Isn't first paul.dll game cracked by darkc0der was Crysis Warehad wich took him 15 min to crack it?

No, I think he said that about cracking the AITD paul.dll. It was probably an exaggeration, but it made him sound very cool, especially after all the waiting for a month. Smile

I think it's because you have low amount of VRAM... What GPU do you have?

Well I've no problems with this modified paul.dll file, even revoked the activation and tried again, did a small mission for Jacob and a story mission for Vlad without encountering anything, still unsure how using only a activation bypass and a clone or mini-image would work on a "clean" system where the game hasn't been previously activated.
(Registry entries and all that.)

EDIT: Reverted back to the original file and reactivated, could continue just fine from where I previously left off.


cyclonefr so this confirms it ! Smile

Paul.dll works, we only need a nice clonedvd\mini-image Smile

Now we need to know if the clonedvd release really works or not, the release is not on my private tracker yet, so i cant get it now.

Thanks very much JBeckman.

@rhagz : it can but i doubt it because if they had put this check, then it would check for a valid paul.dll file too... I mean it isnt logical... Why would the dev check for Securom.dat and not paul.dll ? So if it doesnt check for paul.dll, i'm pretty sure the exe doesnt. Plus, Securom.dat is dependent of paul.dll (this one contains the DRM signature) and I'm pretty sure "securom DVD check" doesnt care about this file at all, which would lead that the game only check for a patched exe (my guess is it just checks for the SHA1 of the file, or something like that).

To make it short : i'm pretty sure paul.dll is only for the DRM check that's all so you couldn't activate it before the release dat. The triggers are only for the DVD checks, not the DRM.

both are on the ston3d release.

The game works here.
The first few releases gave me the shakey cam and the control problem, but for me these things have made it work:
- Using the russian crack
- Renaming the GTAIVGDF.dll to GTAIVGDF.dll.bak
- Launching with GTAIV.exe and NOT launchGTAIV.exe
- Lowering the graphic settings and restart the pc

That's it for me, but perhaps the STON3D release works without my steps...
Michelle was horney really soon and catching criminels is also fun.

Only minus are the mouse controls during bowling etc.

btw I have a Q9550 - 4GB - 9600GT - VISTA SP1 and it works without a stutter

It's a mix of a clone and crack, plus we need a serial... could we expect a real crack who don't need the cloned cd?

OK. I know this is my first post, but I've thought about what triggers the protection of the game. So I'll write down my hypothesis:

Let's suppose I've bought the game and I don't have connection to the internet. So I must use the offline activation method. But as it is described HERE you need to enter you UNLOCK REQUEST CODE and SERIAL in order to receive UNLOCK CODE and download an archive, containing the following 3 files: GTAIV.exe, LaunchGTAIV.exe and paul.dll. So even performing and offline activation you still need a PC with enabled internet connection to get your unlock code. The files are the one needed to start the game properly as it has been activated online. So it must be THAT UNLOCK CODE, which causes all the troubles with camera and stuff. In Rockstar support page is written, that if you are going to use your serial for another activation you must REVOKE it. It is also said, that if you change components of your machine and you have unlocked your game with offline activation you will need a tool to revoke it before the hardware change. That gives me the thought, that the UNLOCK REQUEST CODE is machine speciffic generated and the UNLOCK CODE is therefore also machine speciffic. In my oppinion if you manage to get your hands to UNLOCK CODE speciffic for your machine and get around the serial, or better use original serial with offine activation, get yourself a mini-image or a whole REAL CLONEDVD image you will be able to play it without a problem. But since there is serial revocation needed you can't use more than one serial for numerous machines. The one thing you may do is get your game copy working with offline instalation, revoke the key, help a friend getting his UNLOCK CODE and share the key with him, so he can play too and so on, and so on.

Dunno if you will get me right, cause my Enghlish is not so fluent, but I hope you understand at least a bit of it. I'm waiting for comments on this hypothesis.

Maybe.

You don't need a serial with a cracked paul.dll since that file stores the activation data.

Best guess atm is that a modified .exe triggers the swaying camera. So maybe a clone with legit .exe will work.

Lots of people are running into problems later in the game with the current cracks. Can't use computer terminals etc. so just because you don't get the drunk thing right away doesn't mean it will work all the way.

The game works fine with the fcukthescene release, but I reached the point in the game, where you have to go to the internet café, but I can't use the computers. I step next to one and press the key, but only the hotkey sign disappears while I press the key and nothing else happens.
I hope it's not a protection trigger and I do something wrong (if that's possible).
