Thank you! And would you happen to know if its on redump? For example, could it be http://redump.org/disc/34445/?

It's currently not on Redump. I was about to send it's information there but I noticed this issue detecting the copy protection.

No problem, I think I've figured out what's going on! Can you confirm that drvmgt and secdev are both 0 bytes?

Perfect! Feel free to ignore those files then, so just report it as being SafeDisc 4.00.000. I've updated BOS to account for the possibility of those files being 0 bytes, so I'll close this issue! Thank you for reporting this bug 😁

Hi, I just came across this project.

To the best of my awareness, Sonic Heroes (USA) is 04.00.01, not 04.00.00.

You can detect SafeDisc v2 and above by searching for the string BoG_ *90.0&!! Yy>
(42 6F 47 5F 20 2A 39 30 2E 30 26 21 21 20 20 59 79 3E).

This is usually found at offset 4052 in most EXEs, at the end of the padding after the NT Headers.
14 bytes after that signature, you will find the SafeDisc version, in Sonic Heroes' case, this is 04 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 01 00 00 00

Edit: Another reliable way of detecting SafeDisc V2+ is section names. They always seem to leave executable sections named stxt371 and stxt774.

Hello, thanks for the input but we already do those things if you take a look at the code. The BoG_ string is very well known, as are the section names.

Ah, I'm very tired, and didn't catch it, oopsie.
In any case, yeah, it's true, the US version of Heroes has an empty secdrv.sys and drvmgt.dll.

The Japanese PC version (extremely rare) has them non blank, and a SafeDisc version of 03.20.22, for reference
