Games would be fine too if they are Scene/Topsite cracks. You should be able to verify the files integrity with the hash, referenced to a Pre site like scnsrc.net

Most. Water, for example, takes up more volume in spaces when frozen

It will depend a lot on hardware and/or software but I’d bet users would see some artefacting, ghosting, and general noise when they play your x265 file

As another comment pointed out, an encode of an encode is banned on a lot of trackers… Or at least an encode of an already pretty lossy encode (x264) won’t be allowed

Does the filesize change much?

It’s a typo, supposed to say “private tracker”

You’re going from a source of an encoded x264 and reencoding (the already encoded file) as x265?? What are the results like?

Most people encode from a high quality source like a remux, rather than an encode

Little me, you haven’t got the time to hear it

On a very very rare occasion I’ve had to use it for scene cracks as other apps didn’t work. They use WinRAR to archive it so on those very rare occasions it’s the only thing that unpacks it

Hello, fellow kids

I installed trusted cracks from scene groups. Not everyone who can crack will be a scene group. To get into the scene you need to be well trusted. Scene groups would NOT damage their integrity to install something malicious through a crack

As another user said, check the files you have match the direct uploads from the scene with a site like predb.me

You can search online for more info on scene groups/warez/topsites

Physically clean it with like a cloth or clean it as in remove pics and apps and stuff?

Don’t download anything (unless there is a freeleach option) and cross seed, for infinity

10?! There’s users out there with infinite ratio on some trackers. Numbers in the thousands are not uncommon
