Dragon Nest SEA: Disable Game Protect Kit patch

[antifoo]

This patch disables GPK (anticheat rootkit) for Dragon Nest SEA (Cherry Credits client).
It works by replacing the Game Protect Kit DLL.

Thought I'd share it in case anyone is interested.

Advantages over game executable patch:
Game .exe does not need to be repatched after updates.

(GPK can be disabled easily by patching the game executable, but I thought this is a nicer way and a longer term solution. Seems this DLL doesn't get updated so often.)

Usage:

1. Make a backup of your GPKitClt.dll just in case.
2. Replace the current GPKitClt.dll with my patched version.
3. Enjoy the game without GPK.

Note: You would probably also want to remove the GPK driver. This patch only prevents it from being used.

Or you could just compile the DLL your self. ;)
I'll post this direct link for now:

Hashes aren't matching...I'll rescan them myself

Hashes were of the one (and only) file contained in the archive. You can see that virus total gives the same hash for the file inside.
I guess I could have uploaded it without packing. ;)

Sorry but you have to scan the whole pack so that the scans have the same hash.

[cis300]

question xD
what is a + for it?
like i can do Gold hack with cheat engine now?!?!

[Kevin Atienza]

Thankz dude

[Time2hammer]

well done
I try to hack it but can't....
can't make a gold hack
