Gamecopyworld.com?
You've just dredged up a core memory! I can't believe they're still around and I haven't used a CD drive in so long that I've forgotten that no-CD patches were a thing.
Right?
I'd forgotten about them for years... Went to play an old game the other day and it came to mind...somehow remembered it after a couple days
Man, I can't believe that site is still going. It was always my first choice for no-cds when games actually still came on CD/DVDs.
I'll have to quickly check there to see if they have what I need. Thanks.
Edit:
This was a site I got a file that caused Windows Defender to go ballistics ony desktop a few years back. Couldn't remember the name. Probably gonna find a patch and see what virustotal says.
Well the no CD patch is usually a crack for the game so yeah it kinda makes sense that antivirus software would identify it as such. Most of the time windows even identifies the "threat" as a keygen or a crack after deleting it.
It's pretty normal in the world of piracy
That's good to know.
oooh nostalgic.
What I like about gamecopyworld: it's been around forever!
What I hate: no standards. Sometimes you'll find cracks for a win98 game or an XP game and they'll require sys/kernel functionality that didn't exist until windows 7. I mean.. what if I wanna play period correct? And NOT on windows 7 or newer?
