Unprotect for 'The Games (Summer Edition)'
BE SURE TO BACKUP YOUR 'THE GAMES' DISK BEFORE STARTING AND USE THE
BACK UP FOR THE UNPROTECT.
Modify only the backup copy!!!
First you should rename the file or files
THEGAMES.EXE TO THEGAMES
Ex. C>rename thegames.exe thegames
Next Load program into debug...
Ex. C>debug thegames
Then Follow the sample debug session:
-s 0000 ffff 51 c6 06 c9 : Search for the protection pattern
XXXX:YYYY : The search will return one address.
If more than one is returned
this unprotect may not work.
-e YYYY eb 65 : Edit the contents of the computed
address
Now write the new thegames game back to the disk:
-w <Enter>
Writing XXXX bytes
Then Quit Debug:
-q <Enter>
Now it is time to rename thegames back to thegames.exe
C>ren thegames thegames.exe
Now try to run the new (Hopefully) unprotected version of The Games
C>thegames
