Is Kranium doing a Juri and hiding a book in with engine ?
No engine should be 24 mb in size

Beautiful-Thanks.

Hi no there's no book hidden in there. Its just the way Kranium has compiled it. Basically the actual engine is only 150Kb but the EXE file has been blown up to 25Mb during the compile. The rest of it is just empty so 99% of the EXE files contains a simple block of 0-bytes with no code or data.  It doesn't do any harm or affect the perfromance of the engine, but may use slightly more RAM as a result.  

No offence to you intended but we've seen that story / excuse banded about and its ...
 sorry but we do not believe that story .kranium is  far to experienced a programer and compiler to make a 150kb into a24 mb ,, hes made 10000s of compiles and suddenly releases a inflate by empty space one is like saying Houdart never plagerized code to pass of as his own and sell  renamed clone engines  or that  kranium never did that either

btw its also a rubbish engine that cant even compete against houdini

Hi,

No offence taken ! I don't disagree about it being a rubbish engine and I'm not really bothered as I won't be using it anyway, but just out of interest I checked what had been said about this on another well known forum. I have just opened up the EXE myself using a hex editor and analysed the code. There are 267 lines of proper code which is the engine and there are then about 265,320 lines that each contain a row of 16 zero's so are completely empty. So basically the EXE contains just over 4 million bytes of nothing-ness that definitely are empty spaces. No idea why or how this would happen but just letting you know what I found.

so delete the zeros and reseal .....................it gets hammered by houdini 4 ergo its pretty lame

PLEASE NOTE
This is a free engine so the fool that reported the forum for "hacking" it is a retard
