    Err... my thanks go to R2R for the many good moments I had with their awesome releases. :wink: That's for sure.

    But this new certificate system, no matter they consider it necessary for whatever reasons, it's too confusing for old people like me. :guru: I'd better stay away from such new experiences. That's life, I guess. :(

    Good luck to you all in these new days. :like:

    If you unpack an old keygen .exe (a wrapper basically?), can you somehow run the .DLL/keygen with WitchWand instead of using the old wrapper?

    Seriously, no idea. I would say 6 physical cores with high clock speed. Say >= 4.2Ghz sustained. Or 8 physical cores. With AVX/AVX2. Not counting Slow/Economy cores.

    That's fast enough to do plenty. Obviously the 5950x still kicks ass.

    Edited: repackaged

    That being the reason why I'm not really up to date on the new R2R. I Haven't d/l much of anything since all the Neural DSP drops around holiday season of last year.

    But when i do see something i like I'm sure it'll take a min to catch up.

    Hi, retired software engineer here. I have a couple things to say about this "R2R Software" if y'all wanna hear an unbiased opinion on the matter.
    This stuff is all levels of shady, it's not easy on the user, nor does it pretend to be transparent, it's intentionally confusing and crafted around impracticallity, and that is what triggers my alarm. I don't need to get cocky or technical to tell ya' folks that when companies start doing shit like this is when they usually are trying to go down a dark and dirty rabbit hole called f***ing the user.

    If y'all need peace, this is not a virus, the software acts legit and works as intended, but that doesn't remove that layer of confusion that the so-called "witches", left. It's a nifty tool, yeah, the same one that can turn into a bomb as desired. Previous keygens weren't the answer either, they were easily stolen, injected with malware and reuploaded to screw people, the false positives and general AV hysteria did not provide any additional help to that paranoia. If you have your players where they should be, you know damn well that the focus R2R used for this tools wasn't that one, it was to prevent copycat activity from other warez groups and the dirt being thrown upon their name.

    My point is, no one is inherently incorrect here, the software right now is "clean" but it can definitely stop being at any moment. It's uncertain whether someone can hijack the group and steal their software to lure trusting users into a trap, i also would advise, until the end of my days, to NOT install any type of certificates on your machine that come from any unofficial source, at least with the black suits you have someone to blame, here it can be the fate of infinity if things go south.

    To summarize, it is not a better decision doing this to the users, it feels unnatural to me, like trying to play both cards at the same time, "i'll be good until i'm not, you all better trust me or leave me, i don't care". A sort of "the end justifies the means" approach. Lack of transparency didn't create this scene, trust did.

    Please, and i really mean it, please watch out with these kinds of things. Even if the warez scene has no evil, someone who tries to harm it will. A lot of folks out there want to measure their "stick" in terms of abilities, specially in this field.

    @Stroji, I have the same thoughts. I use it but... A system is a system. We don't trust a system, do we? Everything is good until it is not. It is nothing new. I use it, and will do, but my computer will stay offline and without vulnerable data on it. We believe in the groups because their cracked software works. One day, the matrix can crack. We'll see how the time treats us.

    I really don't get it what is so complicated with R2R system. Install it once, run the included keygen in the releases and even better, the keygen doesn't produce anymore false positive alarms in Antivirus apps because for Windows it doesn't appear anymore as an executable software. You can register all plugins at once if it's from the same creator, so what else do you want?
    And as for the opaque nature of the new R2R system—you either have to trust it or you don't. But I don’t see any difference from before—practically every R2R keygen was falsely flagged as malware by antivirus software, and then you had to trust that it was just a false alarm—meaning you had to disable the antivirus for the installation or define exceptions, and then still click “Install” with blind faith.
    What worries me more is that while R2R updates all of its well-known plugins quickly and easily, it apparently no longer touches plugins that are truly new or seem a bit more complicated—even those from major, well-known manufacturers. Take Serum 2 or SoundToys, for example—there’s never been an R2R release for the new versions of these two plugins, and there are plenty of other examples like that. They crack the stuff they’re familiar with—the stuff they’ve always cracked—but that’s pretty much it.
    In the past, there were more major releases from R2R where they were the first—or even the only ones—to provide a usable crack; today, that has become much less common. Of course, we can only speculate as to why this is the case—perhaps they no longer have access to the originals, or maybe they simply lack the knowledge; perhaps it’s the seasoned crackers who have retired—who knows?
