The Matrix - Path of Neo Emulation Problem

[Xtreme2damax]

Thanks for mentioning Gamecopyworld

I got a Maxi Image off that website, because there was no mini images I placed the .mds with the DPM Info into my directory where I ripped the image of the disc, and renamed it to what my MDF was.


It works great, the only thing I don't get is after placing the .mds, renaming it and mounting the game with the proper DPM is:

This doesn't require me to use any sort of Anti-Blacklisting Tool to start or play the game. The game started Just fine after I mounted it in either the latest D-Tools or Alcohol, without even using Securom7.Stop.

I hope I don't get banned from this forum for saying that I got a maxi image, I know the Admins are really strict about this type of thing, I do own the game, I just needed the mds with dpm info to run my game from an image I ripped, as my DVD-RW Drive cannot extract the DPM, and the only other place that has mds files is copybase.ch, but thier website is down.

I believe I was staying totally within legal boundries, but if I wasn't you can undoubtly close this thread and there will be no further questions

Sorry for sounding like a n00b. Perhaps an Admin can Pop in and let me know if I'm ok, and was staying within legal boundries, and I didn't break any rules.

Regardless of what laws they may pass, you will never be sued or get in trouble for making a backup of your original unless you distribute that backup to others. It's just not feasible for them to go after everyone who makes a backup copy for personal use, nor would it make good financial sense in regards to customer's lost.

Agreed.
By the way, making an image is related to the personnal backup right... wich is not forbidden for the moment. So I have the right to make images of my CDs/DVDs
You fall in illegality when you spread that image on the internet... or give it to friends.

No, its fine. You won't get banned. Don't panic !
Mini-images are OK. They dont include any copyrighted material, but modifying an exe of a game is not OK
