Bump. We are trying.... we are now in a fase to alter some small assets (image only at this point) .. a (programmer I know who works on cars) found out you need to change things in the install file combine the 4/5 SDA flies as an image and then unpack them and replace things with the exact same name . When you do an install it will write things to the new image
The key also holds the hex to tell the HDD what type of game you have. If you install a CE machine and change the dongle from an LE it will load the LE assets from the game
Only thing that the key does is before the loading screen it does a handschake to check for the dongle then the hdd gets onlocked and the assets are loaded.
Maybe we need to hot swap the hdd when the dongle kicked in but my friend who works on this is busy with work now . So I hope some other people can dig in to this!
We are working on it . Any other hackers here that can do better?

I have a small video clip how the install now starts with altered pic also on the boot of the game will upload later

The dongle is not tied to the hdd or motherboard. It only does a dongle check on boot loading image . If you remove the dongle when the game is booted you can play as long as you want. You can use any dongle from any matching game . You can order a new dongle @jjp

Quoted from drgary:

Did anyone try hot swapping the hdd after the dongle check?

rest I can t say. Just do whatever you think should work

It does work to unlock some clusters but it won’t get far as indeed most is loaded upon start
