  1. DESCRIPTION :
  2. The Settlers 7: Paths to a Kingdom ties in with the tradition of the series
  3. success while bringing a fresh, modern and innovative strategy game, based on
  4. strong game mechanics and deep gameplay that are hallmarks of the highly
  5. acclaimed Settlers franchise. Players will easily become engaged in an
  6. exciting campaign, skirmish maps or multi-player challenges in a world of
  7. lush forests, open meadows, fast flowing rivers, and high mountains
  8.  
  9. FEATURES:
  10. Scene-related rants & stuff:
  11. As far as previous 'cracks' of Ubisoft's new DRM system are concerned:
  12.  
  13. Both of Skidr0w's releases show us they haven't had a look (probably
  14. even didn't find) the actual protection code and everything hints on em
  15. using parts of publicly collected 'challenge/response' pairs. Luckily
  16. Assassin's Creed II is probably the only target ever where this approach
  17. of 'emulating' the server by a static lookup will yield any measurable
  18. success (due to a basic design flaw in an otherwise pretty neat
  19. idea of software protection). In fact, we considered this approach as
  20. generally too unreliable and 'unworthy' of a scene crack, so we didn't
  21. care about doing it. Instead we opted for going for the arguably
  22. most challenging implementation of Ubisoft's new DRM first
  23. (emulating actual server-side game code). So here it is: The first
  24. Ubisoft DRM crack!
  25.  
  26. RELOADED:
  27. Congrats on your recent advances in automating your Solidshield VM cracks
  28. We actually respect that. However, we wonder why you didn't go all the way
  29. and recompiled the fixed decompiler output to optimized native x86 code as
  30. we did as early as with Perry Rhodan (followed by Anno 1404)
  31.  
  32. Although we think there's not much merit to discussing technical details in
  33. nfos (mostly because it's impossible for anyone lacking the skills and
  34. sources to fact-check these statements) we feel the need to preempt all
  35. that made-up "they-ripped-it-from-some-unprotected-tuvaluan-multi12-binary"
  36. ~lol~ that's sure to follow:
  37.  
  38. We invite anyone who is able to and interested enough in this to check the
  39. history of scene-released Solidshield VM cracks taking into account things
  40. like availability of possible alternate sources for the protected code
  41. fragments at the time of release, similarity to compiled code (i.e. 'copy &
  42. paste cracks' from differently protected or unprotected binaries), the
  43. rebuilt code's resemblence of the original VM instructions regarding
  44. sequence of mnemonics etc.pp. We're pretty confident (read '100% certain')
  45. you'll come to the conclusion that we were first with respect to rebuilding
  46. actual Solidshield VM code
  47.
