Cracking Mr Cool v1.5.0.48 manually
-================================-
by AIS KACANG '98
******************************************
If you don't want to go thru this trouble,
just run ak_mc1-c.exe
******************************************
Please read this file using windows notepad
or MS-DOS Text Editor (or at least using
monospaced fonts if you're using Word)!
Use a hexeditor, e.g. hexworkshop available
at http://www.bpsoft.com/
and open the file mrcool.exe
STEP 1 : Remove time check
===========================
Offset Bytes (hexadecimal)
------ -------------------
remember to switch to hex mode
Look for
000569D1 C3A3DCE84500A1DCE845003B
|
Replace with
000569D1 C0A3DCE84500A1DCE845003B
|
STEP 2 : Remove annoying message on title bar
=============================================
now switch to ASCII mode
Look for
days left in evaluation period
You should find something that look like this:
Mr Cool - .......... days left in evaluation period
(where the .......... contains the value 0000FFFFFFFF1F000000)
Replace with
Mr Cool............................................
(where each of the . contains the value 00)
************************************************************
How these info may be useful in future upgrades of Mr Cool :
************************************************************
When I first released the crack for Mr Cool v1.03.37, I wrote:
Offset Bytes (hexadecimal)
------ ------------------------
Look for
000539F1 C3A3BCA84500A1BCA845003B

Replace with
000539F1 C0A3BCA84500A1BCA845003B

If you compare these info with what i've written in this
version (v1.5.0.48), you will come to these conclusions:
1. the byte to patch is definitely located after the
0000539F1 offset (since the exe file has grown larger
in size)
2. most of the hexadecimal values have not changed
(if you search for C3A3, you'll land straight into the
byte to patch!)
So, these are the tips for patching future upgrades of
Mr Cool
1. Since the offset for v1.5.0.48 is 000569D1, you should
first jump to 000569D1 and start searching for the
string after that offset
2. Start searching the complete string, if not found, then
reduce it from byte to byte until you find it :)
