~Nibbles
Some editor cheats. - By Simon Burrows
"Nibbles?" I hear you say "Nibbles?". Well quite frankly I
agree. A crap name for a crap game. However, quite addictive
and incredibly annoying. If some of you out there are still not
sure what I'm on about, I'll enlighten you. Nibbles is a game
similar to the old RM Nimbus game called WORM. Anybody who has
gone out and bought MS-DOS 5.02 (and perhaps a few earlier
versions) will have the game, although it was scrapped when v6.0
was released. The game itself is programmed in Basic and
imaginatively enough, it's file is called NIBBLES.BAS and is
found in the C:\DOS directory!
Anyhow, enough of the introduction and onto the cheats. In order
that you can complete this game (or at least, complete all the
levels ONCE) here is a way of boosting your amount of lives. I
have also included something to boost your score as well but this
seems a bit of a waste of time since I don't think there's a
high-score table to pose with, or any bonuses for a high-score
during play. Oh well, if you want to impress your mates with a
high-score (that's if you're not embarrassed to show them such a
crap game) then I suppose it could be of use to you.
~Extra lives:
First of all, load up the program with QBASIC. BUT DON'T
ACTUALLY "RUN" IT YET!! Now, press F2 to load up the 'SUBS'
menu then move the highlight box over to the "PlayNibbles"
entry and hit [ENTER]. Finally, looking at the numbers in the
bottom right hand corner of the screen, guide yourself to :-
0009:022 for the # of lives player one has, and;
0012:022 for the # of lives player two has.
...When you reach these locations, edit the number 5 you find
there to the total number of lives you'd like when you begin to
play.
WARNING: I've found that a 2 digit number (ie, 10 or above) seems
to mess up the bar across the top of the game-board. I'm not sure
whether it matters, try it at your own risk!! Anyway, 9 lives
should be enough to see you through all the levels!!
~Increased score:
The first bit is the same as before - load up the program with
QBASIC but don't actually run it yet! Press F2 to get the
SUBS menu, and then select the "PlayNibbles" entry. This time
though, still using the numbers in the bottom right hand corner
of the screen, guide yourself to :-
0010:022 for player 1's starting score, and;
0013:022 for player 2's starting score.
...When you reach these locations swap the resident '0' for the
number you want your score to be. Remember though, the number
that you put in is 100 times less than that that will appear on
the game. So, if you want 1000 points, only put in 10, and if
you want 1,000,000 (though I doubt it this will work), only put
in 10,000.
