I would appreciate some help to create a working image of the Freedom Force vs. the 3rd Reich CD (The UK edition). It is protected by Starforce 3.4.76.0 I believe (from looking at the version of the protect.dll file). I've tried several images using different settings, e.g.:
- Using the Starforce 1/2/3/4 profile in Alcohol with DPM precision being normal (I'm unable to select high for the Starforce profile, is that meant to be the case?)
- Using a custom profile with DPM precision high, DPM read speed 1x and disc read speed being several different settings (e.g. 1x, 2x, Max).
The image works fine during installation. However, after either using Starforce Nightmare to disable, or physically disconnecting, my optical drive I try to run the game - at this point the Starforce protection says that my CD-key does not match the disc. If I insert the original disc though (obviously with the optical drive enabled) it works fine. All of the images I have made give the same problem.
I should mention that I've made working images of two other Starforce protected games - Prince of Persia: The Two Thrones (DVD), which works without any problems, and Trackmania, the which works when I disable my optical drive.
Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated!
