I've just made a clean installation of Bloodlines, then used the official v1.2 update, and have noted the modification dates and sizes of the 2 files that are included in the no-cd crack. here's the results:
Original files (from clean installation)
vampire.exe - 7th Oct 2004 05:12, 1,291,215 bytes
vampire.dll - 14th Oct 2004 19:06, 9,139,197 bytes
Modified files (from official v1.2 patch)
vampire.exe - 7th Oct 2004 05:12, 1,291,215 bytes
vampire.dll - 2nd Dec 2004 16:13, 9,094,142 bytes
As you can see, the vampire.exe file is not changed at all by the patch. therefore the one in the no-cd crack is fine and should not need changing.
However the vampire.dll file *is* changed, and so even if the no-cd crack still works with v1.2, we need a new version of the crack making from the patched .dll file so that the updates are included. (otherwise by applying the crack you are essentially removing some of the fixes that the v1.2 patch has done)
Sure this will be done soon. It's making the crack in the first place that's the hard work that needs waiting for. As it's been done once, cracking the patched .dll should be pretty easy.
