- *-=[How to use gamecrk for BURNOUT: Championship Drag Racing]=-*
-
- First choose the BURNOUT (svga or 3dfx) version game you wish to crack.
-
- Press the up/down arrow keys to highlight your version to crack.
-
- Press the left/right arrow keys to select whether you want to CRACK the game,
- UNDO a previous crack (so that everything would be exactly like original),
- or set the directory PATH for the game (if located somewhere else on the HD).
- The default game path is current DOS path.
-
- When you select CRACK or UNDO, on the screen appears a window showing the
- cracking progress. If you wanted to crack a game that is already cracked or
- uncrack a game that is not cracked, an error message is displayed. If
- everything is OK, the "Done!" messages is displayed for the file cracked
- and you can select CANCEL to get back to the game selection menu. To exit
- this program, press ESC.

- Previous versions of Burnout (1.00 thru 1.21) had only (1) CD check.
- They were easy to crack. I posted a nice util to crack these in both
- software rendered & 3DFX. In Usenet rec.autos.simulators a lame-ass
- Bethesda Softworks Beta tester noticed the util. He found it worked.
- I know he tried it since he replied that "you seem to have a knack
- for cracking this game". So what...
-
- Shortly v1.22 gets released. Now there's multiple CD checks in the newer
- patches. I wonder why? I also guess that Bethesda thinks they have a real
- winner this time. A patch that can't be cracked? Homey don't think so...
-
- Knowledge in assembly language and a debugger is all you need... Bethesda.
- Give it up... (9) different locations to hex edit since v1.22...
- Go ahead and redo it again. I'll defeat it again, no problem.
-
- I play this game therefore I crack this game. There is no way that a
- stupid CD check will force me to use the CD when I play. I play 100%
- from the HD and the CD (which I own) is an install medium only.
