acdcfanbill Posted February 25, 2007 Share Posted February 25, 2007 generally this message crops up from using a nocd crack on the game. If you're doing that you should just use your regular disc or go buy the game, it's quite cheap now. If you are sure you arn't using a nocd crack, this error can sometimes occur from corrupted packets being transferred back and forth. you might want to try updating drivers for your LAN/Ethernet or get an update for your router if there is one.

Johnpp Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 If you have a EB games any where near you it should be in there. Also, No cd cracks are illegal. . But I am sure you knew that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ensiform Posted March 3, 2007 Share Posted March 3, 2007 They are not illegal if you own the game yourself. I would recommend buying it again and making an iso of disc 1 and just have a mount application like Virtual Clone Drive from Slysoft (Free) so you don't need to have the real disc in all the time. Or Daemon Tools, or Alcohol 120% (but not so free). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acdcfanbill Posted March 4, 2007 Share Posted March 4, 2007 IANAL but I'm pretty sure that no-cd cracks fall under the category of circumvention in accordance with the DMCA. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WIPO_Copyright_and_Performances_and_Phonograms_Treaties_Implementation_Act#Section_103 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dtriniman Posted March 4, 2007 Share Posted March 4, 2007 Just make an image of the game and use it in a virtual drive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kurgan Posted March 9, 2007 Share Posted March 9, 2007 You can order the game online from several places. It's quite cheap nowadays! Anyway, the point is not that using cd cracks make you a bad person per se (you might have legit reasons to use one), but that if you're pirating the game, you have nobody to blame but yourself if something goes wrong, ditto if you're using an unofficial modification of the executable, like a home-made "crack." If the error goes away once you remove the crack, then there's your answer. Considering what our site is all about of course, we don't encourage piracy of LucasArts or Star Wars products. Questions about this error message get asked from time to time and most people don't understand the issues involved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
