U N P R O T E C T
for
Chuck Yeager's
Advanced Flight Trainer
V1.2
If you are anything like I am then you scorn the use of copy
protection methods implemented by some commercial software compa-
nies. They are inconvenient for hard disk users because either
they force you to have a "key" diskette in drive A: or they clutter
up your hard disk with hidden subdirectories and files. They also
can slow the loading and operation of the program.
I do not condone software piracy at any level. I do feel,
however, that legitimate software owners have the right to make
executable backup copies and are entitle to "hassle free" oper-
ation. The laws pertaining to this topic vary from state to state.
I suggest you look into this BEFORE using the information contained
in this text file.
I TAKE NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE USE OR MISUSE OF THIS INFOR-
MATION. USE IT AT YOUR OWN RISK.
Now since that is out of the way, we can get down to business.
This patch was developed for the version 1.2 of "Chuck Yeager's
Advanced Flight Trainer" distributed by Electronic Arts.
FLOPPY BASED SYSTEMS
If you are using a floppy-based system, format a new 360K dis-
kette. Then, copy all of the files from the A:\AFT subdirectory of
your original distribution diskette to the root directory of the
newly formatted floppy.
You may now put your original diskette in a safe place because
you will no longer need it.
HARD DISK SYSTEMS
Log into the subdirectory containing the AFT files.

BOTH SYSTEMS
Now, be sure that a copy of DEBUG is in the current directory
or is in the PATH.
1. REN AFT.EXE AFT <ENTER>
2. DEBUG AFT
3. At the "-" prompt, type the following:
E 0DBB 90 90 90 <ENTER>
E 0E38 C3 90 90 90 <ENTER>
W <ENTER>
Q <ENTER>
You should now be back in DOS. Only one more step left.
4. REN AFT AFT.EXE <ENTER>
That's it! You now have an unprotected copy of AFT. If you
copied DEBUG into your current directory, it is no longer needed
here and may be deleted. Type AFT to run your unprotected program
without the need for the master (key) disk.
If you have any questions or comments concerning this patch,
there is nobody to talk to but yourself!
