Silent Hunter 3 Idea how to crack Patch 1.1

[karlmueller]

OK, I have tried this out now. Here is the result:

1. It is possible to convert the retail version to the download version by swapping five files:

missionengine.dll
simdata.dll
sh3.dll
sh3.exe
utils.dll

2. The Problem is that the so generated download-version includes a kind of StarForce wich wants to be activated online with a serial number (the retail serial dosn't work). So it is impossible to run those download-version if you don't have a online version key and of course you won't have one if you don't have bought the download version. The one and only solution would be a keygen for this download version but firstly I don't think that it is possible to do keygen for starforce and secondly this is against the board rules.

So in the end there is no sense in converting retails to download-versions!!!

Lets hope that RELOADED will release a working crack soon!!!
