@maboloshi The crack for SM2072 (MacOS M1 ARM64) is valid. I just updated my SM from 2067 to 2072 and it works just fine. I was not able to make it work for SM2071 though but I'll just use 2072. Thanks!

The fact that both SM2070 and SM2071 are not valid for macOS M1 ARM64.

Yes, 2072 is valid and stable 2071 is unfortunately not.

@Destitute-Streetdwelling-Guttersnipe

Sweet! Now SM 2069 has the same result from license check function as ST. It's a good time to merge the patterns for SM and ST. I hope they won't change to 281 again (like they did before).

It's strange. It came back to 281 again in SM 2072. I wonder if it's a mistake that has happened too many times.

Ok.. I have update my patch to the latest versions... SM 2072... refer to this link.

@maboloshi You can use xxd (also from Git for Windows) to simplify the patch script:

echo 0FF5E7: 90 90 90 90 90 | xxd -r - sublimetext
echo 0FF5E7: C3             | xxd -r - sublimetext

echo 0FF5E7 90 90 90 90 90 | xxd -r - sublimetext
echo 0FF5E7 C3             | xxd -r - sublimetext

@Destitute-Streetdwelling-Guttersnipe Thanks, This time change to the new command format.

@Destitute-Streetdwelling-Guttersnipe

@maboloshi You don't have to download md5sum for Windows, certutil can do that:
certutil -hashfile sublimetext md5 | find "md5_hash_string" || exit

@maboloshi

@maboloshi You don't have to download md5sum for Windows, certutil can do that: certutil -hashfile sublimetext md5 | find "md5_hash_string" || exit

certutil can't output MD5 in uppercase format. It may be easy to forget to convert to lowercase letters when maintaining.

plakhin commented May 27, 2022

What about SM2071 macOS (M1 ARM64), any chance it'll be there?

@Destitute-Streetdwelling-Guttersnipe

@maboloshi no problem, find can ignore case:
certutil -hashfile sublimetext md5 | find /i "md5_hash_string" || exit

And xxd is popular in Linux & Mac. Most people has it when they install vim. For Windows, you should ask them to download it from https://github.com/git-for-windows/git-sdk-64/blob/main/usr/bin/xxd.exe?raw=true

BTW, it's funny to say that Note: ARM platform is not supported and then provide the patches for Mac M1 ARM64 :D

ST & SM support both Linux ARM64 and Mac M1 ARM64. Here you provide half the choices on ARM64. Maybe you should say something like "I didn't test it. Use at your own risk."

Currently there is no solution, we recommend using the latest beta version.

@Destitute-Streetdwelling-Guttersnipe

Look at @n6333373 's comment

fwiw, you have to return 0 (instead of 281) in SM 2069.

@plakhin You have to modify patch for "Initial License Check". Just make it return 0 and you can use it for SM 2071. If you don't know anything about ARM64, you can use disasm.pro to do that.

Sweet! Now SM 2069 has the same result from license check function as ST. It's a good time to merge the patterns for SM and ST. I hope they won't change to 281 again (like they did before).

It's strange. It came back to 281 again in SM 2072. I wonder if it's a mistake that has happened too many times.

Now they reverted to 0 (instead of 281) in SM 2073. Let's see how long this ping pong game lasts.

@n6333373 yup, 281 is back for another round of applause.
@maboloshi it feels strange to have the patch before SM 2074 showing up in the official download page.
