Version 1.0.1 (11/01/2023)​

Changes:


  • Made new Galerians (Europe) patches to replace the ones from back in the day which contained a cracktro. The goal of this patcher is to not only support every LibCrypt game, but to also be as stealth in defeating the protection as possible.
  • A total of 234 different LibCrypt protected game discs are now supported. A significant amount of work has been put into the compatibility list (which links/uses redump titles/ids for maximum clarity).
  • Added version detection for Mánager de Liga (Spain) and Mánager de Liga (Spain) (Preproduction). Only (Spain) (Preproduction) has LibCrypt protection so now the official release without LibCrypt protection will be identified and not patched.

LibCrypt Patcher v1.0.5

Changes:
  • Implemented smaller less intrusive patches for Final Fantasy VIII Europe Disc 1, Final Fantasy VIII Fance Disc 1, Final Fantasy VIII Germany Disc 1/2/3/4, Final Fantasy VIII Italy Disc 1/2/3/4, Final Fantasy VIII Spain Disc 1, and OverBlood 2 Italy (based on BAD's patch) (thanks @Littlemouse1968).
  • OverBlood 2 Europe v1.0 was released with broken LibCrypt protection in the official pressed PSX CD-ROMs resulting in a crash at the end of Episode 2 with even the original disc. This has been fixed with a new patch (thanks @Littlemouse1968). OverBlood 2 Europe v1.1 removed the broken protection, so version detection to the patcher has been added so that nothing will be done for v1.1 Disc 1 or Disc 2.

Imagine the best selling console of it's generation publishing and pressing real retail copies of multiple titles with broken anti-piracy techniques, ohh wait you don' t have too :)

    @SylverReZ if you could find a v5 DS ML you would have the best of both worlds since the v5 units had the same backlight brightness levels as the DS Lite unlockable with flashme

    A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."

    Agreed, that why I try to buy all my games on disc, Xbox anyways. Switch games (which I pirate tbh) don't matter much, I stay offline 24/7 anyways.
  • AncientBoi @ AncientBoi:
    I don't pirate them, I Use Them :mellow:. Like I do @BigOnYa 's couch :tpi::evil::rofl2:

  • cearp @ cearp:
    @BakerMan - you can still "own" digital media, arguably easier and better than physical since you can make copies and backups, as much as you like.

    The issue is DRM
  • cearp @ cearp:
    You can buy drm free games / music / ebooks, and if you keep backups of your data (like documents and family photos etc), then you shouldn't lose the game. but with a disk, your toddler could put it in the toaster and there goes your $60

    :rofl2:
  • cearp @ cearp:
    still, I agree physical media is nice to have. just pointing out the issue is drm
  • rqkaiju2 @ rqkaiju2:
    i like physical media because it actually feels like you own it. thats why i plan on burning music to cds
  • cearp @ cearp:
    It's nice to not have to have a lot of physical things though, saves space

    Nor clothes 🤮 . Saves on time, soap, water and money having to wash them. :D
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @rqkaiju2, Physical media is a great source for archiving your data, none of that cloud storage shiz.
