Most games have protections. This is why crack is necessary to override these protections. Usually, the crack will be inside the disk image .(iso), in a folder named “Crack” or “SKIDROW” or “RELOADED” or “FAIRLIGHT” or “CODEX” or “PROPHET” or “PLAZA” or “FLT” or or “Razor1911” or “TiNYiSO” or “OUTLAWS” or “3DM” or “ALI213”



NOTE: you need to explore the Disk (1. right-click on disk/ dvd/ iso 2. open) the most common installation of a crack is to simply copy all files INSIDE the “crack” folder and then paste it into the installation directory of your game and replace the old files (game directory is usually in C:\Program Files (x86)\the_game _name) Here is for example a folder containing a crack (usually you will find inside it an exe file, dll and an ini file)





4. How to change the game language

usually to change game language (if your language is supported): 1. go to the game directory where the exe of the game 2. open the .ini file (for example steam_api.ini or codex.ini or skidrow.ini or 3dmgame.ini…if your windows hide the common extensions, the name of file will be without the ini, example “steam_api”. the icon looks like a txt file icon) 3. change the line language=english by your game language for example Language = french or Language = italian or Language = german or Language = spanish or Language = brazilian or Language = russian or Language = polish or Language = tchinese

FAQ:





0. What is the password for link protector ! i can’t find the password for rar ?

in every game post you will find the password for link protector and for rar, the password is the same for both.





1. i get an error like “CRC failed in the encrypted file (wrong password ?)” ?

RAR cannot distinguish a corrupt file and wrong password. We test all games before publishing, so such message indicates 99% a corrupted file. sometimes it happens for those who have bad internet connection quality and especially who download from mega. to solve it, first download the last Winrar version 5.xx if you don’t have it, then delete the corrupted part or file (Winrar will show you the number of corrupted file part.xx) and you have to redownload it, we recommend you to change your current browser to redownload the file, try Firefox or Chrome or use a software like jdownloader. you can also download the corrupted part from a different host because all links are interchangeable (you can for example download part1 from mega part2 from uptobox part3 from uploaded)





2. i installed the game but when i click on the game .exe or the shortcut, it opens “STEAM” or “ORIGIN” ?

Probably you haven’t copied correctly the crack or your antivirus has removed the crack files or block them.

just add those files to the white/exclusion list on your antivirus or disable your antivirus and reinstall the game and recopy the crack (here a tutorial how to add an exception for a blocked application for some antivirus AVAST | AVIRA | NORTON | KASPERSKY | AVG | ESET | BITDEFENDER | F-SECURE | PANDA
