    Default RE: DC Sturmwind disc protection?

    Anyone out there trying to dump Sturmwind for DC? I found a topic on another board where the members are trying like hell to crack the protection, but so far they have been unsuccessful.

    You probably shouldn't link to that site dude, they have movies etc and possibly warez too.

    I am personally not interested in dumping fan made games. Just my 2 cents.

    I understand.

    But I've always wondered - what constitutes a fan made game, though? NG DEV TEAM seems to blur the line between fan-made games and professional games since they use a group of people to develop their titles, but people still dumped their games anyway. Is it because Sturmwind was developed by a single person that it's considered more fan-based than, say, Gunlord? I don't see the difference really. While searching the net, I noticed that some people are treating Sturmwind differently (i.e. refusing to dump it), but those same people were more than happy to dump NG DEV TEAM's stuff.

    Edit: Just trying to get more clarification, if possible. I definitely appreciate your response and stance on the topic.

    Everything unofficially made is fan-made (it does not matter if it's a single person or a team), Official retail games are licensed by Sega

    In fact I find it insulting that it would make a difference if a team produced something vs a single person producing something

    Most of my mods ect are solo projects

    The only exception that I can think of is maybe the very much now dead Bleem!cast, that is neither fan-made or licensed by Sega

    All emulators and homebrew for the Dreamcast is also fan-made but this is under a different licence that makes them free for everyone anyway

    Pretty much this.

    I condone the piracy of video games, by that I mean in the case of a dead system. This is a game I would choose to pay for given I had interest in the genre.

    Someone did copy the game:

    I couldn't find the iso so far anywhere.

    Read the above post, also please host your own images with a host without x rated images/links

    as for the images they are of the demo that can be found easy, in-fact we have that anyway
