Sometimes I wonder why do some games get cracked so fast while some others are on their hundreds of days uncracked.
probably different versions of denuvoSometimes I wonder why do some games get cracked so fast while some others are on their hundreds of days uncracked.
Resistance is futile
Crackwatch is gon be happy tonightfirst +Denuvo title cracked
Good lord, didn't that game have like... three layers of DRM? Kudos to them for being able to crack it.first +Denuvo title cracked
Release Notes:
This is an experimental Proof of Concept release where the Denuvo DRM and VMProtect have been removed completely from the main executable.
The main idea of this project was to verify whether Denuvo affects CPU usage and overall performance of this game. We noticed faster loading times but will leave the rest of the performance comparison battle to others
Here is a small tech summary of what has been done:
- VMProtect is fully removed (30 VM entry points)
- Denuvo is fully removed (104 VM entry points)
- All required PE directories are fully restored (exports, imports, exceptions, TLS)
- Fixed around 500k absolute & relative code and data pointers
The team would like to send out special thanks to our hard working mate who is responsible for this huge project. This would not have been possible without you! You rock man!
It is indeed, especially if performance is better.this is big
Holy Fuck they actually did it.this is big

not yet, noAny report on performance? would be interesting to see how it affect performance with ubi games since they're usually the games with heavy cpu usage.
frametime spikesWhat are the white vertical lines which are only there with Denuvo?
Like Lashman says, framertime spikes. This means that in theory, even if the framerate looks similar, the non-Denuvo version will feel smoother to play. Frametime spiking can result in a game that is supposedly running close to 60fps but it feels jerky and uneven. The idea that Origins and potentially Odyssey has microstutters due to Denuvo is annoying. I get why they're using Denuvo, and I'd point out that Odyssey's DLC still isn't cracked. So it is effective, at least currently. But you're visibly harming the core gameplay experience. Every spike on the graphic is the game feeling odd. They need to evaluate gamefeel when implementing DRM. This is a very similar problem to what one of those fighting games had, where Denuvo was hammering a register and causing a brief hitch when certain moves were performed.What are the white vertical lines which are only there with Denuvo?
This is great. But didn't we have multiple Denuvo tests with games that removed it by the publisher?
well then ...
i don't think any of them measured frametimes (but i might be wrong) ... just general framerateThis is great. But didn't we have multiple Denuvo tests with games that removed it by the publisher?
The recent Assassin's Creed games were particularly contentious examples because of how CPU heavy they are. With the possible exception of Hitman, none of the games with pre-post Denuvo test cases had the kind of CPU-wrecking strain an Assassin's Creed game has. Very few companies make games like this. Even fewer use Denuvo and then remove it so we can compare.This is great. But didn't we have multiple Denuvo tests with games that removed it by the publisher?
That's exactly what I found using somewhat rigorous (not what I'd put in a paper, but far better than what I see many popular youtubers doing) testing methods for FF15 in my PC gamer article where we also had a non-DRM executable. (And also that loading times might be affected)Someone linked me a report that disputes the earlier benchmark and conclusions drawn from it. It's pretty in depth. Basically, the performance values are within margin of error.
nope ... both of the touchpads are completely dead using the official configuration ... just the left stick and the buttons workDid they implement native steam controller trackball input? I always felt that a ball-rolling game would benefit significantly from that.
yeah, pretty muchwelp , kinda waste to just do the basic config when they dint even tried t implement native xinput and only rely on steaminput
yeah the game does not have it as per the warnings in the page.
lol sega ... why did you even bother, lmao
good job, lmaoEpic just pulled the Detroid demo from the store because it allowed to start the full game with the same Denuvo activation with a simple exploit (Heavy Rain and Beyond had similar exploits)...
Clearly pulling it from the store will remove it from the internet.Epic just pulled the Detroid demo from the store because it allowed to start the full game with the same Denuvo activation with a simple exploit (Heavy Rain and Beyond had similar exploits)...
I'd imagine they also disabled new activations... IF they're competent.Clearly pulling it from the store will remove it from the internet.
That said the demo just reappeared for ppl who allrdy had in their library before it was pulled and the exploit still works as well for them ."The demo is currently unavailable due to technical issues that are being resolved. It should be back in the Epic Games Store next week."

I wonder if I could play the full game through with the demo exe and get better load times.For the use of license management, when accessed for the first or following times of activation, this game may access a server, etc. provided by a third party besides Capcom.
this would only help with AssOranges ... all the other denuvo cracks only bypass it, not completely remove it (sadly)This explains why modern games takes so damn long to start. After launching a game I have to stare at a splash screen for a whole minute before the game even starts. Makes me consider downloading cracks for games I own just to reduce load times.
