Title: Wooohoooo! *boogies* Post by: Edana ni Emer on 2006 April 12, 17:01:17 I found out what was causing my stuck grade-bar issue! It was the damn no-cd patch for OFB! As soon as I got rid of that, everything went back to normal!
Now I just have to find a no-cd patch for OFB that *works*. Title: Re: Wooohoooo! *boogies* Post by: jrd on 2006 April 12, 18:20:48 Mount a mini-image with D-tools 4 and use a Safedisc hider. WFM, YMMV.
Or just use D-tools 3 and a mini-image. Title: Re: Wooohoooo! *boogies* Post by: Edana ni Emer on 2006 April 12, 18:28:19 Is a mini-image different from an .mdf file? Cause I had DTools 3-something and the .mds and .mdf file, *and* the hider, and it still wouldn't work.
Title: Re: Wooohoooo! *boogies* Post by: Ms_Tamany on 2006 April 13, 01:58:03 What I do is use Game Jackal (you can google for it). It's not free, but it's cheap, and what it basically does is record the anti-copy info off the CD and puts it into a profile. That's all the computer needs your CD for, with OFB, anyway, is to read the 'yup, he bought it' info. Game Jackal basically gives the computer permission to run the game. You have to run OFB with the disk in once, so it can build the profile, and you have to run it any consecutive time through the Game Jackal shortcut you can create, but it's been working just fine with no CD for me. WHEEE!
