Contract JACK Image as No-CD

[orion98]

The official version of the game on two CDs has the protection of “Securom” and will not start without the original disc in your CD / DVD-ROM. This protection, of course, is hacked; in all Internet distributions there is a No-CD file.
No-CD is a “cracked” file of Lithtech.exe and the game starts normally with this file.
If it is important for someone to run the “clean” official version of the game without any “No-CD” there, they can use the Mini-image CD1, which contains a list of files and a copy of the Securom protection on CD1.
CD1 mini image does not contain game files, therefore its size in the archive is only 32Kb

Practical application of the Mini-CD1 image instead of “No-CD” has no advantages. In short .. it's for aesthetes. 
To use the CD1 Mini Image, you must install Alcohol 120 or Alcohol 52 or Daemon Tools to create a virtual CD-ROM drive.
All other programs for creating a virtual drive, such as UltraISO or HERO, etc., do not work with protected CDs.
