Especially to @Retrospect: mate, your games are great and I enjoyed giving them a taste... (I think I reached zone 3 in ROD2 and just looked at zone 1 in ROD3... not enough to post scores!) Unfortunately since march I really have no time to have fun with games and with my TI in general! ?

I am all okay to redo the competition in parallel for June with Pinball v1.0, according this post it is almost the same. .

+Ksarul Posted July 2, 2022 Share Posted July 2, 2022 I actually have an original Saurussoft disk of this one in my collection. As released, the game has an interesting quirk. If the disk it was on was a copy, the game would start fine and run for a while, before locking up the program and giving an error message to the effect: not an original disk. At that point, to had to quit and restart. Cracked versions eventually jumped over the code that initiated this, but it was an interesting way to protect the program yet give the pirates a nice functional demo to hopefully allow the programmer to sell more of the program. I seriously doubt that more than 75 copies were ever sold, unfortunately. Originals were also identified by serial number. . . 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In my book, that kind of copy protection rules. Take Spyro, for instance: https://www.ign.com/wikis/spyro-year-of-the-dragon/Pirated_Copy_Effects Also, ignore that the wobble of PlayStation discs is significant, and just enjoy the show. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How would that work if someone used Copy-C or similar (entire disk as bitmap copy or sector copy?). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mine must have been a cracked version - I got it either off CompuServe TI forums or one of the local BBS's like TI-West or West-Dale. Late 80s or early 90s.

What I meant was then I guess the message will not come up “not an original disk” as it is an exact copy bit by bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Correct--the program considers the disk copy to be an original, as it has the same underlying disk architecture as the original disk did. Copy-C has always been my go-to program when making true-to-the-original copies for my own use. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
