They save a lot of wear-and-tear on your installer disc I can tell you that much.

What I'd like to know is if this a 1.4 patch?  Has anyone ever seen a Ghost Recon No-CD patched for version 1.4?

Just download the no cd file and mount it Expander or Disc Copy and then you can start Ghost Recon without using the GR CD!

Nice. This will solve a problem I have when booting into os9 with the Ghr. cd in.
Hallalouya.!!

it's not a mod but a disc image I believe (or a fake one)... expand the download and launch it - it mounts on your desktop.  of course when you reboot you have to relaunch it.    i say it's sort of like a fake disc image because well you can make an image for your whole GR cd but that's over 600 mb, and this little puppy is only 1mb.

Yes, this opens dramatically faster than the full-game disk image.

Sturm: Next time you open a big disk image, press skip. It is only verification that takes time. Just press skip.

Thnx Acri, but in this case the speed of opening the No-CD image is only the icing on the cake of having 600+ MBs of extra hard-drive space because you don't need to copy the disk image off your CD onto your desk-top and you don't need the CD in your drive (people have died in cbs because their disk ejected).  I appreciate the heads up though!

Sturm the GhR CD image here at *DAMN is only a fake CD image. It is 1.4MB large not 600!!!

I know that Mauti.  Hehe I was (unsuccessfully) trying to express this fact and state why the no-cd is better than the full image or CD itself for quick launch.  Thanks for the helping hand my man--there wil be a little something extra in your pay check this week.
