This install applies to "Death Trap" © 1990 Anco.
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 game requires 0.5 MB ChipMem (+880k for Preload)
It can be quit by pressing F10 (key can be changed with Tooltype "QuitKey=").
Features:
---------
- Full load from HD
- protection removed (8xchecksums, 1xlongtrack, 1x "Cobra X-Rom" encryption,
1xADKCON check, 1xCIAB ddra check)
- invalid copperlist entry fixed (x1)
- keyboard routine fixed
- trainers added (CUSTOM2-5 tooltypes, see below)
- Possibility to skip the intro (can be enabled with "CUSTOM1" tooltype)
- RomIcon, NewIcon and OS3.5+ colour icon (all created by Frank)
- Quit option (default key is 'F10')
Available Trainers are:
CUSTOM2=1: unlimited lives
CUSTOM3=1: unlimited energy, can be toggled with 'E'
CUSTOM4=1: unlimited continues
CUSTOM5=x: choose starting level, x=0-5, 5: end), if you add 256 to the
level number the level skipper is enabled, press 'HELP' to
skip a level
So here's the Death Trap WHDLoad slave. Not really planned, one of
the "it just sort of happened" things [sorry Galahad! ;)]. Not very
hard to fix, I had the most fun coding the decrypter for the main
file, the rest was all business as usual. Another one of those games
that didn't work on 680x0 machines due to the protection. The game
code itself is very clean!
If you wonder about the somewhat slow loading time, the game only
loads one track at a time and decrunches it (all the data has
been crunched with Lord Blitter's very own ByteKiller).
Have fun with this game from HD now.
Love and peace, Sting, 07-Feb-2009
