The Other Way What I Have Done Is Created An SFX File In WINRAR.
Compacted It Down To 1.55GB.

All You Have To Do Is DOUBLE Click On The *.EXE File And Select The Installed Directory..

Hiya,
You might want to try turning on the solid option in WinRar, & this should get the filesize down a little, but I suspect not enought. UHARC should also get it down some more.

bah all you need to do is invent your own package tool that will package anything to the size of aprox 5mb no matter the original size. By doing that you will achieve the following:
making cracks easier to put up in GCW
get famous
get money money money
respect!



guess this one won't hit GCW.

The full "crack" will not be posted for obvious reasons... It just costs too much to host these kinds of files, even for a short period! We just do not have unlimited server resources (=bandwidth) to handle these kinds of files

a partial archive (excluding the mod dir which is over 2GB) has been added but I do not expect it to work

You could also have a look at 7zip, it produces rather small files, even the SFX archives won't take up as much space as RAR archives would
It's worth i try, i guess

Hmm..

Okay I'm Going To Try To See If I Can Shrink To It As Small As Possible.
Will Post Results.

If Small Enough Will Post It GCW. :-)

[kosmiq]

Honestly I don't think it will be possible to shrink it enough without more editing of the files themselves.

[mojo8850]

Ok..

Guys This Is Wat I Have Done Tried To Zip It File Too Big..
Tried The IEXPRESS In Windows Only Does Files..

I Have Used WINRAR Dropped It Down To 1.55GB Created A Backup Of The Game. Uncompressed The GAME Came To 5.6GB I Think.

Now It Only 4.29GB..

[leezer3]

While that was a very intelligent post I suspect that as the files appear to have been heavily decrypted then there will be no real hex similarities between them. Someone will have to try it though.......

Hi! "mojo8850", i doesn't have the crack files otherwise i try it myself.
Use RTPatch pro software to do it,

Make a full install from original game and copy, save the full original install folder under "oldsystem" in a temp folder on C or D drive, now update the original game to 1.1 US, copy all crack folder and files (1.5 go) over original files, test if the crack work proper (play some time) close the game and launch "RTPatch" "build wizard" indicate them the "oldsystem" directory, the "updated directory", apply inclued dll, make partial patch, make some personnal settings about text, icons, search option of install directory, "make a .exe", etc...and launch "Make a patch" their will now make with compare files mode, a "patch file" their only contain hex differences, it give at last a short patch file, now this need some time and you can go drink some coffee's and slip one night by some computers. After have make the "patch file", clic make.exe, 30 secondes are now needet and you have a final exe patch file theire probably use maximum 30 mbt's to convert original US files to cracked US files.

Hope someone anderstand my poor english and make a test patch. thanks to all's. good luck from france.

And, if you want a FREE, multi-platform patching system, use xdelta. I found it when I disassembled official updates for the game called The Thing.

Hi folks,it does not work with the small file from GCW !

[dede]

Hi! first a good news, if you don't have a US game, you can update your UK game with UK 1.2 update & apply the 1.5 gig's US crack, i tested and that work.

Bad news, it's not possible to make the folders & files crack assortment shorter as 1.6 gig's all files are added files & not converted files.

But, you all have this files already on your cd's or dvd's they are probably archived in the ***.dat & in the false ****.iso files, with an compression mode, the problem is how to extract it from theire to copy it in game folder.

If someone found how to extract their, only a extraction tool are needet & not 1.5 gig's of stuff.

[HellasVagabond]

Bottom line the Starfoce guys outsmarted the entire gaming-cracking community

[Joe Forster/STA]

Perhaps, in the short run, that is...
