Sky legion: air combat challenge help?

Postby starlord » Sat Jul 27, 2013 4:19 pm

Hello to all.

out of curiosity is there anyway to bypass the required online registration on this game (the site and server are long gone) or is this game definately unplayable? Anyone might know a workaround program who could allow this? Could be useful for similar games like the sabrewings from wildtangent. Also it would be a shame for those gems to be lost.

might anyone have a thought on this?

I searched high and low with no luck. That's the problem with online activation when it's no longer supported, the game is unplayable. :x

I hate when that happens. That obviously should never happen.

i remember having tried to find if there was a way to preserve some old online games from wildtangent that were dependent on a similar system. Some guy claims to have done something to that effect but the guy has disappeared now and finding him is impossible.

i think our last resort here is to ask scene groups to know if they might have a way around...

The site above has this one upped in '19, but it seems zilch crk was done (dunno) - hoping it's eligible to get treated by BlueMaxima's Flashpoint crew (a nudge will do :lol: ) :(
UPDATE: Seems there was an attempt to fix this one already, but only to partial success: http://zenade.angelfire.com/SC/GAME/SCGamePC.html

This is awesome. I hope that somehow we’ll get a four level full offline version.

Actually this reminds me of the older wildtangent games. I wonder how they were even accessible, given how they relied on online activation. Yet I see on the side games like dark orbit and Blackhawk striker supposedly in full versions and the lost media wiki lists them as found.

I can’t explain it.
