This install applies to "Sly Spy: Secret Agent" © 1990 Ocean. Requirements: ------------- This install requires WHDLoad to be in the path. To install from a different drive than DF0: select installation mode Expert. The installed game requires 0.5 MB ChipMem (+1.3 MB OtherMem for preload). It can be quit by pressing Del (key can be changed with Tooltype "QuitKey="). Features: --------- - Full load from HD - Protection removed (Copylock) - Access faults fixed - Sample player fixed - Bplcon0 color bit fixes (x3) - Timing fixed - High-score load/save (saving disabled if any trainer option is used) - Keyboard routine rewritten - Trainer options added - ButtonWait support for title picture - NewIcon and RomIcon (created by JHZ) - Source code included - Quit option that works on 68000 machines (default key is 'Del') This update is now finally finished too. I started the work on it back in December 2011 and got stuck trying to fix the problem with the sample player. On fast machines samples weren't played properly and I couldn't find the reason. Fast forward almost 6 years later, I fixed a sample player problem in the Blues Brothers patch yesterday and checked the Sly Spy patch to see if I could fix the sample player the same way. Turned out the problem was a different one but I finally found the cause and fixed it after a couple of hours! Check the comments in the source code if you're curious why the sample player didn't work correctly on fast machines. The sample player code is actually quite good, interesting how small mistakes can break code completely. Once that was fixed I also fixed the crash that happened after the name was entered and music was enabled. A few access faults also needed to be fixed as well. I have completed the game several times and there were no problems so all bugs should hopefully be fixed. As usual I have also added a few trainer options which can be selected in WHDLoad's splash window. If in-game keys are enabled the following extra keys can be used: E: refresh energy A: refresh ammo T: toggle unlimited time N: skip level Please note that high-score saving is disabled if any trainer options are used. Enjoy the game from HD.
