Hello Deathcom3s
Apologies if I did something wrong in the CD emulation thread. But you are right, andreasaspenberg now has all the clues in the world he needs. Now it is up to him to experiment. For DK2, he really did not think hard enough (it is not a simple CD check fyi).
Shar Dundred and Roland already expressed concerns in VM about me helping him. I do believe W10 alone is the issue here, and I do believe he owns the CD games. I consider ProtectionID to be an information tool for W10 compatibility, it does not allow to circumvent anything afaik.
Nowadays, with activation technologies and DRM, things are cornier than ever legally speaking. I hope I pointed it all out right in my posts. Please feel free to edit them if something is inappropriate on THW's point of view. Better safe than sorry.
We are so very lucky Blizzard cares for his W10 customers, and removed copy protection years ago from most of its games, in order to allow official digital downloads. Alas, most other gaming companies do not care. In which case, you have to buy your game again, from GoG or Steam. pity really.
