Crack> Ultima V
crack written by anonymous
>>>Note from Bob: The kind netter who sent this to me said that he has

>>>of Ultima V. It worked fine on his however.
The file size of my copy of ULTIMA.EXE is 36576.
The date is 06-24-88.
I hope this is of some help!
To unprotect Ultima V try this: (On a copy, of course!)
{Don't type in the comments in curly brackets.}
-----------------------------------------------------------------
rename ultima.exe ultima.xxx
debug ultima.xxx
-d 10e 111
17E5:0100 6E 09 n.
17E5:0110 64 00 d.
{If you don't see the "6E 09" and "64 00" here then your copy is
different than mine and this probably won't work.}
-e 10e 3b 1b 00 08
-d 114 117
17E5:0110 00 00 1C 08 ....
{Check for "00 00 1C 08".}
-e 114 22 03 2d 07

rename ultima.xxx ultima.exe
{done}
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Or use your favorite hex editor (Norton's, etc.) and change the
string 6E096400 to 3B1B0008
and 00001C08 to 22032D07
Change the first occurrence only! The second string appears in the
file several times.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
This just changes the .EXE file header so that execution begins after
the key disk check. My copy is kind of old so I hope this still works.
