Default disc protection issues

vista 32 by default stops a program from using more than 2 gb ram, so I went into the sh3.exe file with cff explorer and modified it to accept more than that. It works great for all my other stuff like FSX and IL2. But now, the stupid protection program for sh3 keeps saying my .exe file is corrupted, and I should reinstall the program. Can I bypass this at all?

Is there any way I can use this tweak?

I don't know if it's legal to upload a .exe file and give you the link here in the forum. :hmm:

Some newer versions of SHIII didn't come with copyprotection. See http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/show...ght=protection

cheers

If you want I can email you with a version that doens't ask for the cd to be on the drive. Made it myself.

Come on guys! You know either Neal or rdp is going to come down upon you like the wrath of heaven for discussing this in an open forum.

Didn't any of you read the rules?

That's not quite true.
The first link I posted, one year ago, before reading the rules, was a link to the main page of mininova. A torrent portal.

I didn't even posted a direct link to a download, just to the main page.

A moderator came, pissed all over me and gave me a warning.

It was scary...
