I have tried to edit the skin in R2R's crack of softube FET
But when i add the new images back into the dll and save it, DAWs cant see the dll or it crashes...

And there is a standalone freq calculator i like to use, but if i change an icon in it (or even just resave it without changing anything) it doesnt open and says its corrupted..

I have tried with both Resource Hacker & Restorator

Something about how they resave the dll or exe flags it as different & therefore corrupt..

someone please help ive tried & tried & searched...whats happening to trigger the classification of corrupt?

This has worked for many many dlls and exes in the past

 

I think there is something with Softube plugins and You can't edit those dlls.
Try replace images in other dll like Sylenth1 v2. Should working fine.

Softube is a mess inside.
There's many info inside the plugin which not should be there.
Like Peter saved graphics for this plugin on the location:
C:\Users\peter\Pictures\PresetManager\

Or hidden vector graphics.
Do You know They use Adobe Illustrator and Inkscape?
And originally graphics was in vectors but They saved them as bitmap in 96dpi? WTF!?
It's a fuckin mess! Some graphics are cutted with letters. Like game textures. But in game textures it's normal. In plugin not.
First time I was seeing something like this inside the vst plugin.
What a mess!!!

 

Try with HeavenTools ResourceTuner 2. Not free but it's the best.

 

have you heard something about packers/protectors for executabale files and dynamic link libraries?

 

@Roject yea but im not sure if the uncracked dlls show the gui resources?

@Xupito ok thx, will try the demo

They don't even bother to obfuscate their Softube Central's code. Even the comments aren't removed

 

Crap! I recently uninstalled legal version of Softube Modular.
So I can't check this right now.
I don't wanna install this crap again.
But I'm shure dlls are same as original.

 

nah, same result.

I get a nice readout of whats going on as ResourceTuner is working, maybe i can use that data to find out why its not working

 

Do you know how i can record spurious entries in this data so the hashes etc match with the original dll/exe code?

It must be a simple damn thing to trick the executable with.

Computer = stupid
human = able to overcome

 

Is this is too tough of a problem to get solved on this forum?

 

Should i try again with a more audiosex-friendly question?

-"Nexus3 pleazz?"
-"Omnisphere keygen doesnt work??"
-"Why doesnt R2R crack nexus?"
-"I spent 3 hours making a horrendous techno track i call "deep dark shitbox v4". please listen, comment & subscribe!" /insert big plastic smile
-"Where can i get the fake BIOSTFU tool that members with hours of spare time lie about to repel stupid kid producers?"
-"I am pirates best friend on de internets cos i dont have any in real life , now help with omni plz?? hurry mom say its my bedtime"
