MechWarrior4 Inner Sphere Pack fixed exe? (C_DILLA)
 
MechWarrior4 Inner Sphere Pack fixed exe?

It is protected with Safedisk 1.50.020 but the Unsafedisk 1.5.5 can't unwrap it...

It also installs C_DILLA drivers in the C: directory

Thanks!

I would luv a no-cd patch for mw4 (v3) (inner sphere mechpac installed)

This is the second post on the topic - I am willing to try to make one but I have no real skillz but if there is a program \ tutorial that will point me in the right direction I will do my best.

BTW b00ls eYe I sent u an email about this I hope you can help.

TY

To bOOls eYe:

I already checked it with your Cleaner and Safedisk Analyser. Both report a Safedisk v1 1.50.020 but Unsafedisk 1.5.5 reports that there's an error trying to unwrap it.

There's an .icd file (3.5MB) which is the main packed executable and the mw4.exe file (366KB) which is the loader...

If you want i can upload both for you to check... (let me know where to send them)

Thanks...

I feel like a junkie waiting for a FIX....

GCS 09-07-2002 14:49

Test
 
I tried your unwraped CDAC21BA.DLL but there is no SCSHD.EXE file.

The file is SCSHD.CSA and SafeCleaner 1.03 reports that it isn't a PE (Protected Exe ?) file...

Still it doesn't work but i also suspect that my CD has a wrong name! Can anyone tell me the name of the Mechwarrior 4 Inner Sphere Pack CD?

Then i'll try again...

LBX 09-07-2002 15:16

...
 
the volumename is MECHPAKIS

thomast 09-07-2002 15:46

Here is what I have found from using the new 1.0.3
SCSHD.EXE file can be unwrap :)
CDAC21BA.DLL says that "SafeCast DLL's are not supported" :(

At least the new unwrap is better than 1.0.2 which crash when unwrap SCSHD.EXE

thomast 10-07-2002 03:36

Great bOOls eYe!

I eagerly awaits your next version update :)

Mech 4 mech Pak
 
Hi Guys has anyone one got the mechpak to work I get the game to run but no new mechs ??? any ideas would be a great help
THANKS.

Some help
 
SOME HELP

What about "Cdac14ba.dll"?

When execute the SCSHD.EXE in the dir. \cdset, installs on the HDD the necesary files, regiter data, and verifies the CD. If this is correct, you could access to the new mechs in the game.

When executed the MW4.EXE(Main program), looks for a file called "96740ede.dat" in the dir. C:\C_DILLA\SafeCast Product Licences\. Also looks for those strings on the windows register:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\C-DILLA]

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\C-DILLA\RTS]

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\C-DILLA\RTS\Licences]

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\C-DILLA\RTS\Licences\96740ede]

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\C-DILLA\RTS\Licences\96740ede\Net.Path]

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\C-DILLA\RTS\Licences\96740ede\Net.Config.A]

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\C-DILLA\RTS\Licences\96740ede\Net.Config.B]


I hope this info could help someone.

thomast 10-07-2002 11:25

I noticed after hitman14es's comments I checked my the services running my XP Pro I noticed C-DILLA is running as a service and there are many more entries of C-DILLA in my pc.. DAMN them for doing this.. heck some of the C-DILLA entries can't be deleted with regedit even after stopping the service. This is worse than securom or others... Microsoft is probably playing the game of Big Brother with us hahaha... :mad: :mad: :mad:

Mech4 mech pack
 
Yep I know it has been cracked but it still will not put the new mechs in the game both mech 4 and black knight they are lost somewhere he he or out to tea maybe. And one more thing when you are in the mechlab you have IFF and some other new things to pick for your mech but when you pick IFF it said you must buy MECH PAK INNER SPHERE to use these component I have tried just to install MECH4 and the MECHPAK but still no new mechs in the mechlab. hope this makes sense.


sending files now I sent most of the DIRS 10MB in all hope it helps :)

hitman14es 11-07-2002 09:24

More help
 
Hi guys!

@Bools eye
Yes, SCSHD.EXE, is called from the SETUP.EXE. First installs the map files, then open a DOS Window, apear an screen with a mech pack logo, and tells you that CD-ROOM is not good :( ... After you acept that, another screen tells you the game is correctly install :confused:, and the procces installation finished.

The MW4.EXE file in \Razor1911 dir, allows to play the game (With CD#2 inserted), but the new mech still miss.


@Lawman
Another mech component that appears in mechlab, is the "Enhaced optics". This feature will be avaible with the Clan Pack ;). I think the patch v3.0 who comes with the IS pack, adds the 4 mechs for the IS pack, extra weapon, extra electronics... and the same for the next Clan Pack.


Sorry for my poor english,:( , and... have a nice day.
:D

Maverick0984 11-07-2002 10:09

so what exactly did the addon change? cause i can't see a difference or the new mechs either....:(

bOOls eYe


Your email account is over quota.
so I can't send you the Files
any ideas ??
and thanks hitman14es good work. Hopefully with all the help we will crack this sucker
:)

Maverick0984 11-07-2002 12:07

how do i access the other mechs?

GCS 11-07-2002 14:24

The problem here is that the installer is checking the validity of the CD....

So when it discovers that the cd is a copy it doesn't install the license in the C_DILLA/SafeCast Product Licences...

I guess you need a 1:1 copy of the original CD to install the game first and then apply the Razor crack!

Maverick0984 11-07-2002 15:33

so its not going to work then?

I can host if needed but only if its a working no-cd patch :)

let me know the best way to contac you and then we can make arrangments from there.

thomast 12-07-2002 07:58

I thought you guys should know that there is a new crack in gamefix

http://gamefix.********/mech_warrior_4.htm

MechWarrior 4: Inner Sphere Mech Pak [1.2 MB] Fixed Executable
Fixed 15-06-2002 by Razor 1911


The file in it is just the normal 3.0 fixed exe for mw4 so don't bother, it didn't work in getting Inner Sphere to run.

TANKORR 13-07-2002 13:58

...
 
@ Thomast - I think there are two ver which still require the 2nd CD. I am hope a true no-cd patch will be produced.

LaWMaN 14-07-2002 02:02

MECH4 MECHPAk
 
Hi guys I got the ok to post softbeard link for the no cd mech4 and black knight

Go ahead, post the link. Sorry, I don't have any info on the mechpak.I
haven't really looked at the mechpack addon 'cause i'm not playing this game
lately. Note that there is apparently a multiplayer issue with BK and this
no-cd. This patch was intended as a single-player no-cd crack only.
Apparently there's a CRC check in multiplayer BK to make sure all the
mw4x.exe's in use are the same. It's something this crack does not address.
Just a warning.

http://members.rogers.com/ufeng/mw4&bk_pr1_nocd.zip


but no joy on the mechpak fix

bOOls eYe
I have sent you some files there are 7 of them can you let me know the ones that didnot make it. Sent some to both Emails
thanks

I can email you the .txt dump if u need it.

I get same error as well.

EXCEPTION : Attempt to read from address 0x00000100 in MW4! (+0x32CFD9)

B00ls eYe
same error for me
is the protection in the installing of the mechpak or the runing of the game :)

some more info

GCS 17-07-2002 10:35

The game doesn't require the CD to be in the drive after installation to work properly.

That means that the validity of the CD is checked during installation and if everything is ok it installs the license and writes the required registry entries....

So i guess that if someone can e-mail me the files that are installed in the C_DILLA directory and the registry settings it MAY work with Razor's fixed exe...

thomast 17-07-2002 10:43

GCS, I maybe a bit paranoid but I don't like having worthless "unknown" service running in my pc, the darn mech IS pak given me C-DillaCdaC11ba service running at start up in my XP Pro. Whats worse :mad: :mad: :mad: I can't even delete its entry in registry but only stop it from running at start up. Even if you uninstall the mech is pak the service will STILL be there.

hitman14es 17-07-2002 10:49

Another problem
 
@GCS
In the C-DILLA dir, only one file: 96740ede.dat
In the windows register... nothing :(

If you use the same serial number, you are not able to play a multiplayer game with other player who has the same number.

Someone could make a key-gen for the Setup.exe installer of IS pack? :D

This is a MW4:BK League board so all members are experienced onliners, although none use a No-CD Patch as Multiplayer WILL NOT CONNECT.

thomast 17-07-2002 11:38

bOOls eYe I tried your steps for both burning into cdr and image mount using deamon both didn't help but on the good side I noticed that after I install the mech IS pak it didn't recreate the damn c-dilla dir in c:. Also the game would not auto run straight after install which it always does and ask you for valid cd. So I guess the cd check must be disabled partially or fully.

Now after reading http://pub16.ezboard.com/fslamechwar...icID=139.topic I wonder if the update to 3.0 which we had installed could have cause the problem this time around since all new patches/updates will install the damn c-dilla.

I wonder if its the leftover pesky C-DillaCdaC11ba in the registry which is causing problems??? hmm...

Enuf of my rumbling, you did your best bOOls eYe....
