This install applies to "Titan Trax #1" 1989 Titanics.
Requirements:
-------------
This install requires WHDLoad and RawDIC to be in the path.
These programs can be found in the WHDLoad package.
To install from a different drive than DF0: select installation mode Expert.
The installed demo requires 0.5 MB ChipMem (+0.8 MB OtherMem for preload)
It can be quit by pressing F10 (key can be changed with Tooltype "QuitKey=").
Features:
---------
- Full load from HD (real files, disk encryption removed)
- All OS stuff patched (file loading, memory allocation)
- Access faults fixed ($dff0096, $bfe0ff)
- Wrong raster waits fixed
- Blitter waits added (x2)
- NewIcon (created by me)
- Source code included as usual
- Quit option that works on 68000 machines (default key is 'F10')
And yet another classic patched! Actually, I got a request for this
one a long time ago, it was back in 2000 or 2001 when I still
made a lot of custom (i.e. no WHDLoad) fixes. A guy from far
away (I think it was Australia or New Zealand) contacted me
and told me that he loved this demo and would like to run it on
his A1200. I made a custom fix for the demo and sent him a few
previews but I don't think I ever sent him the final patch and
never released it either. So this WHDLoad patch is dedicated to
this very guy (unfortunately I forgot his name), should he ever
see this I'd be happy to hear from him again about 15 years later! :)
As for the demo, quite good and clean code for its time, there even
were proper memory allocations and a CPU independent DMA wait in
the replayer. The sample quality is quite nice as well for 1989!
The disk was "lamer protected" :), every block on disk was encrypted
and trackdisk device was patched to decrypt the loaded data on the fly.
This wasn't much of a problem, the RawDIC imager to create an
unprotected disk image was quickly done. I couldn't be bothered to
create a full AmigaDOS imager though so for now UnADF (included in
the install package) by Andrew Bell will extract the files from the
image during the install process.
I will update the RawDIC imager sometime in the future to handle
the file extraction too!
Enjoy this nice classic from HD and have fun listening to some
good old house tunes.
