ayaya, w (Solved) Does anyone know if there are still clean DVD ISO rips of Grand Theft Auto IV around?
@ayaya@lemdro.id avatar

Check rutracker, I see one that has 1.0.7.0 in particular.

phamanhvu01,

Good idea with rutracker, I forgot about that site actually! It’s been ages since I’ve seen actual GTA IV and EFLC ISO installations for real, and download is reasonably fast too. Thanks again!

I have found that most torrents on rutracker are pretty well seeded in general, even the old and obscure ones. It is always the place I go when I can’t find something somewhere else.

That’s because Russians see the value in the collective good: everything for everyone. The majority of the globe just hits and runs on torrents because we got ours, fuck everyone else.

azerial, w Starfield has been cracked

Awe as a dev this kind of bums me out a little. I wonder that they used for DRM. Those sales go directly to the devs in way of raises and retention.

Granted this is not EA where i worked, but if you enjoy the game, i encourage you to buy it.

Also NOTE: I DO NOT SUPPORT DRM, just the pay checks of the devs as i was one for quite some time.

You realize this is a forum, actually a whole instance, that centers around piracy, right?

azerial,

Yeah! You also realize this is a group full of intelligent people right? It’s the whole reason why i chose this instance.

Intelligent enough not to pirate?

What do you mean you’re a saltbox contributor? How does that fit into context?

ZodiacSF1969,

I agree with you, but I think both of us about to be downvoted by these cheapskates lol

azerial,

I’ve thought about this. I think that happened was because of timelines, they released a super early build, fuckin producers.

It’s not the worst thing for an early access game to be cracked, honestly. If the game is has more eyes, that’s great. I am curious about what is out now however.

I am also curious about if the cracked version can be updated with content once the game goes live. Like i have no idea when that is or if it has already happened.

ToxicWaste,

Totally agree on the paycheck. However we need to stop acting like piracy is bad only. Buy the things you really enjoy and support the creator(s).

Back in the days a friend suggested i buy Skyrim and i was like: “Uuh not sure if i want to spend that kind of money on a 2yo game”. But since he was quite a fan, i pirated it. Soon after I bought the LE version and today it is still my most played game.

NGL: i also pirated many things of which i never bought the original version. But because of the bay i also bought some things i most likely wouldn’t have without.

Yup.

I was vaguely interested in Dark Souls for years, but every time I tried, I bounced right off it. I went through a cycle where every year or two, I would pirate one of the souls games, try it out, give up on it after an hour or so, and do it all over again the next time I was sufficiently compelled to give the series another shot. This happened until several years ago when I tried Dark Souls II, and for some reason it finally clicked. I played my pirated copy of Dark Souls II for about 10 hours, before a random crash corrupted my save file.

After that happened, I immediately bought the game on Steam and proceeded to play it for the next month and a half, until I eventually beat it. I've since purchased every souls game plus Elden Ring on Steam, and recently imported a copy of Bloodborne GOTY edition after spending $700 on an exploitable PS5, just so I could play it at 60FPS. None of these legitimate purchases would have ever happened if I hadn't been able to repeatedly pirate Dark Souls for about five years.

azerial,

I don’t think piracy is bad lol i do think mega corporate publishers have bad practices for sure. Like cool, the one i worked for is publicly traded. Awesome. Every action is greed motivated. I hate that.

Every time i loose hope in games i just play undertale and ignore the world. >.>

QualifiedKitten, w Some noob questions about seedboxes

I'm definitely not an expert, but I've been using Whatbox for many years without any issues. I'm based in the US and have it set up to autocharge the same card that I use for everything else. I do not use a VPN or anything else to access Whatbox.

I have received plenty of DMCA notices from Whatbox over the years, and they just require you to delete the offending content within 24 hours or your account will be locked until you do.

In fact, I vaguely recall them increasing my storage allowance a few years ago without raising my rate, so that was pretty cool.

Tadpole7085,

Cool to hear! Do you actually need to delete the content in order to comply, or simply stop seeding?

QualifiedKitten,

I've never actually tested that out. If it's content I want long term, I simply download it to my local storage before deleting from Whatbox.

What I've found works best for me when using public trackers for new content is to set up a max seeding ratio and whatever relevant *arrs. Doing it that way means that I've usually been able to download the content and stop seeding before the swarm is discovered/monitored by those sending the notices.

lessthanthree,

I was having trouble adding this on to Prowlarr. Anyone know what’s up with that?

CmdrShepard,

I think it’s been having issues the last few days. I’ve had it on there and Jackett previously for years without issue but I haven’t been able to connect for a few days now.

1337x.to works fine

CmdrShepard,

Yes the site works fine but Prowlarr was having trouble connecting to it, possibly a rate limiting issue, but I think it may have been resolved now as I didn’t notice the warning in radarr when adding movies last night.

Look into the rentry org Firehawk guide

Duck_Potaaato, w Where are the downloaded songs in your Spotify program files?

Spotify songs stored on your computer are encrypted/unreadable without the Spotify software.

There are tools that you can use to grab mp3’s by feeding it a Spotify playlist though.

Sharp312, w How to install Starfield

I tried running it with lutris but that didn’t work, I got an error saying I had a non compatible GPU (getting nms release day vibes lol)

In the end I added starfield.exe as a non steam game in steam, and forced proton under compatibility properties and it worked

Xirup, w How to install Starfield
@Xirup@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

In the case of Linux I strongly recommend that you never use installers or repacks, which usually have a high probability of failure with Wine in my experience.

I can’t confirm right now because I haven’t downloaded Starfield yet, but try to only use portable versions of games, like the ones Steamrip offers, where you just download a .zip and you’re all set, just run the .exe in Wine and play as if it were Windows.

Although Starfield is currently not available on Steamrip, you can find a portable version of Starfield on Rutracker.

svamp,

The only problem I have encountered using installers/repacks with Lutris is that they sometimes can’t create the installation folder. Creating it manually in the .wine folder is the only workaround I have found.

pazzeda, w How to install Starfield

Unpack the rar, mount the iso, run the executable.

some_guy, w [ENDED] Giving away TorrentLeech invites. Not selling or trading, they're just yours

Yes please.

das_monk, w In reference to iptv, what is meant by "1 line, 2 lines, etc"

Probably how many devices that can run the service at the same time… Within the same household presumably

dutchkimble,

Yup, this, but it can be anywhere in the world doesn’t need to be same household/ip or anything
