Excellent BarryB! Is this your little way of saying "merry xmas"? ;-)

[BarryB]

Thanks for confirming the NoDVD hack worked, hope it works on the UK version when it's released!

[BarryB]

Has anyone seen the Vitality NoDVD, 321mb for a NoDVD

I think all they've done is rename the RESOURCE.000 to NODVD.VTY and make their crack look for it!

If a n00b like me can make a NoDVD without needing extra files, surely a 'scene' group can do the same

And it's not clever to 'hide' your cracks with modified UPX VTY

Hi guys,

Just finished my exams and thought might try out this great game.
But trying various methods for the last six hours still no luck. I will be very grateful if someone and get me through this.

CD tools installed:-
- Daemon Tools 4.08
- Nero 6

Here's what I can tell you.
1. Firstly I'm confused about which version I have (I got it from a friend)
But in the registry I have this,

[..] -> [PENDULO Studios] -> [RUNAWAY 2 - The dream of the turtle] -> [2.00.FRA]

Does that mean its the French version ?

2. The size crack I found in the crack folder tell me its the reloaded crack. (2.17MB)

3. Protection ID tells me this,

-=[ ProtectionID v5.2b ]=- (c) CdKiller & [x/xxx]
Build 16-11-2006....
> Ready

Scanning -> D:\RUNAWAY2\Runaway2.exe
File Type : Exe, Size : 3416064 (0342000h) Bytes
[!] Tages v5.5 (or higher) protected !
[!] protection level: Tages BASIC
- Scan Took : 0.734 Seconds

4. My PC config -

AMD X2 4400+
2 GB RAM
X1900 XT 512 MB
1 Liteon DVD ROM
1 Plextor DVD-RW
(I have latest ATI tools installed and running)

5. Now about the Problem:- I installed the game, copied and overwritten the original exe. But no matter whichever crack I apply I get this error :

(I have tried Reloaded/Vitality/Revolver cracks, all of them one by one)

Runaway2.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close.  We are sorry for the inconvenience.

And when I press Debug Visual Basic always gives me this error:

Unhandled Exception in Runaway.exe: 0xC0000005: Access Violation

and then it points to this instruction:

00415E2D   mov         edx,dword ptr [eax]

6. I have tried using a full image (made one with Alcohol) and used it with YASU 1.05. Never worked,
-Mounted the image
- Ran YASU 1.05
- Ran Runaway2.exe

it keeps asking:

Please Insert CD of "Runaway 2"

Its asking for a CD ?! I dont get it.
Did I get the steps right ?

7. I even tried it on another PC, with P-4 2.4GHz, 1 GB RAM, Raedon 9800 Pro.

- Same result with the image procedure, annoying insert CD message.
- With the cracks, the exe appears on the taskbar for a sec and then disappears.

Sorry to write such looong post. I tried to give out as much information as I could 'casue I really wanna play this game. Please help.

you should not find a crack dir on your dvd?

[mark84]

Well, I did.
He burnt the image on a DVD and gave it to me.
It was probably the Reloaded release.

Well maybe he renamed the folder. I don't know..

[mark84]

I read some more and i see that YASU is only for secuROM and shouldn't work with Tages which I have.

So the Reloaded crack is the only solution for me ? But why does it crash on both my PCs while others are playing just fine ?

thanks very much BarryB

can i just ask you what program (hex editor) did you use to fix the NoDVD
thanks

[BarryB]

I used HEdit Pro 2.1, but you can use Hexworkshop or any other Hex editopr really.

My NoDVD is now hosted on GCW now anyway:
