It does not unfortunately because the Hypervisor used is specific to Windows, and Wind doesn’t allow the kind of Ring 0 access required to make it work. Maybe in theory it could be done with custom software but it would be difficult and it would be better to just use a VM to run it or emulate a console version of the game.

I think the real promise when it comes to HV bypass is it paves the way for other people to work on new cracks. Which isn’t easy by any means but could be made easier by the use of AI tools meant for decompilation (something many purist crackers would turn their nose up at for some stupid reason).

It’s a pie, not a cake. It’s kind of a tradition to make pie for pi day.

People should make their own papers available for free, either on Bittorrent or just upload it publicly in many places (ideally both). It’s not like you get anything when people pay to access it from one of these journals.

Yeah the problem is that using authlib-injector to change the auth on the server is that it only works with that auth server. If you use ely.by it’ll only work with ely.by.

That coupled with the fact that Authlib-injector is prohibitively difficult to set up on servers compared to clients is why people running servers meant for non-premium accounts just use offline mode with a password mod.

Also littleskin.cn is another auth server but it seems like it’s only used for skins. Theoretically it could be used for servers but it’s definitely not it’s primary usecase.

It’s really hard to find servers which actually use alternate auth servers like ely.by or littleskin.cn like as actual auth servers and not just a skin server.

I think this is largely for two main reasons.

1. It’s way more complicated and less easy to set up authlib-injector on a server
2. There’s pressure and stigma in English speaking Minecraft communities not to.

If it were as easy to setup on servers as it is on the client, we might see servers that use it in non-English countries like Brazil, Russia, and China. As it is though it’s too complex and a password mod that remembers your client username is simpler to set up.

Offline mode servers are way less common in English speaking communities for the second reason. I really wish more people would build them and tell the neoliberals in the Minecraft community whining about piracy to shove it.

It’s only really capitalist AI bros who care about this and are crying about it. Most of us are cheering for it because it means more open source models, and OpenAI’s wet dream of being able to block people from using AI is dead or dying fast.

If they open source it then that’s a win. Closed source models don’t help anyone because when the company goes bust they need to be reinvented again. People like to talk about the advancements capitalist industry has made but if they never publish any of it because of “tRaDE sEcrETs” they might as well have never done it because the next person will have to reinvent it when they go bust or kill it for money.

It sure is, and this isn’t even a great comparison because the satellite view images in each one have differences in color and resolution.

Well probably the best client is Fjord Launcher Unlocked (linked in my other comment) since it supports alternate Auth servers which effectively bypass the problem altogether. Ultimately though if Microsoft revokes premium status on accounts to get people to verify, using a different auth server or disabling it and going with offline mode will be the only real way forward.

I’m in agreement, Minetest is more of a curiosity than an actual replacement to Minecraft and it isn’t good to suggest it as a replacement to Minecraft.

Turn offline mode on and install a password plugin on your server. The worst Microsoft can do is revoke premium status on accounts, and offline mode skips all MSA account checks on servers.

There are also bypasses for that so you don’t need to actually connect, and forks that remove the requirement. Though I would say that bare prism is not the best thing to use considering FjordLauncher has authlib-injector support which means being able to connect accounts other than Microsoft and offline accounts.

It just allows logging in to alternate auth services like ely.by or littleskin.cn

Yeah it’s weird that they feel entitled to do that. It’s also a bit sad that a large portion of the community essentially accepts it. Well I mean that isn’t exactly true. In other places alternate authlib services like BlessingSkin and LittleSkin are very popular (mainly just for getting skins, not as use for auth) but beyond that you don’t see any real push to break away from Microsoft.

Fjord Launcher Unlocked is probably the best there is. Has authlib-injector support out of the box, retains FTB modpack support, and is patched to remove MSA checks.

Also for players on your server you should recommend people use No Chat Restrictions in case they still wish to use Microsoft accounts for whatever reason. I feel like maybe that mod should be installable on the server so you can require players to use it, but currently it doesn’t do anything when installed on the server.

If they do hopefully someone will expose them again for this.

It’s not really rude, no one really knows what your top upload speed is or how much of it you have to be able to use. Many people out there torrenting have horrible upload and download speeds but the benefit of the torrent protocol is that a bunch of people seeding a file with horrible upload speed can still result in fast downloads for you.

The only ones who might take issue with it are private trackers who might require that people have fast uploads or upload a lot in a specific time frame.

Wasn’t me who asked. I have been very strongly in favor of it though, guilty as charged. I will not shy away from that.

Again. I know people wish to scapegoat me and blame me for this (up to and including harassment). Like I said this would’ve happened with or without me.

Seems more like you want people to be furious.

I’m just making the observation that a lot of feddit users went into the thread and were pissed off about it happening, plus the fact that I got harassed persistently throughout the course of the vote. Those aren’t things that happen when people aren’t pissed.

If that is the case it doesn’t make sense why Feddit had such a strong and hostile reaction to the existence and progress of the vote thread.
