trying to do it myself
 

Hi everyone ,

its my first post here on the forum , i only been to the main site of gamecopyworld before for the past year , but its a good site with very appreciated cracks that make the life of a gamer alot easier .

i just read how ppl keep asking on the forum for the BFV 1.01 crack , my post is about it kinda . I looked on the site for the crack , wasnt out yet , no biggy , eventhough i dont like changing CDs everythime i have to play , i can live with it for a while . Now i like to try out different thigns , and i thought lets try to crack it myself , my guess is that you need to know assembly for that , i know some basic assembly , but havent really used it for anything yet , so i looked how the 1.0 version was cracked by comparing the cracked and uncracked version of the exe . This way i hexed edited the offsets of the 1.01 , and it worked ( credits go of course to the person who managed to crack the 1.0 version ) , i was happy since it didnt ask me for a CD anymore , but , i got kicked back to the desktop. i remembered with the old crack , that it had an edited mod.dll also , i looked into the new mod.dll , and the old cracked one , old one is 4kb , new one is 900kb , so i am kind of confused about how to do that one . i wondered if an experienced cracker could help me out on this one .

i read the rules first to make sure its allright to post about this , but if its not ok please delete the post , also i read somethign about a 2 week rule in another 1.01 post , means that there wont be a crack within 2 weeks ?

thx for the help :)
and keep up the good work

first something to the 2 weeks WAITING rule!
if a patch or a game is released for 2 weeks and there is still no crack you may ask where a crack can be found or request a crack if there isn't 1. BUT: some games are protected with starforce v3
a non generetic protection which takes long to be cracked so none of the members is able to tell you when a crack will be released for sf3 protected games.

now to your selfmade crack!! don't be mad at me, but it can't be, that the cd-checks are at the same offset(s) as in the 1.0 exe.
so you cracked a 1.0 exe again.. lol..(the main executable wasn't changed with patch 1.01) the mod.dll is probably protected with safedisc?!

ok i know what you mean with the 2 weeks rule now :) .

i didnt change the exact same offsets , but i looked at what was changed , and look for the same hex values in the new 1.01 exe and changed them to the same as in the crack one .

about the mod.dll i have no clue cause i have no experience in that :confused:

hui very nice;) safedisc is one of the commercial protections which can be easily cracked by cracking groups, but trust me you won't mess with that kinda stuff;)

mod.dll? Seems to be Battlefield 1942, last expansionpack, and yes, it uses Safedisc ( like every EA title)

Respecting SF ( Starforce), well, every game have its own code, so must be restored in different ways for every SF protected title. Thats what it last a lot to be released.

Anyway, thats is fun for some people ( including me).
I think that will be solved soon.

Good luck!
