SafeDisc top<br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Technology that seems to be based on the Securom method. This technology encrypts the CD with a digital signature which can't be picked up by CD recorders and a multi- layered wrapper that secures the CD-ROM content. SafeDisc is currently being utilized by Eidos, TalonSoft, GT Interactive, Interplay, Microprose, Red Storm and Take Two Interactive.
From the Safedisc homepage (http://www.macrovision.com/scp.html):
"The SAFEDISC technology is comprised of three key features: (1) an authenticating digital signature, (2) encryption that protects the content, and (3) anti-hacking software. During pre mastering, the content is encrypted and carries with it authentication instructions. A unique SAFEDISC digital signature is subsequently added to the title during mastering. When a user plays an original disc, the authentication software reads the digital signature allowing the program to be decrypted and to play normally. This authentication process is transparent to the user. The original CD must be present in the CD-ROM drive to allow the authentication to occur. When attempting to make an unauthorized copy with a CD-R or with professional mastering equipment, the digital signature is not transferred to the copy. When an unauthorized copy is played back, the absence of the signature will prevent decryption of the program and the copy will not play.. SAFEDISC also includes anti-hacking technology that prevents the compromise of its security features. The anti-hacking technology is designed to not only deter casual copying, but also to provide strong resistance to destructive hackers and commercial pirates." <br />More information: Cdilla SafeDisc and Macrovison SafeDisc <br /> <br />Games protected with SafeDisc:

Solution: <br />Copy the CD with CDRWin like this: As the cd has errors first make an image on your hard disk (this can take up to a couple of hours...!). Settings: Non-RAW copy, Data read speed: 1x, Audio read speed: whatever you like (no errors on audio tracks), Ignore errors (if you use raw copy, you'd probably better choose "repair errors" to get an error free copy). After completing the image u can burn the CD.<br />Now before you start the game from your copied CD you will have to start the Laxity crack. Note: keep the crack 'running' while you are playing the game!!!
There are a few CD-Readers which are capable in making a 1:1 CD-Copy and then don't need any patch to play the game. The Teac CD-532S & Teac CD-R55S are the best drives to do this.
Also a new tool against SafeDisc is C.U.Dilla. This tool makes it possible to create your own patches. It simply removes the protection code of the game.exe
More solutions can be found on this page.
How to detect: <br />There are some files that are located on every cd:
00000001.TMP <br />CLCD16.DLL <br />CLCD32.DLL <br />CLOKSPL.EXE <br />Furthermore there is always a GAME.EXE and a GAME.ICD where the ICD file is the actually executable and the .EXE is part of the SafeDisc protection.
Nice long reading time for you gaz <img src="wink.gif" border="0"> <br />Let me know how you get on <img src="smile.gif" border="0">
