Before I start I'd like to say, I know rule 6 and I am NOT asking for a crack.

I was just wondering about making cracks. From what I know it should be easier to crack the game after a patch because you're already half way there because most of the code is the same, am I correct?

nope, you arent, a patch could bring along new protection portions, new vm code, new 'hidden' instructions and so on, that and the game code will be updated, so while some parts might 'look' similar, they may/may not be, sometimes though you can get lucky where the exe is compiled in the same way.. where new code just displaces the old code, so the bytes you're looking for are a 'little bit' further down from where they should be etc.. really depends on the compiler and the protection settings...

a better result could be obtained from comparing the same version of the executable, against one wrapped with a different protection, which can give you an insight into what the protection is doing..

This depends on how many percent of the previous crack was manual work. If a lot, a new crack will take a lot of time again.

fake
the update is still uncracked. i doubt any group will spend time on it yet as it is quite buggy and still needs lots of patches to be really playable.

This is referring to the automatic update feature that Gothic 3 has. But it's probably not real anyway. Virus makers know how desperate people are for this kind of crack.
