You must have a registered version of WHDLoad to play this game!

This game will only work with an original disk image. I checked out the
Endless Piracy crack but it looks like the "cracker" has frozen the game 
with a cartridge and used TetraPack to decrunch the game back into
position. Everything including all zeropage vectors onwards has been saved 
which means it is basically impossible to support in WHDLoad! The only 
good thing about the cracked version was the trainer so thanks to Marc
for that!

This game was a pig to install due to the copy protection - I'm glad Rob
Northen changed to the much simpler version as these ones are a nightmare
to crack without having the original disk in your possession!

The kickstart image must be located in the directory "Devs:Kickstarts"
and must be named "kick34005.A500". The image can be extracted from an
A500 with tools like "GrabKick" or similar which can be found on Aminet.
If the image is the wrong version or altered in any way, WHDLoad will
quit with an appropriate error message. 

Additionally the file "kick34005.A500.RTB" must be installed in the same
directory as the kickstart image. It can be found in the archive 
"util/boot/skick343.lha" on Aminet.

Greetings to Chris and Carlo for the originals, Mad-Matt for testing, Mr
Larmer for his great copylock decoder, Wepl for WHDLoad and all Action
members!
