╘HE ┬ONE ├ELLAR
╟REAT ╙UBS/┴PPLE ╫AREZ
(303)457-0388
╬EUROMANCER ├ODE ╫HEEL
╞IRST, A SHORT EXPLANATION OF THE EVOLUTION OF CODE WHEELS. ╘HE CODE
WHEEL IS A FORM OF PROTECTION AGAINST PIRACY OF A PARTICULAR GAME. ╘HEY FIRST
APPEARED (TO MY KNOWLEDGE) IN THE ┼LECTRONIC ┴RTS GAME ┴MNESIA IN THE FORM OF
A "STREET INDEX". ╘HE NEXT APPEARANCE WAS MUCH LATER, IN ╠EGACY OF THE
┴NCIENTS, ALSO ┼┴. ╘HE THIRD (AND MOST COMPLICATED ONE) WAS INCLUDED IN ┬ARDS
╘ALE ╔╔╔. ┴ND, AS YOU MAY HAVE GUESSED, THE LATEST USE IS IN ╬EUROMANCER. ╘HE
FIRST TWO ALSO INCLUDED DISK PROTECTION, BUT THE COMPANIES SEEM TO BE RELYING
ON JUST THE CODE WHEEL FOR THEIR PROTECTION AGAINST PIRACY, AS THE LAST TWO
HAVE HAD NO DISK PROTECTION WHATSOEVER. ╘HE PROTECTION COMES WHEN, AT CERTAIN
POINTS IN THE GAME, YOU WILL BE GIVEN A SET OF TWO, THREE OR FOUR (DEPENDING
ON THE COMPLEXITY OF THE WHEEL) WORDS OR LOCATIONS OR WHATEVER, AND, USING THE
CODE WHEEL, YOU MUST PROVIDE THE REQUIRED ANSWER, OR YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO
PROCEED WITH THAT FUNCTION. ╫ITHOUT THE WHEEL AND WITHOUT ALTERING THE
PROGRAMMING OF THE DISK, YOU ARE STUCK.
╫HAT IS A CODE WHEEL? ╔T IS TWO OR THREE CONCENTRIC PAPER CIRCLES,
EACH ONE SMALLER THAN THE ONE BENEATH IT, SO THAT ONLY THE OUTER RING OF THE
LARGER ONE(S) SHOWS. ╔T IS ON THE OUTER RING THAT ONE SET OF WORDS ARE
PRINTED. ╧N THE OUTSIDE EDGE OF THE SMALLEST CIRCLE CAN BE FOUND THE SECOND
SET OF WORDS. ╧NE OR SEVERAL SMALL WINDOWS ARE ALSO CUT OUT OF THE SMALLEST
CIRCLE (AND IN THE CASE OF THREE WHEELS, WINDOWS MAY ALSO BE CUT OUT OF THE
MIDDLE WHEEL AT RANDOM POINTS) SO THAT THE REQUESTED CODE NUMBERS OR WORDS MAY
BE SEEN THROUGH THEM. ╔F THERE IS MORE THAN ONE WINDOW, EACH WINDOW WILL HAVE
ITS OWN NAME PRINTED ABOVE OR BELOW IT. ╔N THE MOST SIMPLE APPLICATION, THE
USE WOULD BE SOMETHING LIKE THIS: THE PLAYER IS GIVEN THE CONDITIONS OF ┴ AND
┬. ╚E WOULD ROTATE THE CODE WHEEL UNTIL ┴ ON THE OUTER CIRCLE LINES UP WITH ┬
ON THE INNER CIRCLE AND OBSERVE THE CODE THROUGH THROUGH THE WINDOW. ╔N THE
CASE OF MULTIPLE WINDOWS, HE WOULD HAVE BEEN GIVEN ┴, ┬, AND ├, ROTATED AS
BEFORE TO LINE UP ┴ AND ┬ AND LOOK THROUGH WINDOW ├ FOR THE ANSWER. ╙UCH IS
THE CASE WITH ╬EUROMANCER.
╘HE CODE WHEEL IN ╬EUROMANCER IS USED TO OPERATE THE ╨┴╪ MACHINE
FOUND AT VARIOUS LOCATIONS THROUGHOUT THE GAME. ┘OU WILL BE GIVEN THREE
ACCESS CODES AND ASKED FOR A VERIFICATION CODE. ╘HERE ARE 16 POSSIBLE ┴'S,
┬'S AND ├'S. ╘HE CODES ARE BROKEN DOWN INTO TWO TABLES. ╘HE FIRST TABLES
GIVES ┴ (OUTER RING) AND ┬ (INNER RING), TO BE CROSS REFERENCED TO EACH OTHER
TO GET A POSITION NUMBER. ╘HIS POSITION NUMBER WILL BE CROSS REFERENCED WITH ├
(WINDOWS) TO GIVE THE 3 TO 6 DIGIT VERIFICATION CODE. ╘HE ACCESS CODES YOU
WILL BE GIVEN ARE LISTED BELOW WITH ╘╚╥┼┼ ╠┼╘╘┼╥╙ ╔╬ ╒╨╨┼╥ ├┴╙┼ (USUALLY THE
FIRST THREE, BUT NOT ALWAYS, SO ╔ HAVE TRIED TO DRAW YOUR ATTENTION TO THE
ONES THAT DO NOT HAVE THE FIRST THREE IN CAPS). ╘HESE WILL CORRESPOND TO THE
ABBREVIATIONS IN THE TABLES. ╟OOD LUCK!
