This install applies to "Terminator2: The Arcade Game" © 1993 Virgin. Requirements: ------------- This install requires WHDLoad and DIC be in the path. These programs can be found in the WHDLoad package. To install from a different drive than DF0: select installation mode Expert. The installed program requires 1.0 MB ChipMem (+1.8 MB for preload). It can be quit by pressing Del (key can be changed with Tooltype "QuitKey="). Features: --------- - Full load from HD - Protection removed (Copylock) - Lots of access faults fixed - Blitter waits added (x22, 68010+ only) - Interrupts fixed - Decrunchers (ProPack) relocated to fast memory - OS stuff patched (AllocMem) - ButtonWait support for title picture - Lots of trainer options (CUSTOM1, see below) - Starting stage can be selected with CUSTOM2 - High-score load/save (saving disabled if any trainer options are used) - Keyboard routines rewritten - NewIcon (created by me) - Source code included as usual - Quit option that works in 68000 machines (default key is 'Del') Another very old patch that needed to be updated. I have completely remade the patch and fixed a lot of bugs! The game code isn't that bad but the code for level 3 (Skynet) was extremely buggy and caused a lot of access faults as the base register for the variables was trashed. Fixing these problems took me quite a while as it wasn't too easy to do. A lot of blitter waits had to be added too, these are only installed on 68010+ machines. I have added quite a lot of trainer options, if in-game keys are selected, the following extra keys can be used (they work for both players): E: refill energy G: full gunpower M: add missile N: skip level If you use any trainer option or the in-game cheat the high-score saving will be disabled! The game needs 1 MB chip mem, two binaries are on the game disks, one for 1 MB chip, one for machines with 512k chip and 512 k fake fast at $c00000. I might create a relocated version of the game in a later version of this patch which will work with 512k chip and any fast memory location. Protection was a completely useless Copylock, whoever implemented the Copylock tried hard but failed because it was way too obvious what was done and how to calculate the entry point address. Enjoy the game from HD, it's not that bad actually but very hard. If you play without trainers that is.
