Ok so i dlownload the mod, no sweat, no errors of any kind, i'm now rubbing my hands in preparation to playing this amazing looking mod when, boom, CD required, huh? cd required whats up with this, because this is abit of a problem as i no longer have the cd and i've been running it off the hard drive, so is there a way to get around this so i can play or is this a precaution to keep illegitimate copies from installing and playing this mod.Because honestly, i find it sorta....odd, that the CD would be required.So please do tell, is there a way to fix this? if not, i guess i'll go find another mod.    |

damn...(pardon language) well i've got an idea of how to do it, i know where i can download the game off the internet as a image file, i have a program that can mount that image as the actual files on a "fake" drive and i'll try and put that in as the drive to be used in installation, it'll be awhile before the download is complete so it will be a day or two before i know if this works.

if you have a good image demon tools work. i use demon tools for my armada image (i always have it in one of my virtual drives to save myself all the disc trouble if you want to play another game). Make sure your image is not a ripp or something. you can simply make a image of a bought cd with clone cd for example. Or by it for $5  |
