January 18, 200818 yr As Jean Luc points out, titles that use a .lic file for validation will not work when installing with the extracted exe from the wrapper. Why all of the titles don't is an interesting question.Regards,Jim Karn
January 19, 200818 yr Author Not that it is a huge deal, but I believe you are slightly mis-representing how I used the term "slippery slope" and then conjoining two or more posts.I was attempting to address the moral relativism about how "such and such shouldn't really be considered piracy because of y" which is inherent in any "scale of bad behavior". I dont see a fallacy there. Once one starts splitting those hairs; one is not far from justifying anything on the scale. So in that sense the term is accurate - you are on the slope and the only way to go is down the list.My use of the term was also from the point of view of not attempting to address a specific problem of piracy or any motivation behind it - just about how splitting things into some "sliding scale" to try to justify some subset of the "bad behavior" doesn't really work. It is either bad or not. There is no mid-ground in my opinion. ex-Aces Lead PM, FSX SP1 and SP2 ex-Intel LRB native title enablement, ex Intel Gaming and Graphics Samples PM now Graphics and Multicore PM in Visual Computing Software Enabling.
