- Thanks to "Warlord" and "Grafic Equalizer of the Pubb BBS" for the
- software and of course good ole Barimor for getting it to me. Not sure if
- this game is completely cracked, I found one doc check and cracked that.
- The game is somewhat complicated so I wouldn't be surprised to see some
- other shit pop up, either way just let any -=FiRM=- support board know if
- there are problems, no one's perfect. I could only get the doc check by
- pressing "K" in a race, which I assume means "Kill", after the doc check
- your are "Towed to Pit". The doc check is cracked even if called from
- other places in the program and I saw no other references to this routine
- nor the bomb routine (exit to DOS with SOFTWARE PROTECTION error) so it
- should be O.K. Now we just need some damn dox! There's been a rash of
- games lately and the dox are slow catching up. If your into Formula
- racing then you'll like this, sorry no VGA this time...
-
- On my 4.77 8088 this thing was reeeaaaalllll slow, the keyboard
- response was VERY sluggish so be patient. Here's what I learnt:
-
- To see the DEMO (not so good) just let the title screen run without a
- key-press and it switches to DEMO.
-
- F10 - Menu (from anywhere BUT racing)
-
- There you can change setup or Exit to DOS. You must select the Exit to
- DOS function TWICE to make sure that's really what you want to do.
-
- Basically you use a joystick, mouse (hopefully!) or keyboard arrow keys to
- move the icon around the screen and the buttons (or RETURN) select what
- you are pointing at, nothing tricky about that.
-
- The race works like Test Drive, on a keyboard you gotta keep pressing UP
- to accelerate, if you let off then you will slow down. BTW, check out the
- graphics in your side mirrors, pretty cool...
-
- Hey, make sure to check the Second IBM game to be truly "Trained" called
- TARGHAN, the trainer (and fix for that middle of the game doc check) is
- out and doing great. Now turn into the direction of the Software Surgeons
- house and give me 40 bows!
-
- BTW, that file WARLORD.TK is just a text file to him breifly explaining
- how I cracked this game as a courtesy to him.
