Cracks dont enable you to play without cds.....

just burn a copy of your game. if what you say is really the truth, then you shall have no problem.

Crack enables you to play a game that you obtained illegaly, such as from a p2p program, usually in cd image form. you burnt the image and you use the crack to get it to work.

Cracks = illegal.
illegal = against forum rules

Sorry, dont try again.

Cracks ARE NOT illegal, contrary to what many of you uninformed people believe.

Saying a crack is illegal is the exact same as saying a burning program is illegal, or blank cd's are illegal.

Cracks allow you to play without your cd, if you lost it.

I had OFP on my pc but lost the cd, so I got a crack so i could play it.



Not illegal, quit saying it is.


Please, prove me wrong, show me a law where it says cracks are illegal.

Because you don't know how to get past the , or  cd protection.  All you need to do is take the cd into , do a full  of it (may take awhile), take the . file, and burn it to a cd, or you could also install and use an  of the cd.

Really simple.

Linus, I may be wrong, but this is my experience with cracks. Purely for research of course

Anyway, whenever I see cracks, it's not just for being able to not use a cd, it's to skip the authorization/ registration stage. For example, to crack Snapz Pro X, you need to change you computers clock, install little snitch to block call out attempts, delete certain files from the library, replacing them with similar ones, restart, then reset the time, restart again, then turn off little snitch. Something close to that.

Doesnt seem too legal, and Snapz Pro X doesnt have a cd to start with I think, it's a software download from Ambrosia software you have to pay for.

One of my expierinces with cracks, I normally dont bother.

Thats not really a crack...that sounds like using alot of loopholes.

A crack is a file you paste into the folder of the program and the program thinks is its .exe.

Yes there are many cracks, but none are illegal.

There are no cd cracks if you either lost the cd or downloaded a game

there are also registration cracks.

You're saying that altering the program's files, to avoid having to purchase software is legal?


Posted By: Linus
Date Posted: 22 July 2005 at 4:15am
Choopie, like i've explained before, cracks themselves are not illegal.

Cracks are as illegal as burning programs are...


Like I've said, prove me wrong.

The passing of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) legislation made software cracking, as well as the distribution of information which enables software cracking, illegal in the United States.

Section 1204, first paragraph.

It says for commercial advantage or personal FININCIAL gain.

They classify personal financial gain as selling software, not saving money by using cracks.

Check Wikipedia:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_cracking - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_cracking

Or the DMCA overview:

http://www.gseis.ucla.edu/iclp/dmca1.htm - http://www.gseis.ucla.edu/iclp/dmca1.htm

quote:

"Makes it a crime to circumvent anti-piracy measures built into most commercial software."

That would mean finding a way around that pesky "would you like to register now" screen without having to send the proper payment to the software producers. If the DMCA makes that a crime, how is it still legal?

Ok, I stand corrected, registration bypassing cracks are illegal, but no-cd cracks are not. Atleast i have yet to see reputable proof one way or the other.(SO far atleast)


But I'd like to see the actual phrasing inside the DMCA, becasue, sorry, I need more proof then the UCLA's website.
And Wiki didn't say anything about it being illegal in the US


IE- I would like to see the actual section where it's outlawed...

I was looking too, but I'm not really putting much effort into this, but my first statement:
"The passing of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) legislation made software cracking, as well as the distribution of information which enables software cracking, illegal in the United States. " was straight off wiki.

And of course cracks bypassing registration/ payment stages would be illegal.


Posted By: Linus

Yes, I got that part, but I just don't trust Wiki.. they seem to..I dunno, save it for later.

Yes, I can see how it can be constrewed as illegal, and I am with you on it with the bypassing registration thing, but

1) Havn't seen proof that it's illegal, just what wiki says (hey, it's 5:41 and I've been up since 7 yesterday morning) so i'm to tired to read the whole charter.

But, as for no cd cracks being illegal, i think thats wrong, becasue it isn't used for personal finincial gain.


~~~Don't yell at me for this post, i'm tired as hell and I won't be on for another 5 hours maybe.. so i'm defenseless~~~

And looking at choops sig is making me more tired

Yes, if you boguht the game, it's purely legal becasu it's just making you capable of playing it incase you lost the CD.

Now, if you d/l the game, it's a gray area, it's still legal BUT, it's assiting in an illegal activity.

I sound smart

[color=Red]It is illegal. Stop posting this crap here!!![color]

No amount of your lame arguements are going to chance that fact. Any more posts observed by a mod regarding illegal software activities will result in an instant banning and an Email will be sent to your ISP regarding the matter.

If your not sure of what is legal and what isnt, I suggest not posting about it here at all.
