Leading a 3-man squad of Republic Commandos, your missions take you deep behind enemy lines on over 14 intense and challenging levels through three different campaigns where you will face more than ten brutal enemies. You'll have more than a dozen deadly weapons at your disposal, but none more lethal than your squad. What makes the squad in Star Wars Republic Commando so unique is the game's innovative One Touch Squad Control system that allows you to engage your squad with just one button.

Nice game for a first release :). There is however some problems with your securom removal as I will list here. In the game code there is a whole heap of securom calls that have not been fixed to their correct API pointer. Some examples: --------- BAD CRACK .text:1090153D daa .text:1090153E call near ptr 10900110h .text:10901543 lea ecx, [esi+2E0h] .text:10901549 mov byte ptr [esp+14h+var_4], 0 PROPER CRACK .text:1090153D call ds:??1FWindowsBitmap@@QAE@XZ ; FWindowsBitmap .text:10901543 lea ecx, [esi+2E0h] .text:10901549 mov byte ptr [esp+14h+var_4], 0 --------- BAD CRACK .text:1090149E call near ptr 10900110h .text:109014A3 stc PROPER CRACK .text:1090149E call ds:GetModuleFileNameA .text:109014A4 mov edi, ds:?appStrlen@@YIHPBD@Z ; appStrlen(char const *) --------- BAD CRACK .text:10904FB9 push offset aEditactor ; "EditActor" .text:10904FBE call near ptr 10900110h .text:10904FC3 stc PROPER CRACK .text:10904FB9 push offset aEditactor ; "EditActor" .text:10904FBE call ds:??0FName@@QAE@PBDW4EFindName@@@Z ; FName: .text:10904FC4 mov ecx, esi --------- These are just a few examples, there is in fact an awful lot of these invalid calls in the game code. Now of course the game actualy has to go over that code for a crash to occur and with the amount of bad calls in the game people will experience crashes during gameplay. Being a new group we assume that your cracker is also learning this so we will briefly explain what the problem is exactly. SecuROM takes API calls from the game and changes the calls to 'call' its own code. So you see in the bad crack examples we've shown you there is usually an one byte useless opcode around the bad call (daa, nop, stc etc..). You simply have not fixed the E8 call to the FF 15/25 API call it should be. We would not have propered it if it was a random thing but its occuring many times in the game code. Once again good effort :) *Special Thanks to the boys at Lake Placid and the Amazing Alphabet Burping duo.* "Vengeance is not the point, change is. But the trouble is that in most people's minds the thought of victory and the thought of punishing the enemy coincide."
