In late 2019, a crack developed by CODEX for Need for Speed: Heat, which uses Denuvo DRM, was leaked online, likely through their network of testers. Normally, the final cracks published by CODEX made use of anti-debugging tools like VMProtect or Themida, to impede reverse engineering efforts. This unfinished crack was not similarly protected.
Octane Render is an unbiased rendering application with real-time capability developed by graphics software company OTOY Inc. . Octane render was the first commercially available unbiased path-tracer that fully utilized the GPU, [2] [3] [4] allowing users to modify scenes close to real time without the speed malus of CPU rendering.
Tweak UI started as a control panel applet available for download on Microsoft's website, released shortly after the release of Windows 95. It was originally written by Raymond Chen and later included in Microsoft's PowerToys collection, a set of tools developed by Microsoft's Shell Development Team.
