Piotrowski Jr.) DO NOT TRY THE XENOCIDE DEPROTECT THAT WAS UPLOADED HERE!!!! When we first released Xenocide, we only released about 50 copies of version 2.0 because we knew that it would get to the pirates first. The crack and the cheat mods which this Troha jerk are spreading will permanently destroy "real" copies of Xenocide. Presently there are several hundred copies of v2.1 and 2.2 out there, but less than 50 of v2.0 which is what that cheat was made for. v2.1 and 2.2 are also not compatible with each other. There are going to be new versions released every few weeks in an effort to prevent any cracks or cheats to work well. -Brian Greenstone
