Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Vegas 1.01

[carrotdude]

I can play the retail 1.00 just fine with Yasu 1.04 and DT 4.08, but after the patch it gives me the protection error "please insert the DVD in drive E"
Any way to play the new patch ?

[evlncrn8]

it updated the protection? if so, scan with protection id so we know the securom version (think the games securom protected, not 100% though)

[baracus2k]

it says securom 7.xx

[evlncrn8]

odd, other forums report its 7.29 or newer, guess you need to update your scanner..

[baracus2k]

yup 7.29 (or newer) is what it says for me as well... i had an older version of protection id for some reason

[Blazkowicz]

Newest public version is unable to retrieve version. It has SecuRom 7.30.0010.

Maybe it will work if you disable your optical drives in device manager.

[carrotdude]

yeah that works, but its quite annoying, cause i use the DVD drive all the time

[solway]

have you tried yasu 1.3?

APPARENTLY (as in I saw that posted on the R6 forum before it was immediately deleted by the moderator you can get it to work like this:

If u cant get it to work
If youre having problems with getting R6V to work after the patch do this:
Use Regedit and go to hkey_local_machine -> system -> mounted_devices -> dosdevices
There should be a letter there (e.g. "\H:" if your DTools drive has the letter H.) Rename it to "\H.I:" (or whatever your DTools drive is plus the next letter separated with a ".")
Now just run the game with your choice of Securom loader

Have not tested it myself as still @ work

[evlncrn8]

aah yeh the old registry trick.. worked in older versions, unsure of this one because my pc is below spec for the game so i cant test ;(

[sirex2003]

I renamed my dosdevices name of daemontools drive to my real drive and i can play now even without yasu.

[baracus2k]

that method doesnt work for me and seems too much of a hassle compared to using the real disc

[ahmedham81]

Here is what i did it worked

Follow this steps:

1.load the RAINBOW SIX with daemon tools with emulation-all
options on,dont run the game,exit it.
2.go to start->run->regedit->hkey_local_machine->system-
>mounted_devices
3.find in here your daemon tools virtual
drives(for me its \dosdevices\G:&\dosdevices\I: ) and
rename it to( \dosdevices\G.H:&\dosdevices\I.H: )
as H isyour real drive .
4.remove all the drives that are not in use in regedit.
example: just go to hkey_local_machine/system/mounted
devices
and remove all drives(\dosdevices) including your real
drive name for me it was (\dosdevices H
in my case i only keep the A: (floppy) C: (hard drive)
D: (hard drive) & G: (virtual drive)& I: (virtual drive)
5.run the game without any loader
6.have fun using the new trick

[evlncrn8]

bad idea deleting those keys, when you reboot your drive letters can (and most likely) will change.. which can be an annoyance...
