Hey guys I just wanna ask if anyone has any info if the invites system(the same which was used in SC2 beta. where if you are invited to the beta you can invite one friend by e-mail) will be used for the D3 beta ?

P.S.
Do you know any site that gives you "free" beta key, when you preorder Diablo 3 ?

What happens when you block the installer from accessing internet ? You should got an error that the installer needs an internet connection, on that click on the yellow exclamation mark and it should ask you for Auth key(used just to allow installation of the game, not your battle.net key), which should be somewhere in the box.

I would watch a full length movie of this

The exact thought that I had when I saw it

I hope that you do realize that after 27.07.2010 EVERYBODY will be able to install and PLAY OFFLINE SC2(ofc the offline play is crap - you can't save your progress, you don't earn achievements, etc.).

So you are saying that the people who bought the game wont earn achievements or wont be able to save their game lol.

Read it again - the thing that I am saying is that everybody will be able to install the game and play offline. Ofc the ppl who bought the game(including me) will be able to save their progress, achivements, etc as long as the client is connected to internet.

Also anybody could claim they "have 8 years of   experience in C mask and psuedo code, not to mention a doctorate in   computer science. I am currently taking classes in electric   engineering". How do you expect us to believe you without proof?

Its not me claiming, its the guy who wrote the post. Ask him(user name was Oblivion or something, the post itself is at page 9 of the "Blizzard is allowing the full client to be downloaded before release!" topic.

The latest news from the Chinese sites are that they are still looking for the key to decrypt the files, BUT they claim that they didn't find anything in the Installer.exe and I dunno if they would be able to find it anywhere else in the install files...

P.S. Check this block scheme it should explain to everyone what is going on with the Installer atm(sry for the crappy look, but I made it in 10 mins, I am at work after all):

I hope that you do realize that after 27.07.2010 EVERYBODY will be able to install and PLAY OFFLINE SC2(ofc the offline play is crap - you can't save your progress, you don't earn achievements, etc.). So the whole "I AM GONNA RELEASE MY CRACK AFTER 27.07.2010" is another one of V7's tries to fool the community. And let me quote this post once more:

Ok, to the people who are trying to crack Blizzard's SC2 - read the following.

MPQ - MoPaQ file archive format in which the files are compressed to decrease space and enhance ease of use.
MPQE - MoPaQ files first used by Blizzard. These files are encrypted.

After playing around with PeID and several plugins I found MPQE files to be encrypted in two ways. One - is a simple crc & header corruption which is easily reversible.

The other, however is a Salsa20 or ChaCha encryption, BOTH of which are as hard to decrypt as Themida 2.x. This encryption requires a 256-bit key which Blizzard DID NOT RELEASE. It is possible to try to crack the key if you have enough knowledge on the subject, but cracking the key could take months or more.

The Sc2 installer WILL DEPROTECT the files WHEN it has the key. So basically, even if you do modify the program so that it will accept any authorization key, the decryption will still require the 256-bit key that BLIZZARD HAS.

Vernam claims he cracked the program in a maximum of 3 days. He also said that he used an emulator server to help him with the cracking.

Why the hell would you need an emulation server if everything except the encryption-key can be accessed locally?

Finally, Blizzard wouldn't release a game before the actual release date with such weak protection that it can be cracked in less then a week!

Also, Vernam, I have 8 years of experience in C mask and psuedo code, not to mention a doctorate in computer science. I am currently taking classes in electric engineering, so denying my argument by calling me a script kiddie (Which is what you say to all logical arguments) will just make you an idiot.

IN SHORT - SC2 CANNOT BE CRACKED BEFORE THE RELEASE DATE!

Doomer the conclusions that you are coming to atm are either wrong or already known. The installer reqs the cd because the only thing in the Installer.rar archive downloaded from that Russian site is the Installer.exe application and Installer UI 1.MPQ, it still needs Installer UI 2.MPQE and Installer Tome 1.MPQE.

Its fine as long as the flaming part is non existent Keep the good tone and everything is fine by me, even if you start the diss if I am gay or not

The idea of this topic is to keep the V7's crack discussion here, not in the Starcraft II Crack topic... as you said:

I wa'nt attacking anybody that   posted on this thread before me. I was just stating a fact. I'm hoping   the rude non respectful people start on here also.

I hope that the rude non respectful ppl spam here not in the crack topic

/OFFTOPIC

The other thread also crashed and burned because some members have no concept of respect and manners. I can see the same happening here.

Actually all the posts that were made above yours were contributing with some info or at least were on topic. But I guess you are right - it all comes to respect and manners like not spamming the topic with useless replies!

So here are my 50 cents:

I don't believe Vernam7 claims that he cracked the installer and that he is the first person outside Blizzard's employers to be playing the SC2 campaign.

Why?

First - he would have made some screenshots of the retail game interface, campaign missions interface, etc. Or a 2 mins video of playing(Sry, but I don't bite the whole "I DON'T WANNA SPOIL YOUR FUN GUYS" thing, few screens or a short video won't spoil the experience for anyone). It will turn all the "skeptics" into fanboys and he won't have to explain himself in "two screens long" posts here at DarkBlizz or at nibbits forums.
Anyway the inability to do so is my 100% proof that all that he is doing is TROLLING...

Second - I don't deny that Vernam7 is actually a skilled VB(.net) coder and I guess a nice guy, who made a FREE LAUNCHER for all the unlucky guys that didn't get a key. But I don't bite that he was able to crack the installer before any of the members of SKIDROW, RELOADED, ViTALiTY, Razor1911. For all that haven't heard those names - those are scene groups with YEARS of experience in reverse engineering.
No offense but comparing Vernam7 to those guys is like comparing me(I am an Informix-4GL programmer) to Vernam7 . The simple truth - VB(.net) Coding skills of V7 >>> mine, as SKIDROW, RELOADED, ViTALiTY, Razor1911's reverse engineering skills >>> V7's.

Third - Making a different account just to defend himself - that is not cool man! There is no doubt that the second account English is "as good as" the V7's(I am not making fun of his skills in English, not everyone here is native English speaker including me and I know that my English sux too). Also the grammar and semantics mistakes of both users are the same, which makes me really suspicious that they are actually the same guy . And that is one more reason that I don't believe him - just release some screens or short video to defend yourself, instead of doing this girl's thing...

First some ground rules:

1. No flaming! No fool language, curses, swears at any of the members of DarkBlizz posting, no matter how much you disagree with them or how mad are you!

2. No SPAM! Posts like: "I agree", "You are right", etc. are not constructive.

...however when you change a   jump address from jz to jnz it opens a screen where you manually enter   the authentication code...

1. They also find authentication key and decription key is the same and get to the screen for manaully entering the authentication code. So everything still boils down to getting the salsa20 decription key.
...

To get to that screen(where you manually enter the auth key) you just need to restrict the SC2 installer from accessing the net(or simply unplug your network cable/turn off your modem). Then when you try to install the game you will get an error explaining that you need the authkey from internet. On that error screen when you click on the yellow triangle(with the exclamation mark on it)  in the bottom right corner and it opens the following screen:





No need to modify the exe in any way to get to that screen...

P.S.
Sry for the lame Paint editing just didn't wanted everyone to see the p0rn that I was downloading

Btw all of those are fakes, aren't they ?




And this video: Starcraft 2 digital download cracked? are all fake

yea , i don't think that somebody could decrypt the files without the keys from blizzard , at least not until game launches

You don't seem to get it. The Auth key will be required just to allow the game install and therefor will be public. The game key(that you will receive within your game's box) has nothing to do with it.
