Its run by the people behind by uhdmovies.cc It has fast server But its not in the megathread,should i still use it? I tried other sites but there arent as many movies Also i cant use torrent because i use a free vpn

Hi, I have a pretty old fire stick (its tiny) and I want to see if I can still use it for Kodi. That is what we originally used it for, it has been so long that I don't really remember anything about it. I can get as far as putting downloader on it and then anything after that, I am lost. Can anyone here help me? If not, can you; lead me to the right place?

It has all the reddit annoucements, many posts, and also a giant list of subreddit channels on telegram... so did the reddit mods make it or just an impostor ?

I've been using Mullvad for the past few months. Have not had many issues with it aside from the 5 device limit and the removal of port forwarding. I'm currently looking at Private Internet Access as a potential replacement. It looks like it offers 10 device limit and port forwarding included with the price.

Anyone using PIA? How's the experience?

Edit: Probably should have mentioned, feel free to offer any other recommendations, I'm not attached to, or against any specific recommendations. I would like it to have a GUI available on Linux though if possible.

Two years ago I've tried my hand at cracking something, it's quite an unknown game, Arena Wars was the name. I always found it fun to take it for a spin, try out a match or two, then forget about it for a couple months.

Until inevitably, the reason for this project came up. See the game originally came in a disk, and it worked fine at the time, as time moved on however, disk drives ceased to be a thing, now only emulating drives, or plugging drives via USB was possible. Guess what, the game's builtin DRM did not recognize either of them and now I had a game that I owned but could not play. Only way to get it back is by cracking it, it's abandonware too, so its not like anyone gives a damn.

My first try wasn't very successful, x64dbg is a very complicated tool and to anyone who isn't used to reverse-engineering, it's a brutal way to start. Hence giving up, a few months ago I tried with a new technique.

The game, albeit very old, was one of the first to be built in .NET, the same framework which powers Unity games. This meant that there were decompilers (like dnSpy) which could decompile the code and make it easily editable.

Unfortunately there were two problems with this approach:

• Arena Wars is so old that modern decompilers only support decompiling the code, but not recompiling changes directly, those changes needed to be done manually in the IL code. If you don't know what that is, it's basically working in Assembly, one step above writing in bits and bytes.
• The code was obfuscated, meaning I had no idea what any of it did, only how it's structured. Making matters worse was that the game had multiple languages, meaning that I couldn't even directly search for text to find what i needed.

So despite being able to see the code, I had my work cut out for me. What followed was a whole trial and error. If the game thought it wasn't legit, it launched in Demo mode, I had to figure out where it got the check for the CD from and flip it so it thought it was legit. Because that I was writing tweaks in IL code, given my skill level, the most I could do is change a + to a - for example, or a < to a >. If I wrote new code or added complex functions, it would change the size of a class and crash the game.

Eventually though I got to where the changes were affecting how the game responded. I discovered the game had an alternate Multiplayer Demo mode, (basically the same thing), as well as a fake real mode. Where it says its legit, but nothing works. While I did this, I took various notes, learning what each function most likely did, steadily building my knowledge of how the game worked, until I discovered where it checked the CDs.

Soon enough, I got lucky and the Demo was no more. I intercepted the response code from the CD check and mangled it quite a bit, now it thinks its legit. Dunno how or why, but now it does. Anyways, soon after cracking it, I ended up cleaning the crack, figuring out exactly which change did it the trick in the executable and boiled down the entire crack to a single changed byte.

Overall, it was quite like a brainteaser, fun to solve, and my reward was getting my game back!

Not saying that anything like SECUROM or DENUVO are next, but for those that like this kind of thing, I imagine they'd start small and slowly get to that level. At the end of the day, it's only a puzzle.

Extras:

• What I saw most of the time.
• The notes I took while cracking it.
• Making the final crack.

Thank you for reading about my journey. Have a day full of wonder!

Hi all,

I started using the queue in my deluge install with the automatic rotation, as seeding 1000+ torrents simultaneously was causing performance and network issues. My downloads and uploads are a lot more active now, but the big issue I'm encountering is I will accrue HnRs on certain trackers when a torrent it rotated out of seeding.

Is there a way to force new torrents to stay actively seeding for X period of time? Even better, a way to force it only on specific torrents?

I do have an idea in mind of how to accomplish this:

• Set up a watch dir for torrents that need to seed for lets say, 2 weeks minimum

• Have that watch dir add torrents with auto manage turned off and add a specific "force seed" tag or something to identify them.

• Create a script that will query deluge for the force seeded torrents, and if they have been added more than two weeks ago, turn auto manage back on and remove the force seed tag

• Run that script on a cronjob every night

I believe the above should work, but it does seem overly complex. Any ideas?

Looking to download an old Fitgirl repack of Trials: Fusion w/ all the DLCs, but none of the torrents I've found are still seeded. Does anyone have a backup or alternative place where I might find it? The only alts I could find were premium sites that'd take 4 days to get downloaded

Is there a reason why all the new movies contain the annoying slot light man on the pirate streaming sites?

I'm a bit surprised to see so many torrent posts. Are most people still using Torrents? Are most piracy users aware of programs like sonarr or radarr?

Hello, do you know what are the best ways to list al rarbg torrents? Are they still seeded?

Db0's note: Not quite about piracy, but very very close to be relevant to us.

This is just one action in a coming conflict. It will be interesting to see how this shakes out. Does the record industry win and digital likenesses become outlawed, even taboo? Or does voice, appearance etc just become another sets of rights that musicians will have to negotiate during a record deal?

I torrented last year deep rock galactic and played it trough steam with friend but cant remember how, can somebody help me to play Potal 2 with my friend

I found The Warez Collectors (TWC) on the-eye.eu while looking for something else entirely, but I noticed a message that they're quitting.

When I go to a site like 1337x or tgx, they never have smaller games, and if they do, they have no seeders.

My set up has been MPC and MadVR for HDR content, but dolby vision when I tried long ago didn't work properly.

Has any players come out since then for dolby vision support?

Would ask this on a LinuxCrackSupport community. Without it, the best choice is here, as i didnt buy the game on steam.

TGAA uses wmv cutscenes during the first half of the game. They cant play properly, getting stuck on a black screen. While it could be circumvented by removing the wmv files, skipping the cutscenes altogether is detrimental to the story, as this game is sort of a mystery-focused vn. Cutscenes are important.

The wmv files can be played with mf-installcab, according to this reddit post. The issue im having is that most online help refers to either steam, lutris or a raw ~/.wine folder. I use Bottles to run windows software, so if its possible to keep using that instead of Lutris, itd be appreciated.

-I tried this command line from a "Kingdom Hearts on Linux" tutorial to run mf-installcab on the bottle and it seemed to properly run and install the necessary dependencies. However, the cutscenes still do not work.

-I tried re-encoding the cutscenes as suggested here, but that did not work either, nor i expected it to.

-Using the Bottles options, I installed the Media Foundation dependency. That did not work either.

My situation is highly specific, even for a linux user, so i dont expect nor demand a solution. Apparently lutris works just fine from what i can read, so i might try that if nothing else works. Still, any help, no matter how small, will be appreciated.

I know there are some pages like lightnovelpub, panda-novel or novelfull but these sites doesn't have many webnovel.com novels. Does anyone know a place where i can find all webnovel's novels or a way to get them from webnovel without using the coins? Thanks beforehand

Heya all. As per title, I'm looking for a good dark theme for qbittorrent. So far I've tried three (MumbleDark, Dracula, DarkStyleSheet), and they all have black text on dark grey background for unselected torrents.

This, imo, is about as clever as going 4000m underwater in a rinkydink submersible that's barely rated for 2000m. Surely someone wouldn't go to the trouble of creating a dark mode, with black text on dark grey. Wondering if it's something to do with my windows 10 setup, or just how it's designed... can anyone direct me to one that doesn't have this 'feature' or solve why this happens? Help much appreciated!

Got banned from torrent leech after uninstalling theyr broken cracked softwares that i couldnt manage to run properly, dropping my ratio above 0.4... that's a shame, my qbittorrent ratio is 5 and i quite seed anything untill i need more space on the drives. Any (free of course) alternatives ?

Until the demise of RARBG it was easy to get my hands on decent Dolby Vision content, both for movies and TV, but this past month I have really struggled to find an alternative source.

Where do you guys recommend I go now? Guidance on specific trackers and/or usenet providers would be most excellent.

My torrent searching skills are failing me, looking for the likes of peppa pig and dora the explorer.
