ur gta3 is a 2 cd ripped version right? if i am right, then use discjuggler to make an image and copy it.

GTA3 is protected with SafeDisc2. If your copy works, then it is also protected with SD2.

he says he can't get the PLAY DISC to copy. so i am guessing his gta3 is the ripped version.

I don't follow your logic.... If he can't get it to copy then surly it is more likely a properly Cloned copy where the play disc is still protected with SD2.

i thought the professional ripped version doesn't have SD2 protection. or does it?

Who said anything about a ripped version though. They said they finally got a working copy. I assume this means that they got a proper working copy, which means that the play disc would still have SD2 on it. Which would also explain their problems copying it.

well, that's depends on what our interpretation of "working copy". he might have a working copy of a ripped version of gta3, or he might have a working copy of orginial gta3. because sometimes i have some problems on coping certain pc games using certain program, like cdrwin.

Well, I know they were having problems with the cracked version. So I assumed they got a proper Cloned copy.

The ripped version wouldn't have a play CD to have problems copying though.

use cloncd

I had the same problem. Make an ISO of cd2 with CloneCD at the lowest speed. When you re-burn the ISO onto a disk, it'll work, but you'll need to burn any copies from that same ISO, not a burnt disk.

Look, your logic well...sucks.

If he has a ripped version, WHY WOULD HE HAVE PROBLEMS COPYING IT?!

The only reason he would have a problem with it is if he has a 1:1 copy.

Interpret that.

so wrong.......the ripped copy doesn't burn easily, not just with a straight Nero cd-copy. Trust me, I had to replace 18 copies of the dam game cuz the 2nd disk wouldn't copy right and it was the RIPPED VERSION.

:hail: thanks purecat, finally someone understand that.

and hercule5: i just want to share my opinion, and may be i can help The Game 3H out. so i will just smile, and walk away :splat:

Do you know what a ripped game is?? It doesn't come on CD. I believe you are talking about the cracked version, which is somewhat different to the ripped version.

i thought the professional ripped version doesn't have SD2 protection. or does it?

Ripped games, as druid states, do not come on a CD.

The releases from groups like fairlight razor and deviance, are not perfect copies as they require no-cd cracks to play.

Their fake ISO's are usually in cdrwin's bin-cue format. CDRWIN, of course, cannot copy any protections

clonecd can make a perfect working copy of GTA3 with the right burner such as a LiteOn 32x. a 1:1 copy carries with it the same copy protection as the original.

Know what you are talking about before claiming you do.

He's talking about the ripped version.....the ISO burned onto the cd....the deviance release, which originally came from the ISO.....won't...freaking....burn...with....a....st raight....burn. Trust me, you don't replace 18 copies of a 2 disk game and not learn what the problem was and how to fix it.

The Game 3H, if you need any further help, email me and I can help you out cuz I for one know exactly what you are talking about.

Peace out

I am one of the people that purecat had to replace the game for. The game would burn and everything but when I open up the files with a hex editor all the files on their are all 0's. So purecat sent me a working one and now I can play GTA3.

DC Fisherman

purecat knows what i am talking about. that's why i asked The Game 3H what version is it. i am asking him is it the deviance version, or the 1:1 copy?

and hercule5, i think i don't understand what u mean by "The releases from groups like fairlight razor and deviance, are not perfect copies as they require no-cd cracks to play."

i don't require a no cd crack for MY GTA3 to play.

Game Notes:

~~~~~~~~~~~

You've been betrayed and left for dead. Now you're taking revenge, unless

the city gets you first. Mob bosses need a favor, crooked cops need help

and street gangs want you dead. You'll have to rob, steal and kill just

to stay out of serious trouble. Anything can happen out here.


Featuring a fully 3-D living city, a combination of narrative driven and

non-linear gameplay and a completely open environment, the game represents

a huge leap forward in interactive entertainment. For the first time, players

are put at the heart of their very own gangster movie, and let loose in a

fully-realised 3 dimensional city, in which anything can happen and probably

will.


With a cast of hundreds, 50 plus vehicles, ranging from sports cars to ice

cream trucks and from boats to buses, 3 hours of music, including opera,

reggae, house, drum and bass, pop and disco, a huge array of street ready

weapons and some of the seediest characters in video game history, Grand

Theft Auto 3 is a sprawling epic which will show you that sometimes, crime

can payand sometimes it can pay you back.




Install Notes:

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

1) Unrar.

2) Burn the .cue and .bin with CDRWin or Fireburner.

3) Install the game.
