Altered Beasty Boy by Sega
|
|
Cracked by R. Bubba Magillicutty and Fabulous Furlough
|
|
|
|
GRAPHICS: HGC/CGA/TDY/EGA/"VGA"
|
|
SOUND: IBM/TDY/Adlib
|
|
CONTROLS: Keyboard/Joystick
|
|
SPAM: Not tonight, you give me a head-ache.
|
|
|
|
NOTES:
|
|
Press F1 from the title screen for a key quick-reference. The adlib
|
|
sounds just like the arcade game, except the lame "roar" when you change.
|
|
|
|
CRACKING NOTES:
|
|
This one was interesting. A little different from the traditional
|
|
Sega protection, but not much. It has two methods - running from floppy uses
|
|
a traditional INT 13-based read, then runs part of the code it read in (or
|
|
just uses the info to tell it where to jump to.) If you install to a hard
|
|
drive, it modifies the root directory around the directory name where you
|
|
installed it. We forced it to think it was always on a hard drive. It also
|
|
checked to see if it was running from a directory right below the root dir.
|
|
It wouldn't let you run it in something below that, i.e. you couldn't install
|
|
it to \games\beasty. Now you can. You're welcome.
|
|
This was sort of a co-crack. Actually, we pretty much both did it
|
|
separately. Fabulous Furlough had it almost working but didn't know it when
|
|
he called me and gave it to me. He got it far enough to get a "FILE NOT
|
|
FOUND" error from LOAD. But it turned out that it always does that if you
|
|
don't let it get called by BEAST. I had more fun with it. I ran the ACCESS
|
|
thing which modifies your hard drive root dir. It refused to run under
|
|
Compaq DOS. Of course both computers here run Compaq DOS. So I booted up
|
|
with a floppy, cracked the ACCESS install program, and got it to run. That's
|
|
when I told FF that you can't just run LOAD. From there we both fixed it up
|
|
on our own, giving each other bad advice along the way to make cracking it
|
|
take longer.
