[Windows App] Fix Bluestacks - Android emulator / application Crash on Windows 8

If you are now on Windows 8 or Windows 8.1 and was trying to install Bluestacks - Android Emulator for PC and have it crashed for some reason, here are some workaround to make the installation to work.

1. Update the graphic card driver
2. Or downgrade your graphic card driver - do this only if after upgrade your graphic card, the installer is still not working/running
3. Lastly, try to run Bluestacks installer with Administrator option by right clicking the application installer package, then select run as Administrator.

The third option finally worked on me and now I can play android games on my Win 8 PC.

SMASH BANDITS CHEATS / HACKS by Hutch Games Ltd

Hi,

Just want to share some cheats and/or hacks i find during my time playing Smash Bandits game by Hutch Games Ltd.

Version: 1.02.16

Escape from Jail without bribing/spending coins/hire a lawyer:
Requires Jailbreak: NO

When your wanted level reached max level, you will be caught in jail.

You have the following options to continue playing games:

1. Hire a lawyer. Which cost you a lot of coins

2. Bribe the cops. Which cost you 2 coins

3. Ask for help from Facebook friends

4. Wait for the jail time to be finished

All the option are sucks because:

Option 1: you will spend a lot of coins

Option 2: you will spend 2 coins every time get caught by having max wanted level

Option 3: you share your Facebook profile with the game maker

Option 4: you should wait for the time to be up and then start playing again

Using version 1.02.16 downloaded from Apple AppStore, you can simply do the following to continue playing without waiting or sharing Facebook profile and asking help from friends and even without spending coins: change the device time to somewhere in the future!

Yes it will work!

So let say, you were caught in jail and have 30 minutes of waiting time before you continue your play, so just simply set your device time and date 31 minutes in advance (n+1 minute where n is the waiting time) and then you are free to play again.

Dont forget after you are free from jail,set back the date to its original date and time then go back to game and start playing!

The detail to change the date and time of your iOS device is as follows (for those who doesnt know):

1. Once you caught in jail, press home button to go to home screen. Look for Settings app

2. Click Settings -> General -> Date & Time

3. If your device setup for Date & Time is set automatically, turn that off first

4. After turning it off, you should see 'Set Date & Time' option. Click on it.

5. Adjust the date and time in advance as much as you need. Remember the n+1 formula.

6. Go back to Settings screen, your date setting should be applied.

7. Go back to game, you should be free by now.

8. Before continue playing, set the date & time back to normal by redo the steps from step 1 to step 6. And you are good!

Redo the above steps everytime you get caught in game.

Cheers and have fun!
