NOTE: The Amiga version is missing the ending data (retail and budget release).
I have modified the game so that it can be completed. However, there is some
gfx corruption. The final screen and music are missing (based on the Atari ST
version).
Upon entering the final cave the gfx for the scale are corrupt. After placing
all gold on the scale you will be presented with a message screen stating you
have made it to the elephant graveyard. After this the screen will go black.
On the ST version you are presented with a final image of you standing in the
elephant graveyard while a tune is played. I was hoping I could incorporate
the the final picture from the ST version, but I don't have any knowledge of the
ST, so I have put this on hold for now.
Stingray pointed me to STeem debug version where I was able to extract what I'm
pretty sure is the data for both the the scale and the ending screen, but I'm
not quite sure how to convert it to be used on the Amiga version.
