Thanks for the tips, but im not very experienced with burning any type of dvd pc games. If by any chance you can describe step by step how to burn the dvd version of the sims 2, that would be greatly appreciated. Thanks again!

hi i am new to this forum and recently downloaded sims2 from BT.
I assume you mean BitTorrent? Please expect no help from anyone who knows, as we buy our games so as to support the game makers and help them continue to supply us with PC platform titles. If you have purchased it legitamately, please correct me.

If you want to burn the DVD version, you'll need Clone CD, or Blindwrite, which is Nephilims forte. With Alcohol you can image the disc, there is no need for settings as Alcohols default will take over with DVD. But you'll only be able to image it and then play via Virtual Drive. Alcohol is only able to do this with Safedisc protected DVD's.

I already downloaded blindwrite 5, so i make the image on Alcohol 120, and then use blindwrite to burn it to a dvd? If so will it work?

Lol, here I am! :P
Here's the link for BW Tweaker:
http://www.aray-software.com/
Under the General Settings tab leave all four selections at the top left unchecked, set the max read speed to 1X, Write Speed DVD to 1X and change nothing else.
Under Topology tab for "Writing Topology" select Do Not Write Topology, for "Topology Method" change nothing and for "Read Topology" select Never Extract.
Under Advance Settings change nothing.
Once all the settings are in order you can click "Run BlindWrite" and it should launch with the new settings.
One thing to keep in mind is that BlindWrite5 has a tough time with SafeDisc 3.20.022 - try as I might I never could get it to make a working copy of Doom3 and I've heard I'm not alone - but if I remember correctly there was another user here that was successful with the settings I just listed. I'd recommend using an RW to start off and if those settings don't work try knocking the write speed down to .05X.
Good luck :)

Ok, I'm officially confused. You can't read an empty disc.

Never mind. Stupid question! Disregard it. So if i do this and i run blindwrite, to copy the dvd version of the sims 2 (using the copy software in blindwrite5) will it come out good, meaning it will work like the original? Thanks so much!

@ mr_me
Too bad. You should've bought the game. No asking for cracks, serials or patches per forum rules.
@ agentcar
There's nothing guaranteed when it comes to backing up these newer protections but with the settings I gave and and a capable burner you stand a damn good chance of cranking out a good working copy. What make/model DVD burner are you using?

That means it's a poor copy. Even some of the shoddiest copies will install, it's running the game that defines success or not.
What make/model burner are you using?
What read and write speeds did you select?
