Go back and try again, you may have replaced the wrong "icon".
Save what you take out, you may have to put it back.

I don't have the sim but I just downloaded the patch from here.
It seems to be similar to the one for FS9, all you do is look for the one (in the main folder) that looks like the downloaded one and take out the one in the main folder (save it somewhere) and replace it with the downloaded one.
They both can't be in there at the same time.

You may have to reinstall if it became mixed up.

Let us know how you do.

Hello RadarMan:
I had to post as a guest since my membership is being validated again (had to sign up as new again) - Just curious - will the "No CD Key/Crack for CFS 3 work on my CFS 2? I can't find one for 2 anywhere on Internet. On this website I find one for the original CFS and CFS 3, but not CFS 2. I imagine that they all use a similar programming scheme to check for the CD, but want to make sure before I install either one.
Thanx,
FresnoAce

RadarMan-- We've had, ahem, disagreement on other topics in the past... but this one is no issue, in my view: If we buy the software, we should be able to run it without the damned disk. Period, dot.

Well done on the crack code for CFS3. You and CRJ are my heroes.

Cheers.

Very Happy I think we all agree that since we bought it legally we have the right to use it as we may, the crack saves time and trouble. Not considering the constant wear and tear on the CD drive itself.
Long live the NO-CD Crack developers.

The main folder, root folder.
NO-CD cracks usually look like the original .exe in there.

I can't tell you the exact name of it since I don't have it.

Go to Microsoft games and the folder that is CFS? 1, 2 or 3 that's the main folder.
The one that holds everything. You'll have many folders in it and below will be the exe that you want to exchange.
