(in answer to your question, which is stated in the FAQ, no discussion of these sorts of things is allowed)

So...how 'bout that NFL draft, eh?

Nothing to see here move along folks..

Anyway, I do not recommend using it. Bad mojo on game play.

There has been many posts here complaining about this and that bug keys not working, strange maps, paper thin crew, bug eyes etc etc etc.

99% of which were eventually attributed to using a crack.

You have been warned.

A no CD (or in this case DVD) patch is not the same as illegaly copying the game. Myself I always prefer to run games via Deamon Tools or similar. It have several benefits doing it that way.

First off you do not need to have the original media in the optical disk all the time you want to play a game. I have had DVDs actually disintegrate in my drive before from extended use. It was not pretty...

And it cost me shelling out for a new DVD player/recorder.

Secondly, keeping an original image on HD loads a game way faster, and keep the original safely in its cover on the shelf where it belongs.

I've run various work-arounds for my purchased games since CDs were introduced. CDs and DVDs are not a viable long term storage medium when used often. It's just the nature of the material used. They get brittle from dry warm enviroment as is typical inside PCs.

In short I want a little crack that allows a mini-image to be recognized as a legit copy. Like in BF42, BFV and BF2. It saves a lot of usage on original media, and also as long as some online verification is needed, has zero chance of being a pirate tool.

well I too use No-DVDs or mini-images with my games I bought. Its because I dont wanna play one game for weeks and then shelf it..no..i currently play SH4, Neverwinters Nights 2, Sword of the stars, BF2142 and some other games if my work shifts and family allows it.
I just dont wanna swap DVDs all the time so a Fixed exe or mini-Image is my way to go. Perservation of my original DVDs is also a point.


Dont associate no-DVD user = lame-ass Downloader thank you very much
