Can also mean that bin/cue wasn't used for a CDROM release. CDROM shall only use the bin/cue building, while DVDROM type releases uses the iso format. DVD9 releases are packed in 100mb files and DVD5 in 50mb files. CDROM in 15mb files. All only accepted in winrar extension type of files. ▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄ To get your group name in the charts as an accepted release group, then you have to release, minium three scene points rated releases, during the group's existence. Three 0.0 point releases does not count. Groups/persons without any group will stay/get their releases rated in the INDependent section, until they have three scene point rated releases. Groups that have asked us directy to stay in the INDependent section, will of course get with request furfilled. ▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄ A cracked game release : 8.0 points ----------------------------------- Consists of copy-protected game, with additional directory, with copy- protection cracked content. The copy-protection cracked content has to be included within the game iso and not as an addon file. If the game needs a key/serial to run/install, then it have to be included to be a valid release. Additional rules concerning DVD rips ------------------------------------ They're allowed and will be rated full points if it's your own work. DVD rips of the same game by two different groups, has to be 1 cd lesser, than the previously released DVD rip to be allowed, else it's a dupe. Additional rules concerning steam releases ------------------------------------------ These types of releases, do not always featuring a installer. Homemade installations are allowed and will be rated as a normal iso. A steam release after a retail clone or cracked iso, aren't allowed, unless the steam version is featuring additional game enhancements, such as new levels and so on. ▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄ A CD/DVD check protected game release : 7.0 points -------------------------------------------------- Consists of CD/DVD check protected game, with additional directory, with copy- protection cracked content. The CD/DVD protection cracked content has to be included within the game iso and not as an addon file. If the game needs a key/serial to run/install, then it have to be included to be a valid release. Additional rules concerning DVD check protected DVD rips -------------------------------------------------------- They're allowed and will be rated full points if it's your own work. DVD rips of the same game by two different groups, has to be 1 cd lesser, than the previously released DVD rip to be allowed, else it's a dupe. ▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄ A clone game release : 6.0 points --------------------------------- Consists of a copy-protected game, which can be burned with often special burning programs and methods to maintain it's protection, meaning it's playable without any type of cracked content. It can also mean that you require an additional tool to run it, a method that's not burnable, but where a protection-emulation program, emulates the protection and makes the game playable mounted in it's iso format or with addition mini emulation images files. If the game needs a key/serial to run/install, then it have to be included to be a valid release. ▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄ A unprotected game release : 5.5 points --------------------------------------- Consists of a unprotected game, in either .iso or cue/bin file format. All through it's a game release, it does not require much skill to do. If the game needs a key/serial to run/install, then it have to be included to be a valid release. Additional rules concerning DVD rips ------------------------------------ They're allowed and will be rated full points if it's your own work. DVD rips of the same game by two different groups, has to be 1 cd lesser, than the previously released DVD rip to be allowed, else it's a dupe. ▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄ A cracked game update : 4.0 points ---------------------------------- Consist of the main copy-protected update file, plus additional copy- protection cracked content. If the game update needs a key/serial to run/ install, then it have to be included to be a valid release. Additinal rule -------------- Cracked updates, where the retail commercial protected is replaced with an lower advantaged protected exe file are allowed, as long as it funktions exactly as the original retail commercial protected one. If a PROPER retailed commercial reversed exe is released, then the previously released one will not be invalid, but the PROPER retailed commercial reversed release will be considered a dupe as first working crack always wins. A PROPER retailed commercial reversed exe's is prefered and not looked badly upon. If a lower advantaged protected release of the same version number is released after the retailed commercial one, then the retail one wins. ▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄ A trainer for a game release : 2.0 points, plus additional 0.1 point for each trainer option above 1 option, the trainer has. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Consists of a programmed exe file, which have to be runned before or under gameplay, for giving you unlimited lives, energy, bullets and so on. Each of the trainer menu options has to have an option that can be turned on/off, either when you play the game or before you start it. 1 option in a trainer, can be Unlimited Money on/off, which isn't 2 options as some trainer makers seem to think, basicially it's just 1 option, just turned on or off. Simple as that. The trainer have a GUI interface for easy use and require good programming knowledge to do. Some menus can be quite artistic, with advanced programming, such as 3D objects, scrolls, logos and music, often a real pleasure to watch and hear. Point example: GAME.TITLE.PLUS.25.TRAINER Will give 2.0 points for the main trainer, plus additional 2.4 points for each option above 1 it has. Which means that GAME.TITLE.PLUS.25.TRAINER, gives 4.4 points. Additional rules concerning same amount of trainer options ---------------------------------------------------------- Same amount of trainer options are allowed, as long as the options isn't the exact same as the previously released trainer. ▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄ Bonus discs/ Interactive dvds : 2.0 points ------------------------------------------ Are allowed, but will not be rated with top points. Main reason for this, is because, these types of discs often don't ofter much playing value. Sometimes they can be just movies, showing how the game was made, demos, interactive little games, art, previews and so on, meaning very little value to the sterotype gamer. ▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄ Low potentional rated games (cheap ass titles) : 2.0 points ----------------------------------------------------------- Are allowed, but will not be rated with top points. Main reason for this, is because, these types of game releases are often low in size, published by unknown firms or nearly unknown firms. Not many sites wants these types of game released. We think it would be stupid to rate them with full points as they are often hard to find any webpages to validate their true release dates, meaning very little value to the sterotype gamer. ▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄ A online patch for a game release : 2.0 points ---------------------------------------------- Consists of game hacked material, modified to make the game playable online, either on official servers, but can also be playable through user setup servers. ▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄ A savegame generator for a game release : 2.0 points ---------------------------------------------------- Consistes a programmed exe file, which let you modify your savegame to any desired option, that the generator has available.

Most of these type of protection are easy to crack, but some can be a little tricky. Requires programming knowledge to do. ▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄ An unlocker for a game release : 1.5 points ------------------------------------------- Consists of an unlocker for a game release, that unlocks parts or full locked content of the game features. An unlocker can be a save game, a modified hacked file, which opens up for locked content of the game, such as levels, cars, weapons and so on. Making an unlocker often requiers more skills, than just looking through game content files to find cheat codes. Gamesaves are often these day, protected and generated with some sort of file packer or file checksum protection, which can requier programming knowledge to re- generate. ▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄ A cheat for a game release : 1.0 points --------------------------------------- Consists of a set of cheat codes, obtained from within the game files, either by dissambler knowledge or just by looking/seaching through the game files. ▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄ Other kinds of game related releases : 0.5 points ------------------------------------------------- Consists of game releated material, such as game covers, manuals, solutions and so on, will fall in under this category. ▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄</pre> </body> </html>
