View Full Version : Arcanum 1.0.7.0 "tragedy"
Nothing in 19th update, again! I'm really worrided, here. Has everyone else lost hope, too? Can't anyone break this customized Securom protection? This is getting ridiculous...
------------------------------
Not anymore, baybe! This is old news thanx to some good people!

bump.. =)
...my head hurts from all the bumping...
This is downright disheartening...to see an annoying company such as Sierra release one of the first uncrackable protections. This situation is also a violation of the user agreement, as it states plain as day that the end user is entitled to one backup. It's needless to say that Sierra is interfering with my right to have a working backup and as a result legal action could theoretically be taken. To make matters worse this "new" Securom scheme renders the game unreadable in some DVD/CD drives...including mine. I need the crack in order to play a game that I purchased with my own money. Brilliant move,Sierra...dumbasses. Oh yeah, Playbackup or Unsecurom will not work for me...I have no idea why, as I have had ZERO problems with the 2 programs in the past.
What can I tell you... I can't belive this too. I know a guy that could uhmm, crack it... but he says that before he could be done (day or two, lazy bastard!) some other group will relase it. I guess we all have to wait...patiently... ... ... Arghhhhhhhhh!!!
ths scks fr eu!
The only thing left for us, poor, mortal, souls have to be keeping this topic on top, so that some looser, hacker decideds to try to prove himself at this....
Well, if they successfully crack the damn thing, they would definitely not be loosers in my book, but BIG winners.

Very Frustrated here:
I had to resort to not applying the latest patch in order to keep playing but now I left the damn prison island without getting the "special" glasses needed ... For some reason the boat captain will not take me back so I can kill/pick pocket the guy who has them on the island so I am in limbo until a new hacked exe is released...
HELP to any hacker for the cracked latest exe... Much Appreciation...
Thanks,

I gather the special glasses you need are the ones to show you how to get into the Dwaven mine.
You can get a pair of them in Ashbury. Go to the elvish #####r and you will see a story just above him that sells glasses. Talk to the merchant in there and he will make you a pair as long as you give him a kathorn crystal.
Luck to you.
Ok, so it's confirmed now that Arcanum 1.0.7.0 uses new version of secuROM protection. It's really worrying that no fix is relased yet. I guess Sony has made things more complicated now. This keeps things more interesting, at least.

Thanks for the help... I figured out how to build them (did exactly what you mentioned) but thanks for the assist...
Dont get so wound up on this. The new securom isnt much diffirent from the old, many crackers have indeed mastered it. Its still the same old generic method of unpacking these games (cdilla included) You will most certainly see a crack by someone who owns the game soon ;) Otherwise i would try it for ya <-- poor bitch who cant afford games

I really hope a new fixed exe will come out soon, the 1.0.7.0 patch came out ages ago. I bought a legal copy but still I have to crack it, pretty stupid if you ask me...
I can still play the old version but it has bugs, for example the lockpick master wont get out of his prison cell even if I open the cell so he can get out, he just stays in there and ask me to try and let him out...

You can make a backup of it, I did. Just used CloneCD for disk 2, and turned on all of the copying features like intelligent bad sectors etc, and put it at 1x speed. The backup CD works with the patch also.

That's cool but...
NOCD! NOCD! NOCD!
Don't click any of their stupid banners until we get the crack for Arcanum v1.0.7
It's not GCWs fault, unless someone has sent them a nocd patch and they're just sitting on it. Of course, they haven't put the official game patch from Sierra/Troika up, so there's no way to know how on-the-ball GCW is with Arcanum.
This usually happens with new protections... it's a waiting game until one surfaces

OK, you can stop holding yer breath!
Fairlight managed to crack it! I mailed the EXE + NFO to GCW! Just wait for it to get posted there! You can thank a nice guy called Manse for pointing out where I could get it ;)
You just need to install the English 1.0.6.4 to 1.0.7.0 Patch first and you're ready to ROCK!
I did a fresh install of Arcanum, FULL install, applied the patch + Fixed EXE and I'm happy to say it loaded! It also works as a No CD as it never asked me to insert one :)
DrA.
It will be online within the hour! Just uploading it to all mirrors.
tnx DrA!!!
Thank you, thank you, thank you!
I have been waiting for this for ages and was just about to give up hope! :P
Thanks for the Arcanum v1.0.7 crack. It is much appreciated. Gotta go play it now!
It's out! It's out! Praise the Fairlight !!!
I wish I could play it right away... "Pools of radiance 2" uninstall f*cked my Win98se. Almost everything form C:\Windows dir gone !!!
Thats one hell of uninstall !
Ah, time for new install anyway. XP this time...
I downloaded it from every possible mirror and there is a crc error in every single one of those files! Arrrrrrrrrrrghhh!!!!! :(
