DeeYeah, if you check the link to the Starforce thread on the official forum, provided by dyn!o you will find links to sources where you can obtain the game/nfo from. Obviously it cannot be divulged here.

Dynio, I have been a member here for a long-time, so very much respect the work you have done for the community, but your original post in this thread almost seemed like an advertising campaign. Perhaps you should get a job doing infomercials

Only japing you though, old chap

It seems the old adages will always apply, 'If it can be run it can be cracked' and 'There is more than one way to skin a cat'. I guess it is just a case of skill and determination.

It is an impressive crack though, but in many respects I'd prefer to use the unpacked version so I don't have to have those unpleasant Starforce drivers on my system, modified or not...

Regards,

Dzg.

Danzig: infomercials? Hmm... good idea but I'm already working on similar tasks in my real life . Anyway, thank you for suggestion.

If it comes to the advertisement, then yes - you are right. But history changed, my friend. There were many rumours in the past about strange Starforce cracks working or not working, from demo or beta files, even from leaked unprotected versions. People, like me, wondered if this protection has been really cracked or not.

Discussed relase closes all those wonders because it contains cracked Starforce protection - not only unpacked game files. That makes a slight difference and allow us to believe it's a new cure to similar protections based on virtual machines. Every interested person has the opportunity to verify it.

What other way could I choose to advertise such progress? Probably only by marketing-like post

With respect, guys.

Does this mean that they actually cracked the generic Starforce engine code and not the game code?

Would it be possible to use the "cracked" engine files from this release with other Starforce games featuring the same origonal engine files as this game?

In short, does this crack make cracking other Starforce games (e.g. Race Driver 2) any easier?
