The Humble Guys - UK's finest
Old Release notes : version 2.10 to 2.47
===================
2.47.00 Removed pause screen from start.
2.47.01 There are 76 new cracks added to CRACK1.DAT.
2.47.02 Following request have allowed backspace to be used when typing
in directory name.
2.47.03 Have included a 'Special Case' dialogue screen for one crack
that require specific intructions.
2.47.04 Fuck me!!. I had some feedback on one of the cracks.
If the Trump Castle 2 crack doesn't find the byte change
necessary.... try changing the file TC2.EXE..
Hex offset 2229B to EB 02 (Hex 2229B should be 9A if not don't use)
Hex offset 232C7 to 31
2.47.05 CRACKAID.COM has become CRACKAID.EXE due to me exceeding the 64k
*.COM boundary.It LZ'exes to under 7k now!!
Version 2.47 to 2.70
====================
2.70.01 Have added 19 new cracks to CRACK1.DAT
2.70.02 Have altered a typing error in crack for Terminator 2.
2.70.03 Have included a couple of cracks in MORECRAC.KS
2.70.04 er.. that's all I could be bothered to do.
Despite me saying that version 2.47 would be the last release, I have decided
to release this version, primarily as a bug fix for the Terminator 2 crack.
Thought I might as well add another page load of cracks while I was at it.
Feedback
========
Complaints about the screen speeds in version 2.47. Too slow apparantly.
Reply - This program is purely for the removal of copy-protection, not
an entry in the 'prettiest program of the year' awards. Fuck off.

Further comments
=================
It has been commonly suggested that the reason no-one bothered to give any
feedback to the CrackAid suite of programs, is that this software has been
posted almost exclusively on 'elite' boards, and the users of these boards
have no need for this sort of program, as they can readily access pre-cracked
warez. Therefore, no fucker bothers downloading it in the first place.
I think that there is probably an element of sound logic in this argument, so
have, therefore, shelved the release of the 'crack-em-yerself' tutorial with
the uncracked *.EXE files to do your worst on. Seems little point.
An extended thank you to the 1/2 dozen or so people who contributed some sort
of feedback to this CrackAid project. ( constructive or not )...
Also, I trust that someone, somewhere, finds this program useful.
Adieu, Rawhide -=The Humblest of them All=-
Usual old crap
==============
The sole intention of this software is to remove the annoyance of having
to dig out your manual/code-wheel/key diskette everytime you want to play
a game. Also for legimate purchasers of software who have mislaid their
manual amongst all the other crap round their PCs.
It is certainly NOT my intention, that anyone should use this software to
make/distribute illegal copies of software. If you are using this program
for this purpose, then you are very naughty indeed.
Please do not use this software to deprive those smashing ladies and
gents of the software houses, with their BMWs and 5 bedroom detatched houses
in the stockbroker belt out of their hard-earned cash. Support them.
To all the kisses I've snatched, and vice versa,
WhipCRACKaway....
