Possible to skip Copy Protection on German Build?

[xmarksthespot81]

Hi!

First of all, thanks for your useful tool. Would it be possible to change game script of the European Version of Gobliiins (Goblins 1) (supporting also German Language) to skip the Copy Protection as in the International Release?

Regards

Hi!

At the moment its not possible to modify the Scripts of Coktel Vision games. We only have an Decompiler for decompiling the TOT scripts. Not modifying them.

Hi, thank you, as @BJNFNE said it is currently only possible to decompile the script (a method for partially editing it is WIP)
however, having the decompiler script can help detect where the logic was implemented so you know when to go and what to try when hex editing the compiled script.

Thanks for your comment :)

I will have a look for sure. Keep up the good work!

I‘ve already spotted the key routine. It should be Sub3905 which is not being called in the International Release whereas the European Release does callSub 3905.

If Boozook could at some point write back a modified INTRO.TOT, it should be able to accomplish a proper deprotection.

--> There was an idea for modifying the Scripts over bytecode patches, but it has not yet figured out how that could work exactly.
I think its still WIP
