How to Apply Crack?

The games are protected with hard to bypass protections. So there is always need of a Crack to bypass those protections.
Usually the Crack files are included with the game iso or rar archives. The Crack files are usually inside the folders named like Crack, PROPHET, SKIDROW, REDIST, RESOURCES, PATCH, FIX etc.

NOTE: You need to explore the Disk to find this folder (1. right-click on disk/dvd/iso  2. open).

The most common installation of a Crack is to simply copy all files inside the “Crack” folder and then paste it into the folder where you have installed the game and replace the old files (Game directory is usually in C:\Program Files (x86)\Game). Simply follow the instructions as shown in images below.

In the picture shown below, there is a game called “Need for Speed Rivals” installed in that folder. I have copied the files from Crack folder and now i am going to open this folder where my game is installed, and paste those files inside it.

How to change the game language

Follow the step by step guide given below to to change the game language. Please note that it will only change language successfully if the game supports it.

  • Go to the folder where you have installed your game.
  • Find the “.ini” file in that folder and open it.
  • Usually the “.ini” files are with the name of “steam_api.ini” or “steam_emu.ini” or “codex.ini” or “skidrow.ini” or “3dmgame.ini” etc.
  • If you have enabled to hide the common extensions of files, then you will not be able to see the ini extension. Only the names will be visible to you. For example “steam_api”.
  • The icon for these files looks usually like a text icon.
  • Right click on the ini file and click on “Open with” and select “Notepad” to open it.
  • Search for the line with language=english.
  • Change the language name as you like. For Example, if you want russian as your language, change english to russian and save the file.
NOTE: The language line in steam_api is usually case sensitive. Write it in lowercase letters. For example, if you want English as your language, write it as “english” all in small letters, as shown below.

If the ini file as not being saved then follow the steps given below.

  2. Paste it into desktop.

just follow the installation instructions given below properly.
Installation instructions:
Download all parts from download links given below.
Right click on the 1st part and click on “Extract here”. Other parts will be automatically extracted.
You need Winrar installed to do it.
OR You can also open iso with software called “UltraISO”. Click on the “Mount to virtual drive” icon on the 3rd bar on top of UtraISO to mount it. Then go to the virtual drive and open it. This is usually just after My Computer.
Once mounted or extracted, Right click on the setup and click on “Run As Administrator” to start the game installation.
Wait for it to install the game on your pc.
Once the installation is complete, open the folder named “Codex Or crack etc” and copy all the files from there and paste into the directory where you have installed the game. For example if you have installed game in “My Computer > Local Disk C > Program files > “Pro Evolution Soccer 2011” then paste those files in this directory.
Click on replace if it asks for it.
Right click on the game icon .exe and then click on “Run as Administrator” to start the game.
Enjoy.
