I had a conversation with a reverse engineering assembly hacker about the Stalker CoP parental check, and I got this working pctrlchk.dll in return! Place it in the game’s /bin folder.
Here’s his documentation on the hack.
At the beginning of the pctrlchk function (100012E0) change
100012E0 > 81EC 30080000 SUB ESP,830
into
100012E0 > B8 01000000 MOV EAX,1
100012E5 C3 RETNIf you’re curious, that’s basically something like this in C:
int pctrlchk(void)
{
return 1;
}
Problem solved. 😀
Seconding the Call of Pripyat incompatibility. Games Explorer installed perfectly here.
