Hello,

many of the games mentioned here are StarForce 3.x hence targeting v3 of the
protection scheme - even if it's a bit too late now as the bug kept growing and
growing.

The chances are slim to get this working in foreseeable future but version
splitting might be useful (consistent with other copy protection schemes where
different major versions work with Wine).

I copied a list of SF v3 games for convenience:
