Release Notes:

The Skid Rowdies are looking new blood to fill up the ranks.
We're a professional team of dedicated sceners with big mark
under sceners. We believe on the ground idealism of the root
of the real old school scene. We do all this for fun and
nothing else. We don't earn anything on our hobby, as we do
this for the competition and the heart of what got the scene
started in the mid eighties.

If you think you got something to offer, then don't hold back
on contacting us as soon as possible.

twice the fun   \/ double the trouble

Fix Information:

This fix is for users who have problems with settings getting
saved properly. It's a problem even the bought edition has.

If you don't have problems, then you don't need this fix.

Remember: When you're at the settings menu, then use ESC to
quit and save the settings. Going back wont save it.

Nukers Information:

We noticed our release was nuked a few places for using stolen
public available values.vb codes.

Let's point out that, even if our dll has the very same
values, then anyone can get these values and the values are
still required to emulate the ubiorbit api calls. The data
values are transfered via IPC, as we didn't use any kind of
server emulation at all and therefore can't be compared to
the public server emulator out there.

It's sad that there are people out there, who only focus on
make you look bad, when you actually have accomplished
something of a larger scale.

If the scene is based on finding holes in everything, then you
can start nuking Command and Conquer 4 Tiberian Twilight for
using exact same method as the public server emulation
release, SecuROM cracks with emulated vm calls, Steam function
emulation and RELOADED's new Solidshield method.

We didn't mention RELOADED, to make them look bad, but to give
people insight in, that alternative routes needs to be found
to get around the protections these days.

Things are not getting easier these days, as publishers like
EA and Ubisoft, have already begun to release games which
require you to be online when you play.

You can bet more will jump on that gameplay only online wagon.
Firms like Capcom, Square Enix Eidos, THQ, SEGA and Activision
has already shown interest in doing so.

Maybe the same people who bitch that we used the values.vb
codes from the public server release, should at least prove
their accusations. Keep in mind, the values are required for
the game to function properly and the values are always the
same, because they never change.

What reason will you use, when we pre the next Ubisoft game?

On with the game release information:

Assassin's Creed� 2 is the follow-up to the title that became
the fastest-selling new IP in video game history. The highly
anticipated title features a new hero, Ezio Auditore da
Firenze, a young Italian noble, and a new era, the
Renaissance.

Assassin's Creed 2 retains the core gameplay experience that
made the first opus a resounding success and features new
experiences that will surprise and challenge players.

Assassin's Creed 2 is an epic story of family, vengeance and
conspiracy set in the pristine, yet brutal, backdrop of a
Renaissance Italy. Ezio befriends Leonardo da Vinci, takes on
Florence's most powerful families and ventures throughout the
canals of Venice where he learns to become a master assassin.

EZIO, A NEW ASSASSIN FOR A NEW ERA Ezio Auditore da Firenze is
a young Italian noble who will learn the ways of the assassins
after his family was betrayed and he looks to seek vengeance.
He is a lady's man, a free soul with panache yet has a very
human side to his personality. Through him, you become a
master assassin.

RENAISSANCE ITALY Italy in the 15th century was less a country
and more a collection of city-states where families with
political and economic strength began to take leadership roles
in cities like Florence and Venice. This journey through some
of the most beautiful cities in the world takes place in a
time in history where culture and art were born alongside some
of the most chilling stories of corruption, greed and murder.

A NEW-FOUND FREEDOM You will be able to perform missions when
you want and how you want in this open-ended world that brings
back free-running and adds elements such as swimming and even
flying to the adventure. The variety in gameplay adds another
layer for you to truly play through the game any way you
choose.

DYNAMIC CROWD Discover a living, breathing world where every
character is an opportunity for the player. Blending in with
the crowd is easier, working with in-game characters provide
ample rewards but can also lead to surprising consequences.

BECOME A MASTER ASSASSIN Perfect your skills to become a
master assassin where you brandish new weapons, learn to
disarm enemies then use their weapons against them, and
assassinate enemies using both hidden blades.

Special Notes:

Thank you Ubisoft, this was quiete 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 easier.

the very few who still manage to do this with the scene spirit
intact. Well done guys!
