Darkstar One 1.3 Patch NoCD

[BarryB]

I think a few files are needed from the Russian version. The 1.3 Activemark patch checks these files (as I think every version does):

WalPlugSpace.wex
WalPostFilter.wex

So if you use a cracked AM 1.3 version on the English Tages 1.3 patch you have to replace those 2 files from the AM patch or you get those funny blurry graphics or silly messages appearing on button text.

Just wondering if someone with the Russian version can try the Russian crack + those 2 files from the Russian version on a 1.3 patched English version and see if the 'FADE' effect goes away.

Kind of late, but i want to confirm - cracked exe for v1.3 do NOT work on russian version of darkstar one. Problem is the same - game graphic start to blur more and more... I just tried the english version today, then brought russian one from local store. Actually a have thought that this is not protection bug, but then i used the original .exe and the game runs just fine.

Hey, thanks Rakshas. The extra effort you made is much appreciated! We should probably have that 1.3 crack entirely removed from GCW, since it seems that it doesn't work with any localization of the game.

A little bit offtopic , but maybe useful:

Afaik only method for v1.3 to preserve your original:

- install DT 3.41 (other 3.4x versions may also work, but NOT v4.x versions using SPTD)
- remove other virtual drives
- mount mini image with DT 3.41
- cloak drives with Y.A.S.U.
