Safari downloaded it fine for me (v125.1)
Interesting, it looks like for some games it works, and some games it doesn't (just make sure you are clicking the actual CD in disk utility) I don't quite know how to explain this, as it works with 2 of my games, but doesn't with 2 others. :confused: Thanks for the tip though. |
I was able to download the movie too with no problem.
I was able to find the dropdown menu after viewing it. I had to add one more step and unmount the audio cd. Once I did that the option came up and it made a .cdr. It still won't let me play the game without the cd - but I am one step closer. Thanks. |
MBHockey-
Do the games that won't let you create a DVD/CD master with Disk Utility allow it with Toast? If so, I wonder if it could be some sort of permissions issue.. schwartze- After you get the .cdr on the desktop, did you double-click on it to mount it? You must do this before you fire up the game. addendum: After scouring Apple's .mac forums and not finding the answer to my problem (but plenty of other people with the same issue) I finally figured it out. After I cleared Safari's cache, the download link worked fine. Why a new page would view fine but the download link wouldn't, I don't know. After all, it's a NEW page, nothing should be in Safari's cache concerning it... I guess when I muck about with my .mac page, I'll just routinely clear the cache! |
Yes Toast works for ALL games.
|
Yes, I did double click on it first. I also checked to make sure the image had the same name as the cd. I installed the files it wanted me to on the HD as well.
Stumped at the moment - but thanks for all the ideas and suggestions. |
I have found toast always works when mounting images too... Has anyone found out what the difference is between an image mounted with toast and an image mounted with disk utility? Has anyone found an alternative way to mount the images so they are seen as cd's as with toast?

hhahahaha :D

I thought I'd bump this back up and see if anyone is having problems with OS 10.4 and tricking games into thinking there is a cd in the drive.
|
Well, if the game is hard-coded to look for it's files (or a special sector) on the CD, then you are just out of luck (unless you can find a cracked version, but that is another topic).
