Sword of the Stars v1.2.1 UPDATE CRACKED (c) Lighthouse Interactive
Release Date : 01-10-2007 Protection : ActiveMARK
Release Type : CRACK Game Genre : Strategy
Scene notice:
We have seen our previous cracked update, being nuked on some sites with
some very non intelligent nuke reasons. First let us state that, we didn't
try to hide, that the crack is an ActiveMARK crack, something other groups
has/do. Like the previous crack update, then this one is also a ActiveMARK
crack. Furthermore if the nukers/siteops on those sites, really did test
our work, then they would realize that our cracks also works on multiple
types of os, other than just Windows XP.
Secondly nukeing our Act of War High Treason update crack, minutes after
it was pre'ed is another sigh of non intelligent actions, meaning that you
didn't test the crack at all. Another reason to prove that, is that, even
if you had the game + expansion installed on your pc, then the time needed
for the game to load all the precalculated data into the memory, actually
takes quite some time. Another clear proof that you didn't test our crack
before nuking.
Why do the scene gets flooded with such totally ignorant individuals? You
might wonder?, we guess we never would get an answer to that question. If
you let someone or some, who pretend to know better, have a huge influence
on various nukers/siteops, to get them to follow their commands, then who
are the dumbass now? Seems like there are someone out there who have their
own set of rules.
Let us point out that our cracks and future cracks will all be tested with
scene releases, not just the cracked iso, but also the clone, to avoid any
stupid nuke reason, that you actually can blame us for. All this of course
counts for both ActiveMARK or any other type of cracks, that you will see
in the future from us.
You simply have to live with, that we're not "only" a "lame" clone group,
like so many high ranked groups or wanna be elite groups think, just
because they have been around for some years. Maybe there is a reason,
that you haven't achived that much of an improvement during those years.
Face it, being in a clone group does not make you lame and thinking every
dumbass can dump/make a clone is probably right, but there is more to it
than just that. Does it requiere much braincells to do mp3, dvdr, console
release etc? Nah it does not, but if you haven't realized, then it's
about doing it first. It has always been about speed, no matter what part
of the scene you're active in. We guess you haven't realized that, even
after all those years in the scene, maybe you have been to busy bitching,
rather than using a few braincells on how much fun you can have. People
like you ruin the scene!
Anyway, face it, most often the ActiveMARK protected exes are the same
exes as the retail isos/patches, it's just that the retail isos/patches
nearly always uses a media pretection, like Securom, Tages, StarForce,
SafeDisc and so on. It does not mean that the game code is any different
to the retail protections. Sometimes having these non retail protections
actually makes the games less error free, because of often used triggers
in retail protected isos/patches.
