Prolly just a custom cd check, and the exe is SVKP protected so that you cant patch it easily. If you are good at reversing you could manually unpack it, shouldn't be too hard compared to safedisc, and just patch the CD check.

I think other companies used exe protectors before... I think Jowood had a Armadillo/Securom packed exe with custom checks in Chaser, but I can't remember... It was a long time ago...

I don't have Alcohol I ever installed trial version, now it's expired. I decided not buy it coz I use Daemon. Download new version of Alcohol (trial), install it, but it still says that my subscription has expired do'h

@DABhand
Ragnarok Battle is action side-scrolling offline game and it's very different with the online. Just like playing Street Fighter or Dragon Ball. There's so many combo. The game is good in graphic and sound but I stil don't know how to save

I know it is actually a free game, you can download from many Ragnarok site, but it's in Japanese. Since I don't understand, so I decide to buy it in my language. There's a guide book to use combo, and I got big poster also

Almost correct, Xtreme protector or xprot...very annoying, but once you killed the antidump you can play around...there's even tools that (in many cases) do this for you...its "bigbrother" Themida is the same pos...Chaser..what a piece of sh*t! Couldn't even install due to CP error,
but it worked after some "serious cleaning" ...returned to shop and will never by another JoW00t game

Nope, cuz it will probably have svkp+armadillo(meanest version)+sexxurom v10.XX.XX. and a ****load of custom stuff...if it comes with ONE CP and some real stable stuff (yes, that includes the installer) I might look in to it

Xtreme protector

I did some themida a while ago, and ****ing hated it. Chaser was a good game btw . Dunno why I liked it, but it kept me playing for a week.
