What does that Ruspatch.exe actually do?

Hello to all NHL 2004-Adicts out there!


So, after not having played NHL 2004 for a veeery long time, I stumbled across this wonderful mod, thanks to all who contributed to it!

To sum up, it is in generally working fine right from the start, only this ruspatch.exe does annoy the gameplay before and after the matches:

Before: the green load bar appears and loads and loads and loads..... only Ctrl-Alt-Del helps (and even that is difficult, because NHL 2004 always pushes itself to the fore, so that the Task manager is hard to reach (only after several times of Alt-Tab).

Before and after: the ruspatch.exe demands administrator rights every time it Pops up. Tried some solutions provided on the Internet, sometimes they seem to work, sometimes not.

Then I renamed the .exe to a different Name, so it couldn't be found any longer by the calling script... seems to work - so the questions remains - what does the .exe actually do?

RusPatch is the endless replay plus shootout practice.

If you can't run RusPatch and make it functionable, the mod will not work. It's an essential part just like all other additional EXEs too.

Change your virus software if RusPatch gives you problems. Nobody has reported any issues with it in years. Only Project2.exe gives occasional issues.
