hijack, what has changed since the original release and the torrent link release?

I'm attempting to grab the torrent now.

[Fnatse]

I have exactly the same problem as anonym001. I'm using Windows 2000 SP3 if that's any help to you.

[anonym001]

I use Windows 2000 SP3, too.
There are no other errors.

I compiled the code myself and used the 2 compiled files in a second try, but there was no different;

Sorry for my bad English (original language is german)

--Ano

I have the same problem as the previous two posters. Win2k SP3 here also, so it probably is an OS related issue?

[Timber78]

It has to be an OS issue as I have Win2K SP3 and I get the 'Steam - Error, The Game is currently unavaliable. Please try again at an other time' message too. Poo, I have a damaged drive so I cannot play at ALL without a nocd, ah well here's hoping for a fix.

EDIT: Doh! What an ejit, I have SP4!

That NOCD v1.4 crack doesnt work.

I put all files in steam folder where steam.exe is and I get this error message when i launch hijack_hl2.exe:
Unknown CreateProcessA signature: 472D4A4C

This is so frustrating, i just want to play HL2 without the damn dvd!
Can someone tell me why that crack doesnt work??

Your version of CreateProcess is different than ours. What is your version of Windows? Could you send me your kernel32.dll?

[sabbey]

Other than on BitTorrent, where can one get the NOCD v1.4 patch?

I'm wondering if Valve can get wind of this NoCD hack on your machine or is this completely different.

As far as I am concerned, there's nothing illegal about it. We bought it legitimately and other users of the same software can play without a CD, whether they have a CD/DVD or not is irrelevant to most I think...

I have said it before and I'll say it again, if the companies want us to use the disc, stop taking away the rights we are entitled to (Backups) by using pirating as the justification. Until this changes I have no problem coming here and grabbing the patches, which is what they are, they aren't cracks unless you had downloaded it with the warez version of a game IMO.

[Ramona]

I found that No CD 1.4 via the above torrent link works with Win 2k only.
I found that No CD 1.0 via GCW only works with XP.

Hope that helps you out.

Hi, i've download the NoDVD Crack from GCW, it works correctly. But now the Sound is in English, but the hole text are still in my language (german). Is it possible to change the Sound Language? How?

Please Help...

about the Steam kills accounts - news:

Why am i reading everywhere bout steam hunting for nocd-crack users?
That's damned ****ing not true! Nonono!

for example /. says: "caught using a pirated version of the game, or have attempted to use a cdkey to bypass the securom protection found on the retail version of the game."

Any word about cd crack? Dont think so!
On steampowered board again not a single word about the cd crack.
Its all about those fake cdkeys used to play pirated versions of hl2 which are spread around p2p filesharing etc these days.

Or am i'm just silly? Didnt find anything about nocd-"crack" related to steam account shut downs..

btw: @hijack: great work. thank u very much!

[Dimensio]

I don't know what the latest crack on the torrent is, but I snagged it last night in the mid-afternoon (EST) and it worked on my WinXP machine then. Since it works, I won't be switching to a new one until the first patch is out and a new one is needed.

Also, I just checked and my account is still active. No bannination here.

I'm really wondering what kind of idiot warez freaks are playing a bootleg copy of the game via Steam, when the only warez release that I've seen bypasses Steam entirely anyway.

"This includes Credit Card fraud, theft of accounts you do not own and using cracked versions of Valve games." THE LETTER DOES POINT OUT USING CRACKS.....BUT FOR ME, I DON'T GIVE A !@#$....because I don't want to play cs......once this crap of a game is finished....it's un-installed and finished.
ok...it's only physically crap.....the game itself is cool though.....but it's still finished......why the loads still.....a far-cry from far-cry......play it again!
