Jedi Knight 2 & Jedi Academy Multiplayer NoCD/Fixed Exe's. They all miss an important factor and therefore should be nuked.
The multiplayer binarys (jamp.exe/jk2mp.exe) contain a custom protection which checks its data at runtime and computes a 4byte checksum. The game compares it to the original checksum. If the checksum is incorrect the client will recieve a CL_ParsePacketEntity() error midgame (based on a random timer). I have checked all the NoCD/Fixed exe's on GameCopyWorld for both games and none of them circumvent the protection. Heres some proof of the protection: Heres a list of the releases on GCW that dont bypass the protection in jedi knight 2/jedi academy multiplayer.
OK, first off, I DID NOT DOWNLOAD/PIRATE/BORROW this game. I bought it at wal-mart like two years ago. I am at the point in my life where I.

* Jedi Academy v1.01 MP [ENGLISH] No-CD/Fixed EXE * Jedi Academy v1.0 MP [FRENCH] No-CD/Fixed EXE * Jedi Academy v1.0 [ALL] No-CD Patch * Jedi Knight 2 v1.04 [ENGLISH] No-CD/Fixed Update The rest appear to be single player fixes with loaders for multiplayer so im assuming they work providing they dont patch the memory before the CRC is done.

The no cd thing is tricky - I understand that there is some desire to help stop piracy, but there are some real reasons not to use the CD. When I first got JK/MotS years ago, I had a ultra-portable Toshiba, and it had no built-in CD. So to play while I traveled, I needed a no cd solution. JK had one, but I had to download a patch for MotS. Mike LoneRiver, 22:58 น.
