Process Patcher by thewd. 31.I.2000. Process Patcher 3.60 (182K). News: - Full Windows 2000 support. - Increased Parsing & Patching Engine robustness. - Added patch information parameters - PatchInformation, PatchAuthor and PatchContactInformation Information is accessed by using the /displayinfo argument (this is an attempt to stop people bugging me about patches that don't work and were not written by me). - Added RetryCount parameter which determines the number of times the memory patch is attempted. - Introduced StealthMode parameter, which attempts to hide this process patcher from the target process (Windows 9x Only). - so many other internal enhancements. This is a great new command-line tool that allows a Win32 application to be patched during its runtime. This procedure might be required because the executable may be compressed or encrypted and known unpackers fail to decompress or decrypt the executable to a readable form. Also, as this tools doesn't change the stored executable, all CRC checks performed on this executable will succeed. Included Configuration File Encryption Utility. R!SC's Process Patcher by R!SC.

Search'n'replace patchers

ByteHunter by The+Q & MrNop. 13.I.1999. ByteHunter v2.0 (39K). There is more and more program with frequent updates, that mean that when u cracked 1.1, the 1.2 will be out in few days.. Isn't that some lose of time? So the idea is, instead bytepatch particular offset, to look for a string and replace it with another.. There is not so much sources of progs like this, and most of them are slow.. really slow (TurboPascal suxx sometimes ;) So, we (MrNop & The+q) decided to code one, The+q do the main work, and i added some improvements, and THE_q finally improved all :) It's one of the fastest Search & Replace procedure i ever see, and i think u will be happy to use it.. so take care of it :) Since v2.0 the engine is coded in pure WinAsm32 for really fast work, and nicer interface.

I wanted to have a quick patch maker and besides I wanted it to make small patches. Thus I wrote pkpm. Related links: - Private COMpiler. - Patch Creation Wizard. - CodeFusion. - aPATCH. - Viper.
