 Finally, this patch has been finished. I started it more than 10 years
 ago. I made a RawDIC imager to save the game files and patched the code
 to load files. This worked but there was annoying flickering in the lower
 part of the screen which is why I didn't release the patch. I spent a lot of
 time trying to fix the flickering problem, but to no avail.
 A few days ago I decided to restart from scratch and dropped the idea to
 use files instead of disk image. This decision turned out to be the right one
 as once I had created all the necessary code to emulate the OS stuff, the
 game worked fine without any flickering. I then added support for game saves,
 this took quite a while as the game code to handle the save disk is broken!
 It doesn't handle the directory properly, which leads to unusable save
 games. This has been fixed, loading and saving games works properly now!

 The save disk image (disk.2) will be created automatically if it does not
 exist.

 The game code is quite good, but it has the same bug I found and fixed
 in Heroes of the Lance: the coder accessed the execbase in a completely wrong
 way [move.l 4.w,(a6)], the game only worked by coincidence!

 The latest version of the source for this patch can be found on
 my Github: https://github.com/MK1Roxxor/WHDLoad_Patches/blob/master/Games/Dragons_Of_Flame_WHD.s

 Enjoy the game from HD and have a nice festive season.
