What exactly dows it not for you? It ask for original disc, crash to desktop, ... ????

The patch does not work. When its outside of game directory, it starts up and says PRESS A KEY TO CONTINUE. Well, pressing a key makes it quit. When the crack is IN the game dir., it won't come up with that menu and do anything at all.

The game asks for a CD.

Are we to just magically know what patch you're talking about?

If it doesn't apply correctly it's probably because you're running some other version of the game. You're patched to v2.01, right?

My instructions above works for my up-to-date IWD2 from the Icewind Dale Ultimate Collection (EU).

Make sure the complied executable Crack201.exe is in the same Directory as IWD2.EXE. Also please ensure you are using the correct release and have applied the correct patch for your region.(german,russian,or US Canada)

I do not understand the instructions...


And to the other poster - its the US version of the game, and I applied the patch.

I can get the game to run with the CD but its not very convinient.

[Machina]

I disabled the option CLOSE ON EXIT for the .exe file and now I can read the message CANNOT EXECUTE.

I did everything right, and don't know why this is happening.

Maybe someone can crack it and send me the already cracked .exe?

Another year old thread resurrected!

Did you copy the infinitycracker.exe into the games directory? Have you tried the '--list' command and checked you have the relevant game/version installed? Have you tried supplying the filename of the game you want to crack? Did you read the 'Readme.txt'?

[TippeX]

lol how can it be infinity patching if its a byte patcher? ;p

[laboratominator]

it doesn't work on vista... the vista itself probably recognizes the program's purpose and function and closes it immediately... that's my best guess

i got the same problem as JohnnyRoberts and i use xp do you have any idea what i could do i really need to patch IWD 2

[TippeX]

then do it manually with a hex editor...

00026B20: 6A B0
00026B21: FF 01
00026B22: 68 C3

first part is file offset, 2nd column is the original byte pattern, third column is the byte to put in (overwrite)

so...

file offset 00026B20 -> change the 6A to B0
file offset 00026B21 -> change the FF to 01
file offset 00026B22 -> change the 68 to C3

which i think is effectively

mov al, 1
retn

either way, 3 bytes to patch, pretty simple

use hexworkshop (www.bpsoft.com) or something to edit the file
make sure OVERWRITE (press the ins key so the OVR part in the bottom status window is enabled)...

then edit -> goto -> enter the file offset (make sure HEX is selected)
click go

make sure the hex window left portion is where the cursor is and type in the replacment byte

repeat it for the 3 places you have to patch

hmm actually, its all one after each other

so just goto the first offset, make sure OVR is on (you may get a nag about this)
and enter the 3 bytes to replace (B0 01 C3) - you should see the original bytes too ( 6A FF 68 )

if you do NOT see those original bytes there, do NOT make the changes...

also, BACKUP the file you're editing, in case you make a mistake...

once done, file->save to save the changes you made...

[morgothr]

thank you so much.
that worked perfectly
