Second build, report bugs to gnagna2000@hotmail.com
This unlocker is only for english Collector's Edition v1.2

This unlocker allows you to get any cars in career mode (in car lot) and
unlock everything (upgrade, vinyl, paint, etc.).

This unlocker allows you to load any valid savegame, i.e.: any savegame
(incorrect checksum and different CDKEY).

You can save it and the CDKEY will be replaced with your own CDKEY.
Same for the checksum.

You won't have to load this unlocker the next time.

IMPORTANT: DISABLE 'Load any save' after the loading file. Going into
'Free Roam' while it is active crash the game.
1. Activate it only when you want to load an edited savefile.
2. Save the file to get a valid checksum again.
3. Disable the 'Load any save'.


Features:
- Unlock normal stuff in game (series cars and upgrades)
- Unlock EVERYTHING in game, you can drive Audi R8, Pagani Zonda, etc.
- Load any valid savegame (see notes above)

More explanations in About (F1)

If the unlocker doesn't want to start, set compatibility to
Windows 2000/98/95.

This is not a True Checksum Fix because it doesn't Repair the Checksum.
It just allows all checksums, So still backup your savegame file before editing.

by saving from the game,
the checksum will be replaced
by a real checksum
computed by the game itself


Please post what you have edited that worked for you....

Second build: will not crash the game like the first build

He's not lying. I've got the trainer, and it works. All you have to do is load a savegame once using the Load Any Save option. When you save this savegame, the CD-key will be corrected, and you will be able to load it later on without the trainer.

what godspeed mean, is this is not a checksum fixer
this only allow you to load any edited savegame (checksum will be incorrect then)
by saving from the game, the checksum will be replaced by a real checksum computed by the game itself, allowing you to load it without this unlocker later

but what about a chcksum fixer? it would be easier to hex edit it than mess with the memory.

any news on that

nobody said you have to edit in memory
you can edit your file, adding cars, unlocking races, etc. and load it as if the checksum is valid
that's all
you don't have to edit the memory
of course, you can save the file from the game to get a real valid checksum after loading it

unlocker updated, now the game will not crash anymore

oh, and i won't do a checksum fixer, since it would take a huge amount of time reading the code and it will be a waste of time

Is this effect permanent, do the cars stay unlocked when you're not using this program ???

I did try this feature "- Unlock EVERYTHING in game, you can drive Audi R8, Pagani Zonda, etc." so that i could drive the Audi R8 in career mode, but the car wasn't unlocked/showing up in the car shop? All other cars seams to be there except the BMW and Audi R8.

I have sent a bug report to gnagna2000@hotmail.com

Nice work gnagna2000 :) And no worries, as long as the save loads fine there is no need for an offline checksumfixer - the game can do that just as fine ;)
Btw. I still need it to run in compatibility mode, was there any fix for this?

From what I think the unlocker does, you need to have it running (like a trainer) to 'unlock' the content.

@ceano: i just tried the unlock everything and i can see the audi r8
the bmw seems to be unlocked with unlock series cars/upgrade
anyway, if you want to buy a car, just activate both of them :)

@cparty: i don't know what happened, i tried with VC++2005/2003, i think i messed up the linker and path :/

@stat-x: yes, you have to activate it everytime you want them unlocked (until you unlock everything by yourself of course), since its affect only the display, allowing you to select it and add it to your car, not in memory/game/savefile

What does it exactly do? Can I play still online after using it?

It allows you to load a savegame regardless of the CD-key or checksum. Once loaded, any subsequent saves will fix the checksum and insert the CD-key of your installation into the savegame. Because the CD-key is now yours, you can play online with it. Know that your account may still get banned, especially if you have some special "non-unlockable" content in My Cars.

OK any one that had any luck to add Darius car to the career garage with the vinyl? I have tried to move the Audi R8 (with vinyl) from the custom cars (10) to my garage by changing (10) to (12) and (02), but still the game crashes when i try to look it up in my garage? Have also tried to use the (Load any valid savegame) in gnagna2000 tool with no luck :(

Ceano, the game crashes because a Career car requires a info slot, without which it will crash. If you want to, buy a stock Audi LeMans and just swap Tuning Slots. You should know how to to that by now ;). If not, look in the For those who know hex edit topic.

Well that i never did think of :) it was a rely easy way to get the vinyl, i did just change the tuning part to Darius and viola.

Yes that will work, but sharing slots has some side effects. You always modify both cars and if you delete one the other's customization slot will be gone forever. I'll try to go into detail about customization slots in the other thread in a moment.
