SH III without *crapforce*

switch.dota · 05-28-07, 10:15 AM

Hey guys!

Is there any way to buy SH III with a decent copy protection? I've already returned the copy I got today because of the Starforce protection system.

There is no non-Starforce version avalable to buy. There is a simple workaround, but I'm not going to mention it here.

You can remove Starforce using the removal tool from here:

.....but it will install itself again when you insert your disc unless you can figure out a solution

There was a mention in an earlier thread of discount version not requiring starforce. The debate of whether it was a pirate copy or not is yet to be determined.

IIRC it was 'goldorak' from Italy :hmm:

I have a Starforce free-1.4 patched budget version of Sh III.

If you happen to live her in Northern Europe I bet you can get your hands on one as well...

I bought it in a regular shop.

SH III can be found for budget prices all over the place....you just have to find a later release version and not the original one.
