I would suggest Mediafire

Not sure when this was introduced, but, when you create a new image from the disk, choose 'DVD/CD master'. If that doesn't work, in 10.8 I also have the option to save as a 'hybrid image', which I think is an iso.

Firestarter FX; dl here: http://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/11417/firestarter-fx is free, copes with mixed mode CDs and produces .cue/.bin- pairs.
I´m using both MF and 4shared but I´m extensively renaming my files, not to mention those segmented and encrypted

Seems like most UL-services demand registration now or after a while and until a new reliable 5 star service is born, it´s a question of buckle up for the bumpy ride ahead…

You´re not telling which kind of CD-ROM you´re trying to copy; sessionburned, Multi- or Mixed-Mode, Hybrid with which sorts of different partitions… If Firestarter FX isn´t working for you try Disk Tool and make a 'CD-/DVD-Master' ie a .cdr-image. and check if your kind of multi-burned/-session is supported. And yes making a copy under 9 or older at low-level is the best bet, now that Apple is leaving HFS behind.

If you can find a lasting free UL provider w a upper limit of 600MB or more, which gives free access to anybody trying to download; then no, that´s not acceptable. Until theen we´ll have to hanker with whatever free provider there still is, I´m afraid.
HTH.

Thank you for buying the CD in order to upload it here. A number of us do this too, and I know that even a small message of thanks can mean a lot. Regarding your CD with separate game and audio partitions, I have dealt with this situation by making a bin-cue pair of files using Windows (Magic ISO or Ultra ISO are two windows programs I often use). Zipping the bin-cue files and then uploading to a file server such as RapidShare or Uploaded would be quite acceptable. I like bin-cue in these situations as it will allow anyone to burn a complete CD with both partitions using toast, without doing anything special.

@mathieudel
< edit > sorry, i thought iso's could handle "multi-track" disks. i'm wrong. However, do as previously mentioned and create bin cue files with something like Burn:

< /edit >
Disk Utility's interface has always been a bit "un-standard", in my experience(disabling journaling for example). Anyway, can you try the following process:
nb. I am referencing disk utility from 10.8.2. From what I can recall this process hasn't changed in the last few versions.
1. Open Disk Utility and insert StarFighter 3000 disk.
2. Select the StarFighter 3000 disk, not the partitions.
3. Open the 'File' menu and mouse over the 'New' menu item. Select 'Disk image from < insert device name here >'. Where < insert device name here > is the name of your cd/dvd drive.
4. In the 'Save As' dialog, choose where you want it saved and change the 'Image Format' option menu to 'DVD/CD Master'.

fingers crossed. good luck.

edit:
or terminal(http://macintoshhowto.com/cd-dvd-hd/how-to-create-a-disk-image-of-a-dvd-...)
1. Insert the DVD/CD into your drive.

2. Run the TERMINAL application (In your Appplications Utilities Folder)

You will get a little window with a prompt something this: Macintosh:~ wayne$

3.Type the following and then hit return:

drutil status

It will give you some info like this:

Vendor Product Rev
SONY DVD RW DW-U21A AADB

Type: DVD-R Name: /dev/disk2
Cur Write: 4x DVD Sessions: 1
Max Write: 4x DVD Tracks: 1

This is information about your DVD/CD drive and the important thing to notice is the name, it will be /dev/disk1 or /dev/disk2

4. If it is disk1 type this: (If the name is different (eg disk2) then just replace all the disk1 references with disk2.)

diskutil unmountDisk /dev/disk1

This will make the DVD icon disappear from the desktop.
5. Type the following:

dd if=/dev/disk1 of=~/Desktop/file.iso bs=2048
6. Wait about 10 or 20 minutes while it now makes an image of the CD/DVD onto your desktop.

When it’s finished it will give a message like this:

2170784+0 records in
2170784+0 records out
4445765632 bytes transferred in 1335.111379 secs (3329884 bytes/sec)

7. Type this to make the DVD reappear on the desktop and you are done:

diskutil mountDisk /dev/disk1

@mathieudel: 1st: I´m sorry if my previous choice of words sounds harsh/rough. I´m not trying to put you in place or something like that and I do not, like you, have the English language native.

2nd and the rest: no, I just couldn´t find the info your bought disk being a Mixed-Mode one.
Yes, as nil0bject very nicely explains above toy can choose the device rather than the volume/-s thus make a full copy. This was an option in older versions of Toast in older system on SCSI-devices, choosing 'Device Copy' rather than picking a volume. SCSI-Macs are BTW my personal reference of 'Old Macs' per se.
Yes, I do share your opinion on where the upload services tends to move. Into closed societies in order to have there things in order when next Multi-**ion Company is knocking on their door with a list of named files sharing at least three letters with some products of that company. As the latest witch hunts, and cermonies for immunitiy, includes the name of the stored files I do recommend to rename your personal files, encrypt when accepted and, yes, split large files. Not only to meet demands from uploading services but when used wisely (= spread over several storing services using fe 'Mirror Creator' or like that) it enhances chances in our favour.

Last and again: I try to share my experiences, how correct/viable they are today, in what means of communication I have. Also I´m as eager as anyone else to keep this and other communities afloat from what seems to be slowly sinking standards, rising demands of sharing identity on uploaders and encouraging an active seeking of long-term alternative/-s to those services as they once were. Nothing else…

try this out for uploading the files, if you're keen. i used it a while ago.

@mathieudel
I really appreciate all the work and money you've put into archiving this classic game.
This is what the main goal of the internet should be. A huge archive of data, knowledge and history. No one benefits from deleting the past. I owe you a beer.

Uploading to ubuntu one is a great idea! Perhaps a mass migration of macgarden data to that host is a good idea too?

mathieudel! This game is awesome!!! I have it running on a pink imac, 9.2.2, from the cd.
What's the easiest way for me to record some footage? Those cutscenes kick arse.

hmm, I spoke too soon. The frame rate is terrible, but I don't think it's the game's fault. I'm thinking that it accesses the CD a hell of a lot, but the ol imac drive can't keep up.
1. I'll try burning again at a slower speed
2. There's a possibilty a no-cd crack would help
I will look into both.

edit:
my ppc asm is a bit rusty, but what i think is that the app is trying to access the data files from the cd-rom device+'partition' number, not a directory path.
I think the issue with running it on your iBook G3, is that it probably has a cd/dvd combo drive, which is accessed via a different device path. Same issue with disk images.
I will try the virtual cd utility next when i get a chance.

I took you very seriously and setup an iphone/imac camera rig made of books
The videos are still uploading, but in an hour or so, check my channel:
http://www.youtube.com/user/nil0bject/

in landscape, rubber/silicon case for grip, leather wallet in front and a pair of scissors on the other side for stability(rofl, doubt the scissors were useful, but added a hint of danger to the project), all sitting on a cigar box and 2 books.

do you know of a way i can trick the iphone into thinking the audio out from the computer is actually a microphone, so i can get rid of the background noise?

Haha I can just imagine it! Wait till you hear my one; a wooden chair to support a shoe box and dictionary with a bedside lamp on top. On the lamp sits a breakfast bowl with blu-tack just on the inside with the ipod touch stuck to it facing the LCD screen lmao. Multiple times the lamp has fallen off the stack.. (Ive broken a bowl though the process haha)

Asides all of that its hard enough keeping it in place! I have to kneel on the floor while playing the games. As for the background noise, I try stay as quiet as possible. although you can still hear the computer humming.

yep, you are right.
i'm trying to find a function which is called before it checks for the cd.
I can then use macsbug to break at the function and then step through the assembly until i find the branch to error or continue.

the macsbug break command is:
atb < insert function name here >
to clear all breaks:
atc

I thought the no cd dialog might be drawn by one of the toolbox calls, like SetDialogItemText or GetNewDialog, but i've had no luck so far. I just need to break it near the cd check.

good sources for cracking apps are:

http://freaky.staticusers.net/

I've tried searching the the string, but I'm not entirely sure how the STR# resource works. The resource in question has 4 strings in it. Not sure how to reference the specific one.
