Copy protection and daemon tools

Splitter · 04-01-07, 03:11 PM

I've read on here that part of the copy protection ends up with taking the eyes out of your crews heads if it detects you're not running a legit copy. I have a legit copy (and i'll prove it with pictures if i really have to) but i am running daemon tools. Does daemon tools get detected by the copy protection even if youre using a legit copy of the game? I dont fancy having to uninstall it everytime i want to play.
I always use the dvd to run it and not a you-know-what.

Nope, it doesn't. I'm running deamon too and SHIV works like a charm, no eyes popping or whatever.

Though I have the feeling the crew is eyeballing me behind my back sometimes, specially when I begin what they call 'another brainless charge' at a lonesome cargo ship. Gives me the creeps. Great that they put feature that in, wouldn't want to play this game without it anymore.

I highly doubt it, I have both daemon and other tools installed and never experienced those graphical eye issues.

Yep same here.... legit copy, no daemon tools or other virtual drive software, and I only have NERO on my machine being as it came from the OEM with it.

My crew looses thier eyes frequently if I have played for a few hours without a reboot.
