yep, hardcode is in the exe,

it will be interesting to break though - the exe seems to be encrypted, and then wrapped,
so far all i can do is unwrap it, i can't decrypt it...
(maybe both are done at the same time?, no matter, the effect is the same...)

With the demo it was very nice to be able to read ascii strings inside the exe, it certainly made modding for the demo so much easier when we could "see" the strings, filenames and folders the exe was searching for...

afraid we may be stuck with the hardcode,
PERHAPS you might get some clues as to what you are looking for from the Demo exe?

BUT, by the same token, encryption and wrapping the exe does make life very very hard for those peeps who would want to cheat online or to pirate the game...
