how to get the following games to work

[vintagecdromgirl]

what's the one on my archive.org?

[shadowcat]

Your copy I believe, which uses a MYTH crack (Start WWB - Operation Salvage.exe)

I'm way too easily distracted.

Star Wars Republic Commando is copy-protected and needs a CD-Key (I downloaded it from archive.org, and it didn't come with a no-cd file) so is Star Wars Battlefront II 2005 (didn't come with a no-cd file either)

will the MYTH crack work? but if you think a more generic crack would work, let me know if you find one

[shadowcat]

The MYTH crack works. It's a generic flash player replacement. They just watermarked their name into some empty space. It's safe.


Republic Commando = Securom 5.03. I'm surprised if there's not a nocd available somewhere ... I played it a long time ago but can't remember how.

Battlefront II = SecuROM 7.12. Danger flags. It's a popular game so there should be something out there ... If you can find the DVD-5 1.1 re-release, it should be protect-free.


(wish I had more time to look into at SW:RC. SW:BF2 would be a killer being the S7 family. I remember playing a Disney Princess game that was S7-protected also.

would that Disney Princess Game be Enchanted Journey?

[shadowcat]

That's probably the one. Might be another too.

I'm not able to get my old Securom 4-5 breaker working.

[vintagecdromgirl]

was a no-cd file included in your Cars 2: The Video Game download? some say it's caused viruses for them on Archive.Org

[vintagecdromgirl]

oh yeah and iCarly iDream in Toons seems to have this error when I install it (I have it burned to a disk), and it doesn't install

[vintagecdromgirl]

is Antz Extreme Racing copy-protected?

I was able to install and try it without problems. You can likely use a virtual box to install and then migrate the files out. Or maybe compatibility mode.

But complete ouch! to Nickelodeon striking down a lot of edu titles.


EDIT:

is Antz Extreme Racing copy-protected?

No but it uses DX8 which for me produces yellow blobs and missing hud pieces. Some games wanted dxwnd to set d3d:ForceColorKeyOff but no luck here.

[vintagecdromgirl]

I found another iCarly iDream in Toons that works, but when I try to start Antz Extreme Racing on Windows 7, it does not start
anyway, Scrabble Champion Edition is copy-protected...uses SecuRom, and I think the Postman Pat PC Game from 2006 by GameHouse is copy-protected too..
UPDATE: Postman Pat game from 2006 isn't copy-protected it doesn't work on Windows 7 and up

[vintagecdromgirl]

is Shrek's Carnival Craze Party Games copy-protected as well?

[Scaryfun]

This says it has no protection - https://gamecopyworld.com/games/pc_shre ... raze.shtml

right...I was just asking, because something tells me a lot of games from that era may be copy-protected
