Act of War. CD crack?

[TWRabat]

Not necessairly. The games are infact paid for. And Licenced for each individual game. But I dont expect anyone here to know much about the trade when making a comment.

Its a fine tip toed line when doing such things. If I spawn more copies then I have licences for, then yes. It is...but we have a key db system in place that issues keys to indivual games, if were out, were out. Simple as that. Only big pricks in town are Blizzard...and..there coding is way too complicated to even devle into for making a multi-system use diablo 2/starcraft/warcraft 3 set due to how they imbed the key's into the mpq files...

You'd have to hex it or run a scanner when you do an install and find out where the key sting is being entered into what mpq and what changes then create an app that can be fed a key database and imput a key from the database into the location(s) of the file while knowing what keys are in use.

But..that's too much work, and gone way too off topic.

Huzzah again for the useful hard working people, again.

Well man i duno but we have been waiting for more than 40 days and nothin... !!!
You said that you tried to crack it ,and it works but without online u mean u can play your crack in skirmish mode, if soo please dude can u give me the link of the file so i can look at it and help in fixing it to work online,
coz really am too ding for getting this crack !!!

The one I have is from GameCopyWorld...and it does infact work for 1.0 single player, but to do online you have to have 1.0b, so intill there is a resolve, there is nothing.

The way you originally posted it looked like you only bought the one copy and made multiple images over several PC's.


I actually ran a net cafe at one point, so yeah I know the score.

Using no-cd cracks is generally a breach of the EULA of the game, and so would probably not be the greatest thing to practice commercially... not that I don't see the usefullness of it or anything
Just my 3 cents (adjusted for inflation)

Does it really say you can't overwrite the game's exe in the EULA?
that's news...

could you quote that bit?

Yeah, this might be true..but if it REALLY peves them, they'll tell me not to do it and warn me about it, and thust far, nada. I just would enjoy using this methodology of bypassing stuff intill the disc emulation software catches up to current securom coding.

I kinda follow the "dag nabbit I paid out the yenyang for this stuff, and i'll be damed if you give me something I CANT USE...well if that turns to be the case, the...power that I am, chose to circumvent such trivial things.

Why on earth would you give a LAN center something that has copy protection on it when a large fraction of game centers around use virtual cd emulation.

I would perfer not to patch the exe, I realy would...but alas, Atari-cornholio gives me no choice, they wanna up their dirty weapons of war, well...two can play at that game, no?
