FOT useing no cd

[Bunny]

is it possible to run and play FOT without a cd?

on my quuest to get fot working i found a old old cd which has the files on CD1 on it, but in installed form

im now trying to install FOT by useing the messed cd till it gets to 3% compolete, then has an error, but it asks for cd 2 and 3 to continue

so i am continuing to do so, but when its done im going to take the files off my cd that i found and put them where cd 1 files should of been installed

but now im worring if when i do get it all worked out hopefully, that cd 1 that i havnt burnt, which is a complete disater of a cd, will not be able to play off of it, but seeing as i will have the complete game on my system, that there would be a way to run and play FOT without havntg to use a cd

i would buy off amazon but i am 16 and dont have a credit card

anyway after all this long boring typing the main question i have here is:

is it possible to run and play FOT without a cd?

thank you in advance

its technically illegal to cuircumvent the cd-protection but its also technically illegal for the developers to put in the protection as its preventing the consumer from performing a legal right (backing up cds for personal use) so i'll answer anyway:
go to www.gamcopyworld.com or www.gameburnworld.com for a no-cd crack.

Umm once you've gotten the game installed you can run it with either cd 2 or cd 3, you only need cd1 for the installation. Which is lucky for me as I've split my cd1.

No-cd cracks are not illegal, as long as you control and remain the sole owner of the original disks.

I'm pretty sure they are illegal, even if you do own the CD as you are breaking copyright methods.

You may be getting confused with CD backups.

Via the magic of Google:

Legality

While the distribution of cracks is probably illegal under anti-circumvention legislation such as the DMCA, serials are in some ways a different case, being neither an "effective" copy prevention mechanism nor copyrightable themselves. Usually, however, ISPs simply do not want to be associated with the warez scene and quickly give in to threats by the BSA and other bad guys. The software which is traded on file sharing networks frequently comes with serials and/or cracks.

So, the answer seems to be "probably".

It's not something you are likely to be prosecuted for, especially if you have the original CD, but that doesn't make it legal.
