Starforce image mds->iso ?

[labba]

Hi

Is there an application that knows to convert an mds+mdf files to ISO image without harming the image ?

i have tried with Knights Of The Temple 2 and with MagicISO and failed ... the starforce protection says that it's not the correct CD ..

so is it possible at all ? and if so with what app i can do so ?

Not possible - ISO can't contain protection related data.

Also, why do you want to convert to ISO?

I just wanted to work with app that it's virtual cd only knows how to work with ISO ...

thanks for the quick response ...

well the mds file (think its mds.. whatever one is largest) is usually iso standard (no idea if this has changed with the recent v2 of the mds/mdf format).. so it should be mountable (provided of course you didn't make it with compression and so on)... worth a shot at least..

but, as blazi says, iso format does not contain the protection information / protection 'signatures' so even if its mountable (assuming the disk is protected) it might not be usable...
