Unprotect for 'The Games (Winter 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
GAMES.EXE TO GAMES
Ex. C>rename games.exe games
Next Load program into debug...
Ex. C>debug games
Then Follow the sample debug session:
-s 0000 ffff 0b c0 74 01 : Search for the protection pattern
XXXX:YYYY : The search will return one address.
If more than one is returned
this unprotect may not work.
ZZZZ=YYYY-0005 : Sub 5 from the address found
(These numbers are in hex. If you are
unfamiliar with the adding of hex
numbers don't attempt this patch)
-e ZZZZ eb 03 90 90 90 31 c0 : Edit the contents of the computed
address
Now write the new games game back to the disk:
-w <Enter>
Writing XXXX bytes
Then Quit Debug:
-q <Enter>
Now it is time to rename games back to games.exe
C>ren games games.exe
Now try to run the new (Hopefully) unprotected version of The Games
C>games
