Sometimes the original game forgets that I use subtitles and AA but I have no idea why it does, perhaps that's what happens here?

EDIT: Oh right it also saves to a protected folder location by default so if you use UAC run it as administrator or it won't be able to save the info properly.
(Settings.txt in \Appdata\Local\Ubisoft or something like that.)

Well, who doesn't start his games as administrator these days? I mean, come on, it's common since Vista and everyone with W7 should already know that. Let the nuke wars begin because of something everybody should have been aware of. Rolling Eyes

It's been like that since early Vista builds leaked but it still seems to be a common error, most games do start and function but can behave oddly as some locations they try to access will be restricted, works better in W7 than it did with Vista though.
(Most titles will prompt and require access when needed by now as well.)

(Similarly to people wondering about missing D3D9_42.dll or something indicating the DirectX redist being out of date and that's been updated on a near monthly to tri-monthly basis since Windows XP DirectX 9 days.)

updated to v1.1 etc as per instruction and running windows vista ultimate x644

Sad


Turn the application experience service you disabled back on, you'll be able to overwrite files properly after an install without waiting 5-30 minutes.

I never turned anything off?
where do i find application experience?

oh this error its DATA EXECUTION PREVENTION fuckery

go to START>Control Panel>SYSTEM>ADVANCE system Settings>*in the Perfomance tab click*Settings>go to DATA EXECUTION PREVENTION> select"turn on DEP for all programs and services except those i select"> then press ADD> select the game exe> click apply >start game

thats how you turn off DRM of windows

Nice job by Skidrow. Didn't expect from them to be so creative especially after SH5. Now UBI soft has to crack their solidshield to find holes of their own protection.

I hope that someone will finally crack Boundle's head (or we all fucking then)

Didnt ubisoft use solidshield on some of their games? Well, maybe they will pay the solidshield dev's to check out the crack.

Regardless, skidrow did an amazing job Very Happy

Officially cracked Ubisoft, where' the patch? Congrats to Skidrow.

Although with all the self-sucking Reloaded has been doing about cracking SolidShield, idky they bothered trying to protect it Razz

First thing I thought when I read that was "Is this a challenge for Reloaded to crack and distribute?"

Interesting method to crack the launcher but won't it cause problems for future titles?
(Separate DLL files for each crack due to differences with the protection and that sort of thing, launcher update is another issue but not a real problem if you block it somehow.)

game works fine and saves locally apparently, no problem with configuration either.

didn't even use the launcher, played the first mission and it saved, i quit and reloaded all fine.

is the launcher actually required to finish the game?

i mean, do i have to launch the launcher or just launch the game normally?

just for info sake.

thanks. Question

Ubisoft has just updated their launcher (I got a legit copy) but It doesn't seem to affect the Skidrow crack (just tried it with my legit copy), the only stuff that can't be unlocked with the crack is:
3 Templar Lairs (Black Edition)
Auditore Family Crypt
Extra set of Throwing Knives
Altair Outfit
Assassin's Creed II Wallpaper pack

But Imho the game is still filled with fun stuff to do Smile
Maybe Skidrow figures out a way to unlock everything.

Did Ubisoft's DRM Get Cracked?

Quote:
According to a report on CNET (thanks Blue's News), Ubisoft's DRM has been hacked. Skid Row, the group responsible, claim that the hack removes the DRM completely. It requires a download and install of a modified version of the game's executables. According to Skid Row, their methods have been safeguarded against reverse-engineering in order to ward off competing hacking groups and Ubisoft. The following note was included in the Readme file to Ubisoft:

"Thank you Ubisoft, this was quiete [sic] a challenge for us, but nothing stops the leading force from doing what we do. Next time focus on the game and not on the DRM. It was probably horrible for all legit users. We just make their lifes [sic] easier."
So far I haven't found anything that indicates the story is false.

No it can't. You HAVE to have a LEGIT Uplay key registered. AND a LEGIT Black Edition Unlock code tied to your Uplay account.

But, maybe some cracker group figures out a way to unlock it without Uplay

The savegame or profile data or whatever it is (Ties to the savegame?) that was posted earlier was supposed to unlock the extra data, unsure if it all works correctly but from other posts the areas can be played trough without any glitches or problems. Smile
(It's a sort of savegame so should work with both Skidrow and Emulator "cracks" I guess.)
