Hacker 100%

StingRay · 24 December 2019, 13:22

As written in this thread I made a fully working version of Hacker back in 2012. Only thing missing was the crack intro, I have finally fixed this as well so today, more than 7 years after I did most of the work I can finally release a fully working Hacker version.

Merry Christmas everyone.

Wow... I didn't realise there wasn't a fully cracked version. Are you saying you had this for many years simply because you didn't have cracktro? Lol great work!

NeoHippie2016 · 24 December 2019, 13:37

Thank you, Sir!

Nightshft · 24 December 2019, 13:39

Thanks StingRay! Happy Christmas!

Edit: Nice cracktro and the game works fine.

Exactly. Cracked and fixed the game back in July 2012 and once the interesting stuff (i.e. fixing/cracking) was done I somehow didn't bother to code a crack intro and didn't want to release the game without one so it collected dust on my HD for more than 7 years.

A new cracktro is always welcome

Merry Christmas to all

Haha that's great and a nice Christmas gift!

For some reason, this story sounds very familiar to me... :P
Nice one Sting, thanks for finally releasing this as a little Xmas present!

Good work, as is usual, the cracktro is superior to the game

Tigerskunk · 24 December 2019, 17:48

Thanks a lot, Stingray...

Have a nice christmas!

I guess this is a common problem for a lot of coders/crackers, doing the actual work is fun and interesting but then the motivation quickly disappears. To tackle this problem a bit I have started to outsource the intro coding so I don't always have to code them myself. That however means one has to wait for the other coders to finish their work. A somewhat vicious circle.

Well, considered its age I think the game is quite OK.

Thanks. Great cracktro.

aszu · 31 December 2019, 17:03

i believe there might be more cracktros coming, as well as some bigger productions:

stet · 02 January 2020, 02:54

Looks like this is currently PAL only. Any chance of an NTSC version?

quantum8 · 02 January 2020, 04:54

Fantastic, thanks!

Game is and runs on NTSC, the intro is PAL though. But at least it runs.

Sorry, forgot about making the crack intro NTSC compatible. I have adapted it and made it work on NTSC. Try attached version, it should (hopefully) work fine for you guys in 60Hz land.
