An interesting sh*tpost about someone stealing GTA V mods

Okay, I did admit stealing some mods back when I was active in IV or San Andreas, but that was credited based on whatever mod files that have been made. But on that point, I realized that reuploading someone's work with my own custom edits, even though it's credited to whom it was made, is still tolerable, but somehow a bit disrespectful to the author of the mod. Talk about plagiarism. That being said, preventing plagiarism in this era of IoT and the upcoming IoE is indeed hard. Avoidable, but hard to get rid of. No one knows that what you made, even though it's your own doing , is a plagiarism against the existing work. Not just the college work for your graduation (Final Project?), but mods too. So, to start this post, I found one mod by ZiPPO RAID and there's a unique description that directed me to GTAForums thread on where it all started. Don't ask why he used ALL CAPS in the description despite that "i" letter is not capitalized (broke your Ca...

I've been pushing more of the BF2 modding

Image
And now I've pushed more of the modding capability for BF2, and what I got is the same exception code like the last one. Much, much different than the case with GOL MSR one. At this point, the game is beyond bricked situation that modding capabilities of this game also have limitations like some GTA games without any user bugfixes, although frankly, no debugging makes this game's error hard to be traced. It only crashed pointing to the main executable (and not RendDX9.dll - this only happen if game is loading a mesh file that isn't exist, or the mesh contain geometry errors) with exception code 0x80000003 (software corruption or faulty configuration in one of the Windows driver files). I assume it has something to do with game memory, which used to load maximum number of objects that can be loaded in game. BF2 is an old game that has limitations but surprisingly stable (no memory leak, random crashes on some map because of the bots). The case of this is that BF2...

I've done what I can to mod BF2 to its maximum potential

Looks like the mod installation and data editing has been done. I've done what I can to mod Battlefield 2 to its maximum potential. Excluding the vehicle mods/add-ons, there are over 200 to 300 weapon mods/add-ons that have been installed correctly (i.e. editing the files that's problematic to prevent ingame crashes). Few are not installed because of game crashing, instabilities, or weird data handling. So to say, there's not much I can do to edit more of them; the rest is now on vehicle mods/add-ons. A lot of weapons seemed to be (re)worked from the ground-up and used cool animations that I've never seen before. And now, there's a weapon that's quite interesting, particularly as a substitute of an anti-air weapon, though I've never seen it in actual gameplay where this weapon was came from. RORSCH X1. This weird weapon (a railgun) is one of a kind in its game where it's coming from: Battlefield 4 . Just like many weapons that implement electroma...

Weapon add-ons (which one?) crashed the game

I'm thinking which one that caused the problem with the game crashing during objects loading (around 0 to 15%) in Battlefield 2 I just mod on the original game. The crash is without explanation in Windows 10, but it always left a log concerning what happened in Event Viewer. The crash itself is unusual. Rather than pointing to RendDX9.dll (which typically caused by missing mesh file, usually in *.bundledmesh extension), it's pointing to the main executable itself, with the error/exception code similar to what happened when a mesh file is missing, 0x80000003. The exception code 0x80000003 is usually found on a corrupted file when an executable is loading it, the library (which is corrupted) the executable is using, or the executable itself is corrupted. Typically your common sh*t days when your PC got so many virus or malware/ransomware that you have to nuke it (reinstall your OS) because the system files are infected. I encountered that long time ago, where the viruses wer...

Okay... this is legit site for getting ALL expansion packs

Okay, I tested the archive; it's in 7Z format, should be nothing to worry about unless WinRAR is sh*tting with me. I've downloaded 7-Zip and tested it out just in case. In case you wondering, this is the continuation of the last post that I'm concerning its legitimacy for providing free downloads for part-time gamers. The complete edition it's providing has nothing to worry about; this is the legit site I've been downloading from MEGA cloud storage, shown very first from the Google Search list. Now the problem itself lies to the user who doesn't have MEGA account. This is indeed a bit of problematic, because the free quota for downloading for public, non-registered user is VERY limited; if it's exceeded, you'll have to register a new account, or sign in if you have one. Signing in to MEGA is always a good start for downloading some stuffs that's big-sized in MEGA, let's say... a 4 GB file that's important for you. The servers have free...

This site has unknown legitimacy for BF2 download

I decided to reset this BF2 installation on my old PC as well and install a fresh new copy of BF2, but turns out, I don't bring anything except new clothes still in plastic wrap today. So, I had to download it from the internet. I found one particular site, apparently storing full version of the game, along with the DLC/expansion packs as well. Well, ain't that something? However, something that concerned me is, I have MEGA account, I used it in case of emergency, used MEGASync to offload it from the DL server, and I saw no red flag. Could it mean it's password protected like those I've been hassling before in the previous post? If this is indeed true, I have no idea where else I could take a look for this 14-year-old game that I first played in maybe 2009 or so when I got my first PC, which is the old one I'm using at the apartment. I won't be trusting Internet about downloading sh*t anymore if so. Having an account there means I can open more places to ...

Legitimately bypassing this?

Image
I've seen this video in my private browsing that uploaded last year; idk if this can work on files shared from someone that... ehh... not legitimately mine. Idk, this is giving me chills. I'd be risking my MediaFire account for something this crazy (except if you buy that legit on Amazon) by bypassing that stupid error code that blocks the part 5 of the download (whereas others aren't). I highly doubt that part 5 of the download is probably something malicious that MediaFire flag it as a ToS violation. And I have no idea if this can work with other user, especially a folder that is shared to everyone (but I guess I'll give it a shot and get back to this post for updates. The only way to do this is to log on to the user in question and download manually from that user (using the bypass method on that YT video). I've tried and it works on shared folder, but no... it still doesn't work, AT ALL. I'll try another shot after I visit the guy who's upl...
