I downloaded three sets of .bin and .cue files. I have tried burning but when I try and install I get a "Cyclic Redundancy Error" when it's trying to install the file 2_1_1.LSO It always happens at this same spot. When I use CDmage to try and repair it, I get a little farther, instead of just giving me the error, it allows me to "Ignore" "Retry" or "abort". I click ignore and it gets a little farther and then it tells me "Catastrophic Failure" . What am I doing wrong? I have tried using many different setting and have wasted many discs. I have stopped using discs until I get it working from my HD. I have Alcohol 120%, DAEMON Tools, Blind Write, CDmage. My CD burner is a LITE-ON LTR-48126S
i d/led all 3 discs off kazaa. with no problems. im not the best at tech support. but i believe the problem may have been created while the files were being transfered
ya i suggest you should. here is the name of the files i got from kazaa. make sure u get these exact ones. i kno its a pain in the ass to get these 700mb files AGAIN. but if u wanna play one of the best games ever, i suggest doing so. it is so worth d/ling this game. i loved it. in kazaa search for all: "splinter cell bin" FLT-SC1.bin FLT-SC2.BIN FLT-SC3.BIN_X_X_X_X_X_[small]Veteran Newbie[/small]
It's going to take f****** forever, but if it might help I will try it. If it dosn't work after that I guess I will just buy it.
Burn at 8x m8. Your Litey can easily defeat Safedisc 2.x. Be sure your using the Safedisc 2 datatype profile (Alcohol 120%) and burn RAW DAO. Shoey
I think I may have changed the setting for Safedisc 2, just to be safe what should the settings be in Alcohol120% I redownloaded disc one. I get a little farther, It gets to one of the map files, but then I get a Catastrophic Error message. I'm running it from the HD, if I burn it to a cd, will it change something? I tried mounting it with DAEMON tools and Alcohol120% but both gave me the error messages. Is there anything else I can do?
Try burning to a cd-rw and play the backup in your dvd-cd-rom. if you don't have any cd-rw's then burn to a cd-r using Alcohol 120% with Safedisc 2 datatype profile (RAW DAO) at 8x. If the backup fails to install\play then enable all emulation and try again. Shoey
Same thing happening to me. I have written the CD's with Nero, no problem, but I get a Catastrophic Failure just as the game starts to install, refers to game files. I tried a game crack, it ranbut nothing happened, I tried to install after, but same problem. Any Clues??
You don't use Nero to backup Safedisc 2.x cd protection m8. Use programs like Alcohol 120%, Blindwrite Suite or CloneCD. What is the brand name and model# of your burner as you "may" need emulation to play your backups. Shoey
im haveing problems burning these same image files with alcohol. the program says my image files are an 'unrecognized format for recording'. i have flt-sc1.bin (sc2,sc3) and the maching file cue's. what am i doing wrong?
I must be really lucky, I have downloaded lots of games and successfully burned them all with Alcohol 120% set to 'custom' and RAW-DAO. That's all I do everytime. Although, I don't use Kazaa so that could be a factor, bad files or corrupt downloads are the common problem.
Open Alcohol 120%>option>shell extension>enable cue file format. Open image burning wizard and choose the Safedisc 2 datatype profile& load the "cue"& burn (RAW DAO) at 8x. Play the backup in your dvd\cd-rom. if it won't spin up then play in your cd burner and enable "ignore media type" found in emulation options. Alcohol 120% [bold] must be running in system tray [/bold] if using emulation (ignore media type). =============================================== Wait until you have to backup SecuROM 4.8.3^up and you'll have serious problems using "custom" to backup. Shoey
Yeah, can't wait for that day. for the time being I'm just happy plodding along, being lucky. But I think we are talking two different issues here, copying original discs and burning downloaded images. Copying a disc is far harder, I agree.
Look for Unreal Tournament 2003 or Grand Theft Auto Vice City via p2p file sharing client and download m8 (not bin& cue file format). Nobody is debating the issue on this thread a differance beteen downloading pc protected game titles and making backups of the "original". Shoey
"Look for Unreal Tournament 2003 or Grand Theft Auto Vice City via p2p file sharing client and download m8 " why?
Get your feet "wet" and backup SecuROM 4.8.x cd protection m8. I assure you you can't backup these 2 pc game titles using Alcohol 120% custom datatype profile setting. Shoey
