![]() Won't detail the whole interface creation process, but just the content of the structure and what I noticed. What I did was to continue tracing the code past the -eac-nop-loaded processing part. Then I was curious even further: what's the actual trigger in-game that tells the game EAC has been initialized or not? How does the game know, when attempting to unlock an achievement, that EAC is disabled? The answer came a few minutes later. Aha, so that's the developers' trick to quickly test out the achievement system while EAC is disabled Naughty naughty. What do you know, upon completion, I got the achievement. ![]() So I then started the game with this command-line and and replayed the first Reach mission. So it checks if the game has been launched with -eac-nop-loaded command-line. Then the command-line the game was launched with is read and a function run. What the piece of code above does is to fake obtaining the a fictitious API address (MOV ECX,EAC - these guys think they're Blizzard there's a spoof with Blizzard's Warden doing a similar GetProcAddress call, years before EAC even existed, an easter-egg exposed in a video I've seen at some conference), which will of course fail. So I went back to the code above.Īfter loading the 圆4. Considering I've basically 'bypassed' EAC and all's green, I wondered why nothing happened. There are achievements for finishing each of the missions in the campaign. So with that in mind I played 1-2 Reach missions and saw no pop-ups from Steam upon completion. or just look for 'EasyAntiCheat' in the string references) Then it will load the EAC 圆4 library, as there's an initialization function right here: If I manually and directly load MCC-Win64-Shipping.exe, it will skip mcclauncher.exe. dll which loads the driver will also hash out all its dependencies. Surprise, the DLL works, but that isn't sufficient. dll has more exports exposed than the one I used at the time. In the sense that I was curious if the current. dll with the one I wrote for Wildlands still works. The first thing I did in my quest was to see if replacing the 圆4. Lots of reading will help understand what's going under the hood. ![]() dll downloads on initialization, unpacks, loads up, hooks ObCallbacks to disallow system-wide driver installing, etc. The 4th component isn't quite visible from starters and that is the. Similarly, my interest in EAC targeted 3 out of 4 major components that are exposed: mcclauncher.exe (launches the anti-cheat, then the game), EasyAntiCheat_x86.dll and EasyAntiCheat_圆4.dll. dll for each of the games in the series and EAC itself. exe (MCC-Win64-Shipping.exe), the engine. I was interested in 3 components: the UE4-built GUI. You'd need just the DLLs alone replaced in the game_folder\EasyAntiCheat_folder.īack to MCC. That would basically eliminate the need for the launchers you've seen with most trainer sites. I've been looking for a while now into emulating both the x86 and 圆4 EAC DLLs for single-player purposes. You'll learn in a bit what that trick is. So there should've been some quick, "dirty" way. If achievements were available only when EAC is enabled, then they wouldn't be able to debug-test them. That kinda started me thinking a bit: of course developers would want to see if achievements work without EAC on. Been reading here and there for some solutions, before I'd go down into it (makes no sense to do anything if someone's already achieved this) and found a post where someone claimed they've got some loader that allows achievements to pipe through while EAC is disabled. achievements won't trigger on various events if EAC is off. However, there's the possibility to run the game without it. Recently bought this game and started playing, noticing it's protected by EAC. Hello folks, been a while since I've wrote a tutorial. ![]() Through Yiu-fai we felt the human emotions just boil through of having to see a love that only hurt. Second, he focused the camera on only one of the characters (Yiu-fai) to enhance that sensation about Po-wing's indiscretions. So, not only was it uneasy to watch this relationship disintegrate in front of our eyes, but to be lost in a unfamiliar city only made it worse. First, he took these two vacationing men from Hong Kong and set them in a foreign city. Then, Wong did several things that just impressed me and kept my attention focused on the film. I didn't see the love between our two characters at all in the beginning, but that was because it was to show the destruction of their relationship. I was shocked, disturbed, and on-edge the entire time. If this very sexual opening doesn't set the tone for the rest of the film, I don't know what will. While I have been impressed with his other films like In the Mood for Love and his work on the BMW series, The Hire, this film literally blew me out of the water. This film would not have worked if it weren't for the apparent brilliance of director Kar Wai Wong. From the visual opening to the amazing use of several different cinematography techniques, Happy Together may not suit everyone, but to this film junkie it opened a new door in Hong Kong cinema. It is about love, but about the difficulties that surround a dying relationship. It is ironic that the title of the film is Happy Together, because it completely challenges the true themes. ![]() This was more than just a gay film, but instead a story about emotions and loves, coupled with all the turmoil that surrounds it. This movie had everything a cinephile would desire like strong characters, a non-linear story, and the brazen truth about modern society's relationships. If you found yourself shocked by the opening sequence or annoyed by the drastic image of the film, then you definitely are not a film junkie. Transforming your typical picture of a straight couple and violently handing us the relationship of Yiu-fai and Po-wing using untraditional cinematography is only scratching the surface of this picture. ![]() Just when you thought that you knew everything about Hong Kong cinema or about romantic adventures in film, director Kar Wai Wong steps forward and eliminates all boundaries. ![]() ![]() Since the first installment was released in 1995, the Tales series has grown to include the main entries and multiple spin-offs that derive multiple gameplay and narrative elements from the main entries. As of 2022, the series has shipped over 25 million units worldwide. The series has been gaining popularity in the West since the release of Tales of Symphonia, which is still considered one of its most popular games. While generally seen as a niche series in English-speaking regions, Tales is considered to be among the most important JRPG franchises in Japan. Most of the main Tales games have been localized for North America and Europe, although almost none of the spinoff titles have been released abroad. The series was created by Yoshiharu Gotanda. Multiple people have become linked with the series, including character designers Kōsuke Fujishima and Mutsumi Inomata, producers Hideo Baba and Makoto Yoshizumi, and composer Motoi Sakuraba. The series is characterized by its art style, which draws from Japanese manga and anime, and its action-based fighting system called the "Linear Motion Battle System". While entries in the series generally stand independent of each other with different characters and stories, they are commonly linked by their gameplay, themes and high fantasy settings. First begun in 1995 with the development and release of Tales of Phantasia for the Super Famicom, the series currently spans seventeen main titles, multiple spin-off games and supplementary media in the form of manga series, anime series, and audio dramas. The Tales series is a franchise of fantasy role-playing video games published by Bandai Namco Entertainment (formerly Namco), and developed by its subsidiary, Namco Tales Studio until 2011 and presently by Bandai Namco Studios.

![]() Maybe I could even write a script to curl the adblock feeds and keep it up-to-date automatically…(?). Got it.Īfter I learn about HOSTS files, I hope to use them soon. Use HOSTS is for basic, straightforward stuff, but it’s not foolproof. If an ad has an IP address in mind for a resource, some app does a DNS lookup itself on an outside server, it's no problem to get around your settings. In certain circumstances things could become slower and lots of stuff will be missed. (And I wouldn’t be surprised if that description had technical inaccuracies as well.) Butĭon't rely on HOSTS and a proxy alone for basic privacy/adblocking. I know gateways have something to do with “splitting” a single IP address into many on a subnetwork, but not much more than that. This project makes it pretty easy to do this if you've got a Linux machine or perhaps your router/gateway you can use as a DNS server. I can guess that it sounds like adding a blacklist to my router, but I don’t really know how to run custom software on a router all I know how to do is use the shameful, frustrating, horrible web UI to poke around the router settings (many of which I also don’t understand). More network ignorance here! :) I don’t really understand this. If you want to do this to the "whole network" you could use dnsmasq on your router and DNS blackhole bad domains with that same list of bad hostnames. I’ll start reading up after I finish this post. I think I remember hearing about a HOSTS file, but I don’t know what it is. ![]() Oh…see, this is why I said “I’ve never been great with networking” in my original post. ![]() Update it semi-often, uBlock has a good reference list. Probably a nice guy but he can man-in-the-middle you into thinking he is your bank website if he decided to or he were hacked.Īdditionally install a HOSTS file. It has you trust their certificate to make it work. Rather, I just longed for the system-wide protection offered by GlimmerBlocker, and wondered if it would be possible to abstract out a piece of uBlock that could take care of the fastest, easiest blocking on a system-wide level. I hope I didn’t give the impression that I wanted to replace uBlock as a browser extension with my suggestion. You mentioned using other stuff in conjunction with uBlock a couple of times. Still, use this in conjunction with uBlock. It has been around forever and people use it, lots of projects adapt it for various things. It's a multi-platform, ad-blocking, privacy protecting HTTP proxy. I read everything, but I’ll limit my response to the most important points.ĭo check out Privoxy. Thanks for reading this long post!, and may The Source™ be with you.ĭaaaamn, you for the reply of unsurpassed detail! I just want it to protect as much as possible. Still, I love uBlock’s user-empowering mission, and its dedication to integrity and performance. If this is a naïve request, sorry about that I’ve been immersed in the Web since the late 90s, but I’ve never been great with networking itself. (Or better yet, having a dedicated machine running uBlock to protect an entire network.) Rather than protecting individual browsers on each computer, I love the idea of uBlock protecting the whole computer. Obviously, the scope would probably require a separate project. Would it be ( theoretically) possible to adapt uBlock into some kind of system-wide HTTP(S?) proxy? But in spite of its large HTTPS shortcoming, there was something I miss dearly about having system-wide ad blocking. Today, I use uBlock and absolutely love it, and don’t really keep up with GlimmerBlocker any more. GlimmerBlocker’s website even banks on this, stating that ads were not likely to use HTTPS because of the additional overhead. When GlimmerBlocker was first released, most ads were sent over HTTP. for technical reasons, it was unable to block (or do anything with) HTTPS requests.input for future development was not easy (only 1 developer, only reachable through email, no community discussion).it was written in Java (which is seldom installed on Macs these days).it did not rely on SIMBL “extensions” or “hacks”, which was the standard method for Safari users to block ads at the time (before Safari extensions existed).Īt the same time, I lamented some of its drawbacks:.it offered incredible fine-tuning of requests (including modification, which I recognize uBlock deliberately eschews for performance).it was system wide (rather than browser-specific).As a system-wide HTTP proxy, it touted benefits over traditional ad blocking extensions: Several years ago, I used to use GlimmerBlocker. ![]() If you have put in the time going through the various forums you will have found that by necessity most people’s reviews and recommendations are of stations they have owned, so it’s difficult to get the view of someone who is familiar with all the major brands.

Moreover, an important point - self-cleaning occurs already at a speed of 30 m/hr. The tread configuration is such that all impurities literally fly out under the influence of centrifugal force. Open Tread Design - this technology guarantees fast self-cleaning of the tread pattern from dirt, sand, and gravel.This minimizes the likelihood of tire breakdown, which is important given that they are tubeless. In addition, the use of this technology facilitates the rapid removal of stones and debris from the deep grooves of the tread. As a result, the tread grooves get additional resistance to chips and cuts. Stone Bumpers - this technology strengthens the inner walls of the tread grooves.In addition, strength is provided by lateral composite inserts that prevent tire damage when hitting curbs and similar obstacles. To this end, the Grabber X3 tires are manufactured using a durable rubber compound that resists chips and cuts while maintaining structural stability. Sidewall Protection - This technology protects the sidewalls of the tires.Despite its high strength, a tire made with this technology remains flexible at low temperatures. The essence of the technology lies in the use of a particularly durable rubber mixture with increased resistance to cuts and chips. How did the manufacturer manage to combine all these qualities in one product? The answer is simple - all these advantages are guaranteed by the use of progressive technologies that make the Grabber X3 tires one of the best in their price category.Īmong the technologies applied, we note the following:ĭuraGen Technology - This technology ensures the durability of the tire off-road. Moreover, these tires guarantee good handling in different climatic conditions.Īs already mentioned, the Grabber X3 car tires are off-road, all season, and, in addition, strong and durable. When developing tires, the most advanced technological solutions were used, which provided the tire with excellent performance.Īs already mentioned, the Grabber X3 is a universal tire, which means that it rides equally well not only on unpaved surfaces but also on smooth asphalt roads. The tires were designed with the assumption that the vehicles on which they will be installed are heavy and mainly operated on unpaved surfaces - that is, off-road. These tires are specially designed for off-road vehicles and light trucks, which are widely used by American and Canadian farmers. Therefore, today, in the production of Grabber X3 tires, along with American technologies, technologies originating from Western Europe are used and this clearly benefited the quality of the finished product. Not so long ago, the company entered into the German concern Continental AG. It is the oldest car tire manufacturer, operating since 1915. The Grabber X3 is a versatile car tire designed and manufactured by the American company General Tire. And by the way, these tires are made in the USA and this is a significant reason for buying them. So here's the Grabber X3 tubeless all-season tire for high-performance SUVs and pickups. New lug nuts are required to install aftermarket wheels.Ĭheck out the lug nuts has available here - Lug Nuts.Ĭheck out the TPMS sensors has available here - TMPS Sensors.Looking for an all-season SUV tire? And you probably want them to have an aggressive tread pattern and provide excellent grip on various surfaces? There are such tires, and we will tell you about them in this short review.

Just keep in mind when ordering aftermarket wheels, tires and/or lift kits it will likely change the way your vehicle looks, handles, and performs from that of when it was originally equipped from the manufacturer. Practice singing from any point in the scale, giving yourself a reference note:Īnother similar thing I learned from guitarist Rick Stone is to:ġ. Practice singing the intervals UP and Down, giving youself a reference note:ģ. Listen carefully for the half step pitches Fa-Me, Te-DoĢ. Practice singing the Major Scale using the Solfeggio Syllables giving yourself a reference note. I try to sing everything before I play anything - and I'm no singer!įor those new to this I recommend the the following simple exercise can get you on the right path:ġ. One of the things that helped me (and others) is singing. So take your time, be patience with yourself and relax whilst working on ear training! I've seen music students devastated by Ear Training classes and they scramble to recognize what is being played! Yourself time! It's not for nothing that music students at college/university often refer to Ear Training class as Fear Training! Part of the reason for this is that Ear Training Courses, IMHO force people to progress at rates faster than their ears often allow and/or the anxiety produced byĬonstant questioning causes people not to trust their ears. Ear Training is not just a course you tick done that move on etc, it's like playing the guitar, a lifelong practice, which as you practice you get better! Approached in this way, will enable you to relax into it and give With regard to Relative Pitch and Ear Training, this is a big subject! Check Out Ear Training Links for more information. With regard to ear training, try carrying a set of chromatic pitch pipes in your pocket and testing your self on intervals. I have used: Earope as well as Music Box and Earmaster Pro. Also, it's a lot less embarrassing to make mistakes in front of your computer than in front of a teacher or a class. Knew intervals instantly, I had problems with 4-5 note melody dictations where the intervals come in rapid succession. They are usually under $50 and they are so much more versatile than a fixed set of tapes or even a class, because you can tailor it to your own weaknesses. On the other hand, I think that these days the best bet is to buy an ear-training software package. One of the things he does in that course is something he calls "lightening rounds" where he plays intervals very fastĪnd your ear adjusts to hearing the "color" of the interval so you can identify it very quickly (not just intervals, chords and inversions as well). However, I did get his relative pitch training course years ago (it was on cassettes back then, now it's on CD's) and I used it while driving - which really helped me a lot. I have spent time with the Dave L Burge perfect pitch and it never did anything for me except maybe sharpen my awareness. Here are some suggestions to help train the ear taken from various posts in the group. ?Įveryone in the group generally agrees that one of the most important aspects of playing Jazz is having a "good ear". ![]() Remember that note value and enter it into the note data for the aux port 1 data in MegaDRUM Manager.
