THIS ONLY WORKS IF YOU BOUGHT THE GAME !!!
*** DO NOT TRY THIS ON YOUR ORIGINAL DISK. MAKE A BACKUP! ***
Using Norton Utilities search POPULOUS.EXE for this HEX byte pattern:
3B 46 0C 75 09 8B 46 0C A3 82 2A
and replace the 75 09 with EB 03, write the data and your done. Then at the
verification screen you can just hit enter instead.
NOTE: If you are familer with DeBug... Try this:
From Dos:
rename populous.exe populous.xxx <enter>
debug populous.xxx <enter>
-r <enter> (write down the cs register value after the register dump)
-s cs:0000 ffff 3b 46 0c 75 09 8b 46 0c a3 82 2a <enter>
debug should respond with cs:xxxx (xxxx is an address)
-u cs:xxxx <enter> (I hope you realize by now to substitute the cs )
(register value for the "cs" )
cs:xxxx CMP AX,[BP+0C] (Debug should respond with this)
cs:yyyy JNZ DE66
-e cs:yyyy <enter> (put the value of cs and yyyy from above in here)
75.eb <space> 09.03 <enter>
-w <enter> debug says "writing zzzzz bytes"
-q <enter>
Then from Dos ren populous.xxx populous.exe
