  • Starforce image mds->iso ?

    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 ?

    Regards,

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

    Also, why do you want to convert to ISO?
    Make something idiot proof, but then they just make a better idiot

        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...
