Can you please check the bottom side for any visual "things" and make a photo if you find something? I wouldn't expect it as intrusive as the first picture in this post but maybe like the second one. Perhaps some of the readers here know how to use the tool and could test in Altirra if the ATX works (which I do not expect): The Black Patch Master.scp.atx(must NOT be write-protected) And then please test if my quick and dirty crack works: Black Patch!, The v1.1 (1987)(Computer Software Services)(US)(Master Disk)[cr CSS].atr (must be write-protected) I tested on the Official Frogger from the A8SP zip. I took the ATX and used copy mate to make an ATR. Booted the ATR to make sure some anomaly was not interfering to show a good disk. The disk failed to load, as expected. Booted up the first version you posted and it does not complete the patch. Booted the ATR, it does not boot. Booted the second version and the ATR patched frogger like normal. The Frogger ATR works. Original used: Frogger (The Official) v1.0 (1981)(SierraVision)(US)[!].atx Patched version: Frogger (The Official) v1.0 (1981)(SierraVision)(US)[!].atr 4 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_The Doctor__ Posted August 20 Share Posted August 20 I thought the Black Patch had a 1987 version and a 1989 version, the latter having updates and more titles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly. Soulbuster's version is 1.1 and has 1989 on the program disks label. There is also a v1.0 which then must be from 1987. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+SoulBuster Posted August 21 Author Share Posted August 21 During the recent recording of Analog disks (which were horribly bad), I updated the batch file that I use to include running the -p option through 110. I will post it here in case someone else can use it. scp.bat.zip 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Write protect your disk if you are going to test it. Dunno what happened there because the dump is OK. Side B contains the Rotberg Synthesizer demo and its reaction to failed copy protection is to format the disk. Therefore the protection must have failed in your emulator. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is not a C64 file but is actually Side B that is needed by the main program after typing in the Security Code to run the program. Should this be converted into a cas file? Thank you for dumping this. I could not find a dump of Side B anywhere before this. Edited October 5 by FULS 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
