    I played RE9 recently thanks to voices38 crack.

    Even the achievements were working, insane experience for something pirated.

    It’s not the same convenience of Steam, but you can achieve similar:

    • I used a PowerShell script with rclone + Ludosavi backup to backup all my game saves periodically.
    • Add to Steam as non-Steam game to get controller support, screenshot and recording features.
    • And Hydra launcher (or Achievement Watcher) to save my played hours and get achievements notifications.

    Pro: You actually own your data instead of Steam owing it. All tools are open source and you can backup the database files.
    Cons: Less convenience.

    Already 100% all achievements.

        Ik, but RE9 was one of the few games cracked properly. That and Black Myth Wukong today.

        Given the rate voices38 is doing it, I dare to say he’s cracking all the rest, he probably figured out something at this point, just need to reapply the same skills on different Denuvo games.

          Thanks, I didn’t know black myth was cracked today. I certainly hope you’re right since these hypervisor bypasses seem to be soaking up all of the attention instead of proper cracks.

              Wow. I might try it since the game is expensive right now and I wanna see if I’ll even enjoy it considering some people compare it to soulslike.

          The bypass probably allows more extensive dynamic analyses to be run on the running process. Crack development was seriously hindered by Denuvo’s limit of five activations per day.

        The voices38 crack is not a hypervisor bypass though.

      I also played voices38’s RE9, was great until raccoon city, then performance became unplayable, even on low settings. Quite a shame, I don’t think I can finish it.

        For me only the RPD was having massive FPS drops, I was getting 20FPS, but there’s no big fight there so it was playable.
