Unprotect for Mini Putt
BE SURE TO BACKUP YOUR PROGRAM DISK BEFORE STARTING AND USE THE
BACK UP FOR THE UNPROTECT.
Modify only the backup copy!!!
First you should rename the file or files
MP.EXE TO MP
Ex. C>rename mp.exe mp
Next Load program into debug...
Ex. C>debug mp
Then Follow the sample debug session:
-rcx : record length of program
CX XXXX
: : make note of value & push return
-rcs : change value of CS
CS YYYY
:ZZZZ : add 0809h to value shown and enter
: ZZZZ=YYYY+0809H & make note of
: previous value
: (These numbers are in hex. If you are
unfamiliar with the adding of hex
numbers don't attempt this patch)
-n patch : load patch file
-l
-n mp
-rcx : restore length of program
CX 007C
:YYYY : enter number you made note of
-rcs : restore CS value
CS ZZZZ
:XXXX : enter number you made mote of
-e 0306 e8 87 7e eb 05 : patch disk I/O
-e 9e99 e8 16 e3 eb 11
-e 9efa e8 b5 b2 ed 11
Now write the new mp game back to the disk:
-w <Enter>
Writing XXXX bytes
Then Quit Debug:
-q <Enter>
Now it is time to rename mp back to mp.exe
C>ren mp mp.exe
Now we need to make a disk file out of the Mini Putt disk.
Insert Mini Putt disk in drive A (drive must be A).
Make default drive a drive with at least 320k free then type
C>dsk2file
This program should create a file called mp.dat if not re-check
that you did everything correctly.
The only files now needed to run Mini Putt are
MP.EXE
MP.DAT
MP.SBD is not needed.
Now try to run the new (Hopefully) unprotected version of Mini Putt
C>mp
