This game works , but only in Winxp Sp2 by using a drive hider or registry editing and removing of your drive ... in Vista\Win7\Win8\Win10 this game will not run since this version uses Safedisc ... but "Fugitive Hunter - War on Terror" the same game but published under a different name has only a simple CD check and a crck

NOCD for the Russian version works with English version, but there is a lot of Russian text

1. Install the game
2. Copy Optical drive:\FMV_PC into the main game folder C:\Program Files (x86)\America's 10 Most Wanted
3. Copy AMW10.exe from archive into C:\Program Files (x86)\America's 10 Most Wanted\MAKE\
4. Apply graphical fix as needed.

You can change res with the config.exe tool.

Parts of the game are sadly still in Russian due to the .exe. Maybe someone wants to apply their leet skills and fix it. As viewing the file with a hex editor reveals a few different languages.

Update

Russian ISO and NOCD, English ISO and modified NOCD
HIDE: ON

Russian ISO included in the google drive for those that are weird like that.

If people still want to try the safedisc driver enable method.

Windows 10 is being used here

Actually got that driver finally signed and safedisc renabled, and can confirm that the physical retail copy at least works. I have no idea wthat I did though in the end :P The built in disable driver signature enforcement method in Windows 10 didnt work for me.

What I believe in ended up doing. (Confirmed with a VM.)

Download this file
https://community.pcgamingwiki.com/file ... rwin10zip/

Extract to a temporary location on the system.
Copy secdrv.sys to C:\Windows\System32\drivers\
Import secdrv.reg to Windows registry.

Enable test mode
http://maxedtech.com/about-testmode/
Press Start->Search->type cmd then right-click on the result and click Run as administrator. In the CMD window type or copy-paste

Code: Select all

bcdedit /set testsigning on
and press enter. Restart PC.

You should see a watermark on your desktop.

Sign the driver
https://www.ngohq.com/driver-signature- ... rider.html
Sign a System File
C:\Windows\System32\drivers\secdrv.sys

Only use the driver signing option not the other ones


Vertify/start the Safedisc driver:
sc start secdrv you should either get information about it or a message that it is already running.

sc qc secdrv should bring up this

Mount to physical drive (SCSI) also work with the image provided here. DT lite 10.14. The virtual IDE drive method also work, needs to be IDE, it wont accept a normal DT drive. I dont believe Safedisc has a grace period which some DRMS at least have.

So the actual challenge is getting Windows to behave and do what you want.

The file should say NGO if you got the driver signature bit working

No sound and some control issues caused by the framerate and the VM/recording. Not that it really proves anything. Physical drive/disc mounted in Vmware.

Sdloader as mentioned on the previous page is not really required.

UPDATE
Instructions above also work on Windows 7, confirmed just now.

Early crack has been made. Thanks to MrPepka for sending me it and the folks over at old-games.ru. Credits to vitlgt for the modified Russian crack (LASTOFASS)

Russian ISO and NOCD, English ISO and modified NOCD.

https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/ ... sp=sharing Folder also include graphical fix

There is a slight error in the missions description, but at least you are able to play the game without messing with Windows :) (FIXED NOW)
https://i.ibb.co/q9RVY5K/as8-hostingkar ... 3294c2.jpg

Same instructions apply.

1. Install the game
2. Copy Optical drive:\FMV_PC into the main game folder C:\Program Files (x86)\America's 10 Most Wanted
3. Copy AMW10.exe from archive into C:\Program Files (x86)\America's 10 Most Wanted\MAKE\
4. Apply graphical fix as needed.

Updated NOCD added to archive, "translation" bug fixed. 18.04.2021
https://rutracker.org/forum/viewtopic.p ... start=1980

Links should be up to date now, as I saw that I missed some files when transfering between google accounts. Scaryfun don't have to do anything :lol:

Still somewhat bugged.
The actual ingame mission objectives remains in English though. Here it should say capture the other terrorists first or something similar, been a long time since I played the game.

Tried it in my Win10 64bit VM which i did the force safedisc driver to be loaded trick
https://i.ibb.co/7v4PLXr/A10-MW-2021-04 ... -55-87.jpg

Yeah yeah, at least I got the game working in both my VM and Desktop Win10 64bit system, with the safedisc driver signature method. So it is solved for me :P Went back to the original protected exe.

A proper NOCD is finally out, it been almost 20 years, I don't believe the game ever got a NOCD until this year.

Updated my upload to reflect it, same link (google drive).
