非官方更新檔

非官方更新檔（unofficial patch）是由用戶社區而非原始開發者為一款軟件創作的非商業（英語：Non-commercial）修補程式。與普通的官方更新檔一樣，非官方更新檔一般也是為修復軟件缺陷或劣勢製作，而通常不會改變軟件的預期用法，這不同於第三方的軟件適配（例如遊戲模組或破解更新檔）。

非官方更新檔是一種通常經過萬維網傳播的用戶生成內容，可以被視作Web 2.0與重組文化（英語：remix culture）的一部分。

動機[編輯]

建立非官方更新檔的一個常見原因是缺少軟件原作者或提供者的技術支援。一些潛在的原因是：

  • 軟件產品已達預定的產品壽命並/或被其他產品取代（計劃報廢）[1]
  • 軟件最初是為另一個不同的環境設計，並且可以被改進/最佳化（移植）
  • 開發者已經停產（老軟件）[2]
  • 官方支援所要求的經濟成本過高（例如對小市場的本地化）
  • 對緊迫問題的快速解決方案（例如安全漏洞），如果官方響應過緩[3][4][5]
  • 官方開發人員無法解決此問題

類型[編輯]

在電腦遊戲領域中，非官方更新檔最為常見，它們有時也被稱為愛好者更新檔（Fan patches），尤其是如果為一人獨自完成。社區中多名作者共同完成則一般稱為社區更新檔（Community Patch）。這些更新檔着眼典型程式流程中的關鍵錯誤，進行崩潰和相容性方面的修復，例如適配新版作業系統、增加解像度等。

雖然非官方更新檔常見於PC平台，但在主機遊戲中也有它們的存在，例如仿真社區中的交流。[6]

翻譯

另一種非官方更新檔是愛好者翻譯（英語：Fan translation (video gaming)）（中國稱漢化更新檔）。愛好者將日本角色扮演遊戲（英語：Japanese role-playing game）翻譯為英語很是常見，因為這些遊戲通常不會為西方市場進行本地化。[7][8]

還有一種非官方更新檔是更新檔集，是將官方的零散更新檔匯總整合，以便安裝使用。

方法[編輯]

最常見的情況是沒有軟件的原始碼和原開發工具。因此，可能只得在執行期以逆向工程和除錯方法分析缺陷軟件的二進制檔案，找到問題所在後再設法進行修復。有時解決問題只需修改設定檔或登錄檔，而有時則需對二進制檔案或可執行檔案進行修改才能解決檔案。如果有軟件開發套件（例如Mod系統）可用，修復更新檔的製作可能會更為容易，否則就需要自己使用工具（例如NSIS、Innosetup）打包給用戶使用的修補程式。

如果可以獲得原始碼，則或許能更有效地解決缺陷。有時原始碼已獲公開發布，而有時是從原始碼泄露（英語：Source code leak）[9][10][11]或失誤[12]得來，例如《Thief（英語：Thief (series)）》系列遊戲引擎的泄露事件。[13][14]有時遊戲粉絲甚至對原始程式進行完全的反向工程（英語：Game engine recreation#Bottom up）。[15]

法律[編輯]

雖然直接涉及非官方更新檔的法庭案件不常見，但歷史上有過類似的案件[16]。

反響[編輯]

對非官方更新檔的存在各方褒貶不一，很多著作權持有人對此十分矛盾。[21][22]對於非官方更新檔和粉絲翻譯的專案，很少出現停止並終止的要求。[23][24]

有時著作權持有者還會主動支援軟件社區的更新檔和修復工作，少數情況下甚至可以以某個軟件許可證發佈原始碼來允許軟件社區繼續進行軟件支援工作。[25][26][27][28][29]

1980年代出現的自由及開放原始碼軟件運動有助解決非官方更新檔的根本問題，避免用戶因缺少原始碼而無法對僅二進制分發的軟件進行自行支援。自由及開放原始碼軟件對原始碼可用性的要求能防止對專有軟件的二進制檔案打更新檔時可能遇到的技術和法律問題。

[...] 2K’s failure to match MVP’s approval rating despite several years of running unopposed on the PC market, made MVP the go-to game for modders even as it lost its looks relative to 2K and The Show. The community’s support peaked from 2005 through the first PC edition of 2K in 2009, tailed off for a time, and then ramped up again once Take-Two abandoned the PC market in 2013 and canceled 2K entirely last year. A decade of EA development made MVP the best baseball game on the PC market in 2005, and a decade of amateur development has helped it keep that title in 2015.
