They also have the driver FairplayKD.sys but I doubt it's generated there. I'm doing it for purely educational purpose and not intend to hack on servers, as I'm just curious of the method but it's kept as a 'secret' and knowledge only available to MTA staff. Netc.dll is injected in both Multi theft auto.exe and gta_sa.exe but 90% it's generated in gta_sa.exe The serial is stored somewhere on the hard-drive, or just a binary with hardware data.ĭid you manage to reverse what is used to generate the serial/or where the serial is stored? Some people tell their serial changed after upgrading/reinstalling their windows. SID (generated uniquely on each new windows installation), there's a changer available but I'm afraid to use it and prefer to do it without modifying my system. Reinstalling GTA+MTA and hooking again in the hope it will change.Īdditional info: the serial is also stored in the registry but it doesn't mean anything as the serial used in hand shakes is in memory. Hooking internal API function GetSerial (netc.dll) worked, the serial looked changed but when joining the server original serial was used(probably there's one more ) Hooking GetAdaptersInfo for MAC spoof - didn't work

Hooking DeviceIoControl (it uses it as well, for retrieving hard drive serial, seems to be called on each connect with the server) didn't work

Hooking WMI(it uses it for retrieving bios serial etc., but hooking doesn't change serial) RAW Paste Data Since few days I'm trying to generate/spoof new MTA serial.
