Hi! In the last months i have come to realise that the achohol 120% and fake image way spreads as a solution to the backing-up games problem while the traditional no-cd(dvd) fixed exe is fading out. That makes me wonder... why do people want to make their lives harder with all that images, programs that work only in MS windows systems and stuff? Have all the crackers like deviance died or been been arrested or something? I guess not because recently they released a crack for quake 4 (old traditional fixed *.exe) which by the way has the same protection system like civ 4 (for which a crack hasn' t been released but that bloody image stuff again). Someone would say that new systems are tougher and perhaps unbreakable(but i dont think so as i explained above). I invite a cracker to state his opinion about his matter here(or in another post if he thinks suitable) and/or explain why the this systems are so tough to be cracked, the differences with older systems and the exaxt spot that he/she finds difficulties, even post related assembly code. Some of us would listen and undestand or even be able to help. But i think thats just not the case. Imo, the case is that most people are confortable with that new way since they just want their games to play in their personal computer at home and they dont care furthermore. Am I correct? Someone with knowledge in the matter answer me plz.
