Ah well, thanks anyway!

By the way, are you guys aware that Ecstatica is a DOS Game?! Does that mean cracking it will be hard?!

Hey Karthik,

Nope, actually, most DOS games are easier to crack than most Windows games... Back then, there were a couple of _very_ nasty custom protections for DOS games but I have the feeling (no, I could never crack any of them! ) that they were a lot less sophisticated than today's commercial protections for Windows games...

Hi Karthik,

Dunno who Digital Reality is. Also, while Hungary is not a large country, it's still 93.000 square kilometres. So... Seriously, they work in Budapest, I live and work in Budapest but that's all. And, no, I'm not interested in Haegemonia or other strategy games...

Joe

You mean you didn't read the 'readme.txt' file It goes in the same directory as the 'martian gothic.exe' file.

I just wanted to be sure cause I see most of the gfx file are in the data directory.
Dumb question but didn't anyone realize that Martian Gothic patch 3 was released?!
