Hey guys, I just read someone activated his version and he doesn't need a dvd, so, we actually dont need a nodvd crack, right? He also posted a XML file of his activated version, maybe this helps:

as far as i know, that xml file will not help, although i did analyze the xml file from my own folder
and a part here is very interesting

while the xml file does not decide whether or not to activate your game, if you can get into activation.exe and change the function of that statusinvalid to same function of statussuccess, then perhaps you can activate the game with any key you want, then again..i heard the game has drm, so it might not be that easy
