CRK2COM (+Cracker + .crk lib)   by Bang

CRACKER & CRK2COM are Helpfull tools for ace-crackers and beginers. ------------------------------------------------------------------- CRK files. Approximately 100 of sample .CRK files are included. Unpack them from CRKFILES.ZIP. (see How to make CRK file) Cracker. Cracker is a utility that scans current directory for CRK files, shows titles and allows you to patch some. Really it has a good interface, so there is no description required. Anyways, I'm not an author of this programm... CRK2COM. That's something I've done myself. There's no fun to supply large cracker with every patch you've done... This utility converts CRK files to executable COM files. Size depends on number of patches. How to create CRK files. ---------------------- Yes, that's only one thing why this programs are better than others. For example you have program GAME.EXE. You've patched one byte (03h to FFh) to make nearly ulimited lives. Cracked version of GAME.EXE saved in GAME.NEW. That's use DOS FC command: FC /B GAME.EXE GAME.NEW >GAME.CRK Now start your text editor. Insert 1st line - "My first cracked game" Insert 2nd line - (empty. just CRLF, used to separate patches), Insert 3rd line - "Unlimite lives by Cracking Lamer", Change 4th line - from "Comparing files GAME.EXE and GAME.NEW:" to "GAME.EXE" Save file. Execute: CRK2COM GAME.CRK !GAME.COM That's it... Ready to be released... Once started, !GAME.COM'll say following: --- Patch for My first cracked game (Created by CRK2COM v1.10 Beta. (c)1993, .BAT-Man)... Unlimited lives by Cracking Lamer ──> Apply patch(Y/n)? --- - Best wishes to all local bandits, .BAT-Man.
