Thats not true, to create fully decrypted exe/dll/datafiles you need to understand the VM _FULLY_ not just some crc opcodes and rerouting some ops to "hooked" ones just to bypass cdcheck, Ultima way is easiest way possible for sf cracking. To make a full crack you need a logger, so log everything, means bylass all crc-checks, under ring3 and ring0, solve many maaany tricks used in the vm and so on, then analyse the logs, get the original code, rewrite the stolen opcodes into the exe/dlls, play the game entirely to get all protected data files - so please dont tell me which way requires a "god" Wink


You've no idea how the ULT cracks work methinks, and I find the idea that RLD, etc, would rather spend weeks working on a release the extremely slow and painful way than use this so called easy method hilarious dude Smile

Maybe because ULT cracks are not working after driver update - full cracks work to this day since they were released. Oh and I know how ULT cracks work.

Fair point but they still have done cracks scene groups couldn't Smile

Glad you know how they work, you know more about them than RLD who insist on calling them 'loaders' Smile

read Vengeance and Reloaded theire nfo they said under current scene rules ,with game cracks the commercial protection must be totaly removed. while this is absolute not the case with Ultima cracks .. thats why no other scene group have created this kind of crack . its not an clean crack 1its not nocd , 2 ugly sf driver still intact..
even though would be better if more groups created cracks like this better then no crack at all.

Best hope that attitude changes or there will simply be no cracks in the future as the protections strengthen further Sad

Anyway this is OT, sorry mods Smile

Your abit right with exe [even i prefer dll Smile for some to you known reasons] is harder but not that much as you have to fuck al ring3 and ringo crcs too doing it the dll way and hey Smile dont tell me about many tricks in VM you have to bypass them once too. The advantage dll way has is you do it once and can use the same patching for all versions with same vm/drivers. But to be true you allways need to remove drivers after update and add the ingame delivered ones.

Sorry mate but do you really believe that Vengeance and Reloaded were able to release Xpand Rally and Colin 2005 but said: "We will not crack it this way, we will skip these two"? Especially look at Colin and Codemasters. Do you think they would skip that title? No, they would do it any way, only to release such a known title. So what is Vengeance and Reloaded if they couldn't understand the way Xpand was cracked and use it on other titles (for example Colin)? Are these two reliable to describe "scene rules"?

Do you suggest that ULTiMA can crack any Star force version but will not do it for the scene anymore? If that's true then for whom they might be working? Competition (Safe disc, Secu rom)?

Vengeance not but Reloaded might..not sure..but Ultima is absolute not the only group that can create such an driver sf3 crack .FLT and IMS where capable of doing this for sure but haven't done so cause its simple not an proper scene crack . they don't flame groups about loader and emulaing techniques for no reason ,this has to do with honour you crack it good or you don't crack it at all ,driver cracks like Ultima has not so much advantage over an emulating sf3 clone .this is not what cracks is about .
I still wish more groups used the Ultima method cause theire is not yet any faster cracking method or correct emulating . until faster cracking tools are created, use the Ultima driver crack technique and put in release name *driver crack* .

It looks like you really believe that there are other groups capable of cracking Star force but they just don't like ULTiMA way and therefore won't release SCCT, Trackmania and so on.

with the previous scene leader groups I am sure they could do so FLT ,IMS
now only advanced game scene group is RLD about them I am not sure if they can do it. and cdsteam ofcourse can also create such an Ultima crack. but they are only interesting in generic tools and proper cracks thats why you see no Ultima cracks from them.

as i know ultima didn't crack any starforce driver but protect.dll which is starforce vm so why do u write about *driver crack*?

freakshow: can u confirm that info?

well protect.dll is somehow a driver (based) crack
protect.dll includes drivers, fonts, bitmaps, vm, ...
and the ultima crack is based on the delivered driver. Not because it wouldnt work with further drivers but starforce removes the "they call it hole" stuff and replace so with new driver it doesnt work anymore because sf adds/changes checks.

yeah but i mean if ultima modifies driver itself or virtual machine instructions so we would know if it's a driver based crack or virtual machine based crack. u know it's a difference if they understand vm or modify driver only

they understnad. To do a crack like ultima does you need not only to debug vm, you need to fully decrypt and trace the vm ... at least for the first time of a sf3 version. After once done you can apply the same crack on identical sf3 without much debuging so sumup: its modify VM crack but blacklistable in the sf3 drivers!

That information is very interesting. Seems like ULTiMA somehow just doesn't want to release anymore but I don't think it's about FBI busts.
