Nice one-filer here which features some really ugly code! Can't say
I'm impressed with the code at all, it uses SMC almost everywhere even
though it would not have been necessary! Anyway, in case of any problems
with this patch try WHDLoad's "NoCache" option and blame the SMC for that!
The patch should work fine without NoCache though!
The random generator used the raster beam and produced bad results on
fast machines, I have completely recoded it. There also were lots of
Bplcon0 fixes to add, a small routine took care of that!
The demo has been crunched with ByteKiller, the decruncher has been
relocated an in case of any problems with decrunching WHDLoad will
quit with an error message.
The demo can be downloaded here:

Enjoy yet another classic.
