Wow...
This is what Capcom is willing to invest into fucking their customers.

Just in case you were wondering why the game still doesn't work for some MH fans.

@LukeAlmighty There are even worse solutions. VMProtect is one of them. It essentially creates a custom instruction set and an accompanying VM for it for emulation and runs that on top of x86_64. Denuvo uses it for I think. That's the main reason why bad Denuvo implementations run like shit on powerful hardware.

I am not an expert, but some hacker said, that it's a "packer", and described pretty much that.

But I have no idea what a "packer" is. -_-

@LukeAlmighty Packers usually mean software that compresses the binary itself, effectively also obfuscating text included in it. A great example of a packer for binaries is UPX. The binary can be run without any decompression beforehand. Some other things can of course be added to it, creating an anti-piracy solution.

@LukeAlmighty I just added it as a source, so it doesn't seem like I'm pulling information from thin air.
