No?...didn't think so.

So the game was hacked before and no one blinked an eye on the forums? Even when it was a dvd hack?

well of course no one blinked an eye. This didn't effect their on-line play !!!

seems some hacks are more equal then others...

Ya, I had feeling that was it Jg52. Some people believe it is better to try to get a thread locked then admit when they are wrong huh?

Too bad they have this immature attitude. I have actually been learning quite a lot about something I wasn't aware whatsoever buddy which is the not approved/approved dvd/hack.

It is a very interesting subject...

I just leave my DVD in one of my 3 drive's.....when I get a chance to fly, I'm always ready......I don't think many loyal fans got that hack....I am a proud member of the Anti-hack Pilots Association

I wish I had known of it before. I had a cd of pacific fighters in my cd drive constantly and it would always spin up at high speed with the start of my computer. One day the cd drive just decided it was time to totally eat up my Pacific Fighters cd!

Don't you believe it.

I find this discussion about the no cd/dvd very interesting; as I have 1946 updated to 4.08m and have never had to have the disk in the drive since day one.

I have heard that the North American released DVD does not require you to insert it for play

wgvette · #**509** 12-13-2007, 09:00 PM

That would explain it.

That is faulty logic... and has nothing to do with the hacking that produced the mods... First off my copy of 46 had no securom on it... and it was quite offficial.. I cant speak for anyone else.. but I paid for my copy of 46... Pe-2, PF,AEP and FB.. and IL2 as well for that matter... not only that, I have bought multiple copies of IL2, FB, The GOLD pack and 46 to get others interested in the sim.. so I have no problems with using a No DVD/CD file on the sims that I paid for.

Regardless to what you or anyone else may say.. the no DVD/CD is still not something that would give an unfair advantage to someone over someone who does not have it... and also the whole "Well what about the guys with killer rigs vs Mr. Blo with his bargain basement rig" argument is also another debate and has absolutely nothing to do with the hacking of the sim.

Two totally different things. You all know my feelings on the whole deal so I wont even bother going there.. but that argument is just erroneous and hold absolutely no water whatsoever.

Evengy... I suggest you just lock this thread because this back and forth stuff is going to go on until you do between the most prolific posters in this thread.. There will be no resolution , no one will back down or change their tune and no one will agree to disagree.. they will jjust go back and forth and back and forth until you consider slashing your wrists to make it stop.
