Okay, I've got a friend who absolutely refuses to trust this mod since he claims the A2.exe file has been cracked and all kinds of information added to it and we have no idea what that could be and omg it could be something evil.

Despite the rather obvious fact that if it was something evil, surely SOMEONE would've noticed by now, he refused to believe.

So, what changes have been made since he claims there must be a huge number of them.

erm your guess is as good as mine, it was rumour that they changed the .EXE, the rumour also says they got permission from Mad doc though...

apparently they changed a couple of the hnadlers to allow their launcher to intercept and run on top of armada.

your have to hope optec or docacola say really but your be luck yon a subject like this

This **** was already discussed in some other forum, A2files or something like that :S

Basically conclusions were:
Mad Doc allowed them to crack the exe and it is no secret (as they were(are) looking for someone who knows something about the "real time cracking - I think its called that anyway." And it was on this site as well :)

Yep, the Launcher makes your hardware produce nanoprobes we will use in a future release to introduce world domination

the FO Launcher is completely save. of course your friend wont believe me but it is ;) its neither cracked nor hacked nor do we spy anything of you, attack you or do what ever **** you could imagine.

This topic came once up with a negative taste claiming illegal code was found in the exe file with some nonsense screenshot proof of a memory dump that actually meant nothing.

If you'd like to get a general overview over what the loader does, feel free to contact me via IM. I can assure you, it's nothing you have to worry about.
