Here's a snippet of disassembly of conquer.exe:

Code:
 mov	&#91;ebp+var_A0&#93;, eax
 push	offset aEnglish_2&#59; const char *
 mov	eax, &#91;ebp+var_A0&#93;
 push	eax	&#59; const	char *
 call	_strcmp
 add	esp, 8
 test	eax, eax
 jnz	short loc_455A3C&#59;
 mov	&#91;ebp+var_A4&#93;, 2
 mov	&#91;ebp+var_A8&#93;, offset aTq_conquer&#59; &#34;TQ_CONQUER&#34;
 push	2
 mov	ecx, &#91;ebp+var_A8&#93;
 push	ecx
 call	sub_466780&#59; &#34;the function that checks mutex!&#34;
 add	esp, 8
 mov	edx, &#91;ebp+var_F4&#93;
 mov	&#91;edx+3AC88h&#93;, eax
 mov	eax, &#91;ebp+var_F4&#93;
 cmp	dword ptr &#91;eax+3AC88h&#93;,	0
 jnz	short loc_455A3C
 push	1
 mov	ecx, &#91;ebp+var_F4&#93;
 call	sub_4632A2

loc_455A3C&#58; 	&#59; CODE XREF&#58; sub_4559A3+4Aj
  &#59; sub_4559A3+8Aj
 push	0
 lea	ecx, &#91;ebp+var_8C&#93;
 call	sub_4231A0
                ...
The sub_4632A2 exits CO - so one easy fix is to just nop that out. You can also change any of the jnz to an unconditional jump to loc_455a3c to bypass the checks.

Yes - but it was more of a reply to Appolyon or anyone else who wants to learn how to disable the checks for when the next patch comes out.

For those of you who just want to run 3+ clients, just download DeathDragoon's exe. :)
