I've only seen cracked       copies.               Yes! 4am acquired an original disk last(?) week and cracked it himself.              > The deprotect I found in a COMPUTIST was pretty simple, but it didn't quite       match up with the generally-available binary. That binary has routines to save       high scores to disk, hard-wired to slot 6, but they're disabled. I think       there's also a copy-       protection check at $7ed6 (EORs $9c00-9cff) that got disabled to add "> ZERO       PAGE <" to the congratulatory text strings.              My version saves the high scores, and the $7ED6 is not copy-protection - it's       validating the high-score table hasn't been tampered. 4am got fooled in the       same way. :-)              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
