    Introducing DiscCheckEmu (DCE)

    It is possible. If you look closely at the CD pic, the ring that is on mine is missing. Don't worry, I have a set of VMs for reverse engineering old DRMs and malware (like the one I used in my techincal papers). Interesting, thank you very much for sharing these info! Now I'm just missing a...

    Introducing DiscCheckEmu (DCE)

    Introducing DiscCheckEmu (DCE)

    That's why I suggested (not on this forum) to put a comment at the top of the config file specifing the exact ISBN of the target game! This should be enoug to avoid this kind of problems. But yeah, someone still have to manage a repository, that's 100% correct! Uhm, IIRC _inmm.dll is for audio...

    Introducing DiscCheckEmu (DCE)

    YAY :D Hey, thanks for your feedback. Well, I agree that writing a DCEConfig file requires some technical knowlegde. This could be solved by having a repository where storing DCEConfig files (without any other binary file or copyrighted stuff): that way the only required thing is having the...
