check that BBC title right now.

BBC Tiny Planets - nocd
https://bayfiles.io/VYl/tiny-planets.exe

SecuROM 4.84.81 + Macromedia Flash Player.


EDIT:
If you get a dumb message about missing ordinal, add these files to game directory
https://bayfiles.io/Lo3/flash-extras.7z

Or use Win95 compatibility.


EDIT2:
Jay Jay I think has some type of basic CD protection. I'll make another post if I break it.


EDIT3:
Had to update the Win7 to Win10 so can't help much there anymore. FP Airport is next on the deck.

sorry, everyone has their own thing outside of here i asked about FPAirport because my copy has worn out, and I had to do another one
so Jay-Jay doesn't have a proper crack, just the directory or Win95 Compatibility Mode

[vintagecdromgirl]

apparently all the Jay-Jay games are copy-protected, and need a D drive for disks

[shadowcat]

Jay Jay the Jet Plane: High Flying Sky Circus - nocd
https://bayfiles.io/A0p/opening.dxr


Jay Jay the Jet Plane: Jay Jay Earns His Wings - nocd
https://bayfiles.io/8kA/opening.dxr


Jay Jay the Jet Plane: Sky Heroes to the Rescue - nocd
https://bayfiles.io/rWx/opening.dxr


EDIT: Discovery Airport works with D drive. Will give nocd more thought because it's not unpacking with ProjectorRays. Maybe I can hack it too, guess I got better after the break.

1437 uploads and still finding more.

[vintagecdromgirl]

with Jay-Jay Sky High Circus, do we still add the directory too when we swap the opening dxr with the nocd opening dxr? the sky high circus is DIR not DXR on BayFiles by the way

EDIT: I tested it with the DIR on High Flying Sky Circus and it worked

[shadowcat]

Bayfiles uses some hashing trick to save space so I can't rename it on the server. But nice of you to test it anyways! I originally intended to have dxr so it's drag-drop-replace friendly. But whatever works is fine.


I think I have Discovery Airport figured out. Will edit this post if it passes the test.


EDIT2:
Fisher Price - Little People: Discovery Airport - nocd [2023-10-05 update]
https://bayfiles.io/o1b/lpa-start.dir

Code: Select all

Copy <CD>\lpafiles to <install>\lpa.


[vintagecdromgirl]

i'll try Fisher Price Airport at some stage, if my copy says it needs the disk, i will download the nocd then, so it appears that Discovery Airport is copy-protected

[shadowcat]

Discovery Airport CD can run legit in D drive only, like the others.


EDIT: Updated the nocd to be a little easier to use. <CD>\lpafiles -> <HD>\lpa folder.

[vintagecdromgirl]

i have an external drive, and it seemed to run in that just fine with an actual cd disk...
Also Caillou Four Seasons of Fun seems to have copy-protection too
