Hi,

I still wonder if any crack or easy way has been released apart from unpluging Optical Drives from your PC to play King Kong Backup ?

Thanks

Dont be lazy! Search the forums!

usman
24-03-2006, 09:32
But still I know there is not another way. I will search the forum if an alternative has been suggested. Any help ?

ALL *.exe files r needed - just copy the files an paste to ur install dir - overwrite all old files (do not forget to backup the original files - in cause of a patch release) - that's all :D

It sounds like this crack does not bypass the loading of the kernel mode driver. So, while you can play without the disc, your system may be subject to the system issues that has caused the controversy over starforce.

woohoww.. starforce is history!!! but, but are there cracks for SCCT and POP:T2T... if reloaded crack these two games, they ownz..

dazzashazza
18-06-2006, 18:46
I'll be kind to you and answer your question sam, yes there is a fix for SCCT that has been recently added and i can confirm it works provided you upgrade your version of the game to v1.05. As for POP2T you can play with a fixed or mini image but as of yet i dont think there is a fix available . Reloaded seem to be cracking starforce games so keep an eye out.

I suggest you search the forums before making posts asking about cracks/fixes as the moderators will jump on you otherwise.

Hope this helps.;)

does this crack also work with the 3CD version???

i can start the game, but the only thing i can see is the first frame of the ubisoft intro - then my pc crashes and i must restart.

any solutions?

king kong is protected with SF Frontline (no Pro btw...) but the protect.exe is > 24 mb meaning there is tons of work.

youŽll always be able to play the game using the crack if you use sfclean.exe everytime you want to play cracked king kong.

Joe Forster/STA
19-06-2006, 08:59
Hmmm, labelling the crack as "internal" assumes quite a bit of naivity on Reloaded's end, I guess... ;) Oh well, people have a few months to play through the game without the CD/DVD, and then their machines will get infected with a new version of Starforce - because of the installation of another, newer game - that blacklists this crack anyway. ;) (Unless the publisher gives up Starforce and publishes an update with Starforce stripped off of it...)

Delacroix02
19-06-2006, 09:36
It will be upgraded, Joe. Either RELOADED themselves, or someone else is gonna finish this crack. They did a fine job nevertheless - and I don't see any naivity in their behavior. This crack was needed bad - that's why they released a "beta" - what else can you call an INTERNAL release? Give'em more time.

Here here Delacroix02 !

Maybe someone in Finland can "Finnish" the crack !!

Sorry couldnt resist and only joking, no offence intended.

MASSIVE thanks once again to the RELOADED team for cracking this terrific game ( which I have a 3 disc original of by the way ).

For the previous poster who asked about the 3 disc game not working, follow Grumpy's CD - DVD conversion and add a crack folder with the downloaded RELOADED crack, burn the game to DVD, install and drop the new cracked files into the program directory overwriting any files that it asks you to overwrite and play the game ! Piece of cake.

Enjoy ! ;)

It sounds like this crack does not bypass the loading of the kernel mode driver.I don't have that much knowledge of StarForce, but it works also without installing the SF-Drivers.

- i have installed the game
- copy in the crack, before first time start of the game (so the driver is not installed)
- i can play the game without any problems

19-06-2006, 14:28
in kingkong, the setup installs teh SF drivers during installation...
and not he first run.

thanx

I use the cd version and the game works fine. it should be something wrong in your computer

Delacroix02
20-06-2006, 04:55
The solution to NOT to install SF drivers with the game, is to:

- install the game
- copy over crack
- make a new installation with e.g. Inno Setup (only include game files and registry entries BEFORE launching game - do not run it)
- uninstall the game and the SF drivers
- use your new setup to install the game without SF drivers.

Did that with Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory - works 100%. I don't know about King Kong though.

cdkiller
20-06-2006, 08:18
king kong requires the sfdrv01.sys & sfhlp02.sys to start.
but the disc check is gone (sfsync3.sys).

scct was fully reversed and doesn´t need any drivers at all.

Hey I got a real problem here.
It is about the mouse in the game.
I instaled the game and apply the crack found on GCW but in the game when I start playing my mouse is sppining around and around.I don't know why but I can't control the view of my character.
Have anyone experience this problem?What Can I do???

Delacroix02
20-06-2006, 09:51
Thank you CDKiller, I didn't know that.
Godfather, unplug all Joypads & Joysticks - it's posted on official ubi.com support forum.

Read the forums and you will find the answers, this has already been discussed and sorted out in a thread for the godfather.

Delacroix02
21-06-2006, 09:53
Dazzashazza, keep such advice for youself. ESPECIALLY that I already explained it, nearly IMMEDIATELY. What is wrong with you, my posts are invisible?

21-06-2006, 13:05
whatever dela !

Delacroix02
21-06-2006, 13:14
Hope you're not mad at me - it's just that, I noticed that you seemed to attack Godfather because he didn't search through the forums thoroughly - take a look at his post count, and you'll see he's a beginner - beginners often have such problems, I had them too. He'll learn, you'll see. The most important thing is that his problem is solved. Did you see him reappear, complaining that the problem wasn't solved? I didn't. The final effect is what counts.

Returning to the topic, anyone tried to make this crack work with King Kong Gamers Edition, the 5GB deluxe thingy @Direct2Drive? I actually bought it, but the serial's valid only through a certain number of reinstallations and it's a nuissance, having the license renewed. It's also StarForce. Anyone wants to give it a shot?

There is no such patch. It is not needed. The game is nearly bug-free.

Ehm, for official updates, perhaps, you could go to the official site. Sounds logical, doesn't it?

Delacroix02
22-06-2006, 07:37
Yea, that's the general rule.

Or, to the publisher's technical support.

A little offtopic: did you guys notice that more and more Ubisoft's products require little or no updates? This includes: Prince of Persia series (only one mini patch for Sands of Time), King Kong...

Joe Forster/STA
22-06-2006, 08:33
Few updates from Ubisoft? They are probably busy with removing the last bits of Starforce-related shit from their sources and other development stuff... :D

Delacroix02
22-06-2006, 08:45
No, really. Some of their products are really the most bug-free games ever. Whereas others... well, let's see Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory for instance - four patches released so far (the most current version is - as we all know - 1.05) prove that this game was full of bugs and hell knows how many more bugs are yet to be discovered in this title.

dazzashazza
22-06-2006, 10:21
No not mad dela - i just occasionally post messages like that to see what kind of reaction i get !

Why be mad - its not like somebody's gonna pay a visit to my house and slit my throat is it now ? !! ( at least i hope not anyway - GULP !! )

Actually i owe The Godfather an apology as i think i misread his post mistaking his username for the game !! Apologies to the Godfather for that one.

As for him being a newbie etc , i agree with what you have said in your reply but the mods normally say you should read the forum rules whether its your first post or your thousandth !!.......right Joe ? ;)

No offense intended im just a troublemaker !!:p

Delacroix02
22-06-2006, 11:21
Hey - troublemakers actually often bring important matters to the staff's attention, so that these matters can be taken care of quickly. It's okay.

As for Godfather's problem... ah, sooo... OK, your mistake. Anyway, the problem GF had with King Kong is also present in SAS: Anti Terror Force, Russian Roulette II and a few other games. Strange though, because King Kong states to support joysticks and joypads.

As for the case of newbies - if their violation of the rules is just a minor offence (like not searching the forums), I believe the offenders should be treated reasonably, like this:

- check for sure, if the guy actually did break a rule
- advise politely, that he/she should read the rules, especially rule (XX)
(put a number of the rule you mean).
- in case of any aggression from the user, just ban the SOB for a week, so he/she can cool down.

If a major offence is made (like discussing warez), the person in question should be banned immediately, and ordered to read the rules.

As for slitting your throat... Not a bad idea, since I can be a psychopath at times. Just give me a few hours to find out where you live :-P

dazzashazza
22-06-2006, 11:47
Nice reply Dela :)

I whole heartedly agree with all that you typed and to be honest im not really a troublemaker. Having read many of your posts i believe you would make a firm but fair moderator and i feel the likes of Joe and a couple of the others could learn from you. Have a browse through some of their replies and you will see what i mean.

Whilst i agree that people should read the rules before posting and shouldnt discuss warez and piracy which i know could jeopardize the gamecopyworld site i do feel that many of the moderators are a little quick in banning or being harsh in their comments especially towards new members .

It's not really an issue with the mods they are only doing their best to protect the website and in the main are very helpful so best let it lie.

Have you found my address yet ? got a rolling pin waiting hehe....:p

Delacroix02
22-06-2006, 15:10
Well, to be honest, a computer-controlled plane is now flying full-speed towards your house. I mean, what the hell? If I am to commit a homicide, let there be some serious fireworks!

Seriously, thanks for backing me up on this one. I believe, that a warnings/infractions system would suffice. I would make it look like this:

- 3 infractions / warnings - temp ban (2 months)
- 4th infraction / warning - permanent ban

An infraction would disappear from the account after 1 month.
Which means if yu get 3 infractions in 3 months, once per month, you don't get banned. But hey, hey, hey! There are rules and RULES. Let's take a look at my idea of infraction degrees:

1. For first-time violation of rules #1, #2, #3, #7, #11, #12 - infraction level 2.
2. For second-time violation of the same rule (out of ones mentioned in point 1) - temp ban.
3. For third-time violation of the same rule - permanent ban.
4. For first-time violation of other rules - infraction level 1.
5. For second-time violation of other rules - infraction level 2.
6. Third-time violation of other rules leads to a temp-ban.
7. If an user had at least once received a temp-ban, he/she is rewarded with a permanent ban for breaking ANY rule even once.
8. If during temp-ban, a banned user harasses / spams / attacks a moderator in any way, the reward is a permanent ban.

Would implementing such a system be okay?

On the other hand, a promotion system could also be implemented. In the system I recommend, a "+" icon is located under the nick of every user. If this user's post has helped you in any way, you click the "+" icon and a dialog pops up, in which you have to explain, how this pos helped you. And this user gets a reward point! 10 reward points can lead to lowering the infraction level by 1. How's that?

Sorry for that offtopic, I just couldn't resist.

Joe Forster/STA
23-06-2006, 02:53
A complicated banning system should be automized which, in fact, needs to be supported by the bulletin board software. Is it? I don't think so. Also, I don't think I've ever been quick or unjust with banning; I might have been harsh a few times but, well, I'm also human... :o

By the way, the netiquette recommends that people should keep reading public forums for, at least, two weeks before they post in there. Guess why; to become familiar with what's allowed and what isn't and what to expect from senior forum members, moderators, administrators. With this in mind, even quick banning and harsh behavior may be justified (although that may not be a good idea, from a completely objective point of view).

Furthermore, the forum rules are very clear - I'm happy and proud that my recommended refinements and explanations have been added to them - and, with the big pop-up windows, you just can't miss them. So, is there any real reason to get annoyed when someone calls a newbie's attention to the fact that he made a mistake (e.g. not searching the forum) that is obviously a mistake, according to the obvious forum rules?! And I'm very sorry but, with real life around, most people, including the moderators, don't have time to explain everything, including the forum rules - what, where, how, why - again and again and again to everyone. In fact, it shouldn't be explained at all; people should grow up and understand that they need to educate themselves instead of expecting other people to educate them, especially when that educational service - e.g. this forum - is FREE!

Delacroix02
23-06-2006, 03:34
Well, your statement is just and I totally agree with you. With so much hassle required to add the features I mentioned, and amount of work required to maintain such service, it is an utopia, having it here. Well, I believe that I've never seen an unjust ban - although it is sometimes visible, that you guys are a bit too harsh. Anyway, just like you said, we are all human beings, and you have the right to lose patience sometimes. I think, that with such dedicated people and clearly explained rules, this forum is one of the most user-friendly forums I've ever been to. Just take a look at the user count - it's popular, isn't it? So, with all the good and bad sides, this forum is a verified, good service. And it's FREE! Cheers.

DABhand
23-06-2006, 06:52
Well you know say you just became a mod and went ban happy, now thats being harsh.

But after a number of weeks, you see the same crap, the same requests, the same questions (when they could have searched), the same advertisements, the same warez crap.

You would get a bit miffed and be harsh.

Joe Forster/STA
23-06-2006, 06:55
Well, to get annoyed and become harsh within a few days/weeks, because of the same crap pouring in all the time, you don't even have to be a moderator! ;)

Delacroix02
23-06-2006, 14:05
Uh-huh, I understand. Well, this might prove to be a problem. There is no official SDK for PoPWW and using any unofficial tools to modify the game files, even in good faith is a violation of EULA. So, the game will remain buggy.

acal3000
23-06-2006, 14:15
Yeah is very common on multiplataform games like POP released for several consoles to don't have too many SDk Tools or mods when are on Pc like PC only games

Delacroix02
23-06-2006, 14:18
So true. And without an official editing tool you cannot modify ANYTHING in the game, in any way, because it is a violation of EULA.

Yea, now I know very much. What is the error message? What version have you applied the crack to? For example it's not working with Polish version and 5GB High Res Edition.
