notes:
- disable JIT or it will not work on WinUAE
- the protection was kind of weird. without WinUAE and the SPS image I would have
even a tougher time finding why it did not work. There are a lot of shitty
checksums and the CIAB_SDR trick.
- to reuse your old hiscore file, rename "datastorm.high" to "Highs"
- only 1 version (rerelease) is supported, the other isn't. |
