hi: this is my first post, so Greetings people!!!!
Im spending my hollidays in Madrid, and one friend call me to play some CounterStrikes Games, and after being seriusly raped by other team (really great players ) i took a rest (2 hours, ouch my hand hurts ) and i was reading the news (mtg of course) when i discovered this program.
So, if noone is gonna crack it, i will do. Anyway im gonna a give some info about it (may be someone will try to break first)
/* Target: MagicWorkstation 0.93
Os: Win 9.x/Me/2000/Xp (2003?) <-- i should test it when arrived at home
Language: English/Russian
Released Date: 02.06.03
Application Type: Online Game/Trading card
Protection: ASProtect 1.2x [new Strain] by Alexey Solodovnikov
Crack Type: Keygen/Serial
Web: http://www.magicworkstation.com
//Overview:
MagicWorkStation is a new powerful program for Online playing with tons of new feaures such as:
- Works with cards from all editions;
- Multilingual interface;
- Powerful card creation system;
- Ability to create custom cardset and play with it via Internet;
ASprotect is a tool for packing/encrypt programs and make more difficult to crack avoiding direct Disassembler.
It hides the Oep (Offset Entry Point) and also Rebuid the Iat (Import Address Table), so u must fetch it.
Also add in shareware programs, a time-Limit Protection stores in HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\AProtect\Data and uses some random keys for avoid being deleted
Time-Limit Protection bug:
If after delete the register we use Registry Cleaner,we come back at the begining of evaluation time.
Anyway in in hollidays, so i wouldnt be able to crack it until i come back home (may be 0.94 will be released) cause i got all the programs in my Pc, so dont wrote emails asking for codes (i create the email account for register in this forums, so i didnt use it), i probably will released it on Efenet.

I have already checked Stripper on MWS, and it doesn't seem like it'll do the job. ASProtect isn't invincible, but since MWS is a new strain, it's harder to crack. Looks like it'll have to be the long way. Good luck, MWSCracker.

I support your efforts you'll be able to get more cheap-asses to use MWS
To MWSDevs: dont delete this... I did try to crack MWS, but gave up.. Public information will allow flaws to be detected faster, and fixed earlier... and as you said elsewhere, you still have 80% protection to implement... _________________ Have you ever noticed how some flavor text has no relevance whatsoever to the card it's on?

Correct, you got it!!
"hey is this guy (MwsCracker) telling us he's going to hack into the MWS
and make a key generator for this program??
And i must admit i didnt know that they re developing for feed their family, i got one russian friend, Dymitry, he lives now in Germany, and he had passed REALLY bad in Russia, he had tell me tons od histories and im feel stupid and Powerless (hope this word exists) for cant do anything about it.
So, sorry for the people that were especting for the released of the keygen/serial, but in not gonna try to crack Mws, and im gonna help the developers when they releas the final version. Im gonna send em all bugs, exploits, and suggestions for make Mws more safe.
I love Open source programs, its a pity this isnt a source code Proyect, would be so F$%& nice if all of us work together to make an Open Source Magic (pokemon, yugioh, lot5r, Lotr, etc) Proyect .
Indeed i had found some months ago this Open Source Program http://mindless.sourceforge.net/ but i havent got enought time for check it
So, someone should make a poll, may be we can made an alternate Program, totally free and Open Source, for Developing non-stop.
Anyway i must said sorry to developers for publicate info about the Mws Security issue
Cya
P.d. I probably change the account for avoid people asking about the way to crack it.

Apprentice looking like an old DOS program doesn't matter. It is very easy and intuitive to use. It doesn't have many options, but it has all that's needed to PLAY, which is the program's MAIN purpose.
Having a billion of buttons and menu options doesn't make the program better; it scares ppl off.
Most of the people play Magic as relaxation. They wanna download the program in a couple of minutes. Be able to see in a minute how to build a deck and then PLAY a game.
Apprentice does this a lot better. People don't want the best, people want the easy. If you have a nice foreign restaurant, with all kind of boards with big menus, lotsa options, proof of every meal being good for health, all in front of the restaurant. And you plant a Mac Donalds next to it.... I know which 'restaurant' will get the most customers....
All that Workstation needed to do, is copy Apprentice, add support for Wishes, fix a few bugs (cheating) and it would be a lot more popular already.
Instead, a year is wasted with adding some 'nifty' options that get some responses of being cool and then even more suggestions are made, all leading Workstation in the wrong direction....
This is not 100% my opinion, but it's closer to mine than most opinions here. Just felt this had to be said.
Greets,
Koen
I'm not sure if I get all your option Koen, so please forgive me if I missunderstood you at any point. But as lots of ppls says that the mais reason of MWS exists is play and enything that goes beyond this is loss of time... (and yes, I agree that it's the main reason)
Imagine that I was using a old car for several years (an old 1972 Volks) this car drives me to anywere it's easy to drive (just a well and 4 buttons in the panel) and its does what a car is meant to nothing more.
Nowdays someone says: You can use a delux 2003 model that drives you to the same places that you already go but the cabin seens like a F-15 cockpit.
The eletric glasses, build-in GPS, an absurd horse power, the board computer, adjustable seats, a .50 machinegun and others 100.000 othes adds...
nothing will change the way I drive every day to my home/work.
It's how I fell with MWS, It's a new car. it's drives me to where I wanna go (just play) just like the old Appr. But I fell better "driving" and 2003 MWS. _________________ Visit right now my resource site and get some cool stuf !!! http://sites.uol.com.br/joeramone

I will wait to see Appr 2.0 runing to say anything by now all I can say is that screenshot posted in the MTGNews IS fake. (the file have the Paintshop signature inside its code *lol*) _________________ Visit right now my resource site and get some cool stuf !!! http://sites.uol.com.br/joeramone

I dont belive in Santa Claus, but i belive in App 2.0, why? cause i was talking with Ryan, the developer of App, and u can do it too, just connect to efenet Irc, and look for "neoshroom", he is usually in apprentice channel.

Joe... here you are wrong... they could have pressed Print screen, then go into Photoshop and paste it... _________________ Have you ever noticed how some flavor text has no relevance whatsoever to the card it's on?
I may create program look like Appr2 screenshot in 2-3 hours. But this program will need many months for finish and implement current Apprentice possibilities.

*sigh*
As i had said, u can talk with Apprentice Programmer, and he can resolve all ur questions (he is a really nice person), also he can confirm the date.
Pd. Detonator: why dont u change Asprotect, personally i think is a shit
