Tony Hawk's Pro Strcpy

A bit of a shame about the exploit applying to THUG PRO. The mod is played to this day, since the more competitive side of the Tony Hawk franchise has been dead for almost twenty years (with the exception of the THPS1+2 remake, which was but a blip in the scene).

The mod itself is over 10 years old now, and I think the original developers are gone, explaining why no one was interested in fixing it when Ryan reported it. But this means that now the mod is unusable, no one is going to want to risk a full privilege exploit taking over their PC.

Hopefully this article reaches someone who's a bit more interested in patching the mod.

I wish I had the time, because it would be fun. Back when I DID have time, I actually got that thug1 source code almost playable on Windows. That source code was only for the console versions, and the code assumed if it was compiling for windows (and not Xbox windows..) it was only for tools, so a lot of pieces worked completely differently.
