[Ghost_mode]

Ostatnio miałem troszkę zaległości z zabezpieczeniami ale teraz nadrabiam...

Zaciekawiła mnie metoda robienia obrazów przez grupę hakerską MIRROR.
Zainteresowany jak oni kombinują ściągnąłem tylko plik .NFO, który dołączyli do wydanej przez siebie pirackiej wersji TRACKMANIA SUNRISE.

Oto fragmenty:

PROTECTION :: Starforce 3.5
FORMAT :: A120

1. Burn with Alcohol 120, at 4x speed, use securom NEW profile. Make sure RAW DAO is selected. (DO NOT USE SECUROM NEW 4/5, MAKE SURE RMPS IS OFF)
2. When asked, select "Keep TOC as on source cd, write until end of image file"
3. Play

***9608;***9608;***9608; Tech Notes: ***9608;***9608;
***9608;***9608;***9608; ***9608;***9608;
***9608;***9608;***9608; This is a 1:1 true clone of a starforce protected disc, not some ***9608;***9608;
***9608;***9608;***9608; upgrade/downgrade starforce driver workaround or a usb nonide ***9608;***9608;
***9608;***9608;***9608; only clone. This image is a true 1:1 replica of the original ***9608;***9608;
***9608;***9608;***9608; disc, sectors are replicated using tools designed to ***9608;***9608;
***9608;***9608;***9608; copy the uncopyable starforce sectors and implant them in the ***9608;***9608;
***9608;***9608;***9608; image, thus the larger than toc size. This is considered ***9608;***9608;
***9608;***9608;***9608; ***HIGHLY EXPERIMENTAL.*** This means that we can not say 100% ***9608;***9608;
***9608;***9608;***9608; for sure your burned image will work however if you use the the ***9608;***9608;
***9608;***9608;***9608; media listed in the included html( in the zip) ***9608;***9608;
***9608;***9608;***9608; which we will include and ***9608;***9608;
***9608;***9608;***9608; update on every pre you should be fine. ( we did not find an ***9608;***9608;
***9608;***9608;***9608; problems with certain burners or readers seems to be only ***9608;***9608;
***9608;***9608;***9608; media depended). ***9608;***9608;
***9608;***9608;***9608; Even though this is experimental we are ready to release ***9608;***9608;
***9608;***9608;***9608; this to the public after 1 month of intense internal testing ***9608;***9608;
***9608;***9608;***9608; of various drives, media and readers and have some decent ***9608;***9608;
***9608;***9608;***9608; compatibility for a clone that we can warrant this release and ***9608;***9608;
***9608;***9608;***9608; all future ones. ***9608;***9608;
***9608;***9608;***9608; Unfortunate dvd clones will not work as the burners simply cant ***9608;***9608;
***9608;***9608;***9608; do it yet. ***9608;***9608;
***9608;***9608;***9608; Remember again this is experimental if your version seems not to ***9608;***9608;
***9608;***9608;***9608; try different media and at one point you will find a working one. ***9608;***9608;
***9608;***9608;***9608; since sf checks the media type/chemicals of the media the ***9608;***9608;
***9608;***9608;***9608; game is burned on, only certain media will work, specifically ***9608;***9608;
***9608;***9608;***9608; ones that are close to the store bought game. The media that we ***9608;***9608;
***9608;***9608;***9608; have had successes on are included in the html fail also the ones ***9608;***9608;
***9608;***9608;***9608; we failed are listed. Be aware that other medias can work ***9608;***9608;
***9608;***9608;***9608; just as well as what we have listed. Again, this is a EXPRIMENTAL ***9608;***9608;
***9608;***9608;***9608; IMAGE, we are still running tests on it to see what other configs ***9608;***9608;
***9608;***9608;***9608; work, but at the same time, we cannot test every single piece of ***9608;***9608;
***9608;***9608;***9608; media that is made to see if it works with this image. If you ***9608;***9608;
***9608;***9608;***9608; discover other media types that work and you know how to contact ***9608;***9608;
***9608;***9608;***9608; us, then tell us your own experiences. Assuming you got the ***9608;***9608;
***9608;***9608;***9608; right media, we have found that most readers are able to verify ***9608;***9608;
***9608;***9608;***9608; the protection and run the game, but this is to a point. (in ***9608;***9608;
***9608;***9608;***9608; other words, dont expect your crappy 5 dollar 4x TAO burner ***9608;***9608;
***9608;***9608;***9608; to be able to burn starforce clones and dont expect your crappy ***9608;***9608;
***9608;***9608;***9608; 10x reader from 1997 to work with these clones) ***9608;***9608;
***9608;***9608;***9608; ***9608;***9608;
***9608;***9608;***9608; Secondly, this game will work on IDE drives, but they have to be ***9608;***9608;
***9608;***9608;***9608; cdrom/dvdrom (not burner) drives. This is because Starforce ***9608;***9608;
***9608;***9608;***9608; checks the ATIP on the media, and today's ATIP hiders are not ***9608;***9608;
***9608;***9608;***9608; advanced enough to hide the atip through starforce's drivers. We ***9608;***9608;
***9608;***9608;***9608; have had some success with using plextool's atip hider, but the ***9608;***9608;
***9608;***9608;***9608; results with plextools are spotty and very drive dependent. You ***9608;***9608;
***9608;***9608;***9608; just have to wait until someone else with intelligence comes ***9608;***9608;
***9608;***9608;***9608; along and makes an atip hider that isnt weak. Also note mounting ***9608;***9608;
***9608;***9608;***9608; these images in a120 wont work, there needs modifications done on ***9608;***9608;
***9608;***9608;***9608; vdrives to recognize the implanted data. ***9608;***9608;
***9608;***9608;***9608; ***9608;***9608;
***9608;***9608;***9608; the bottom line - burn with good media listed above, and we ***9608;***9608;
***9608;***9608;***9608; recommend good burners like plextors, liteys, etc, and use good ***9608;***9608;
***9608;***9608;***9608; cdrom/dvdrom readers to read the clone. make sure you stay at 4x ***9608;***9608;
***9608;***9608;***9608; speed, raw dao, dont enable stupid emulation crap like rmps, it ***9608;***9608;
***9608;***9608;***9608; is not needed as this is a true sfclone. remember, this is still ***9608;***9608;
***9608;***9608;***9608; cutting edge experimental stuff, experiment with it, if it ***9608;***9608;
***9608;***9608;***9608; doesnt work, try another media type/reader/burner until you get ***9608;***9608;
***9608;***9608;***9608; it to work. ***9608;***9608;

Jako, że powyższy fragment textu nie narusza regulaminu forum postanowiłem go umieścić jako ciekawostka. szkoda tylko, że w lekturze autorzy nie podaali czym modyfikują obraz Alcohola aby DPM był zbędny.

Jeżeli dalej tak pójdzie to będziemy mieć kopie SF wypalane na CD, o ile tylko udostępniony zostanie wsponiany powyżej 'TOOL' do robie obrazu idealnego lub technika zostanie przekazana autorom oprogramowania typu Alcohol/CloneCD/BlindWrite...
