Not sure, but it doesn't matter what you enter, even clencheds 'made up' answers work to get into the original game it's when the game checks the word and finds it's not correct then the game breaks the car or somehing.

All I can think of is maybe the test card could be a printout of the Italian answers and slipped into the English package. This way they wouldn't have to change the disk to add a new set of codes. Anyway I think you're in fine shape with either the Captain's or Galahad's disk. Both of these already passed the failure point many times over and then some. |

Obtained a copy of 'Hits for Six Vol 7' recently and this includes 1000 Miglia with the Security Aptitude Test in the manual and asked for during the game, all words are from the Italian manual even if you select English

Hello guys,
sorry to resume a somewhat old (!) thread...I recently started looking for an uncracked copy of 1000 Miglia, discovering that it is not included under the SPS list and therefore there isn't an IPF version of it. All I found are cracked copies, which barely take care of the manual-lookup protection, but, as you all discussed long time ago, they didn't handle the software protections correctly. I understand that a version cracked by scoopex and made from an original uncracked one was kindly provided. I found this file in the Zone, and I am going to try it later this week. If it works fine, I could well be satisfied, however, if possible, I would still prefer to play an original uncracked version. You can find it naive, but I am from Italy, and I clearly remember how much we mocked those games released by our fellow developers of the time. You know, they often looked much less polished than the contemporary productions by British, American, and often also German and French counterparts. However, after all these years, reading books and other sources, and after becoming a programmer myself, I realized how difficult our local scene was at the time (early nineties – no internet, mostly poor or no familiarity with sources in English when available at all!) and started to develop a sound respect for the works of those people. While I can’t travel back in time and tell my younger self to go buy those games because they deserved respect, I still can (and I would like) to play them the way they were expected to be played: with all the protection systems still in place and the original documentation, even if on an emulator. Therefore, if somebody still has the originals available, and wishes to share them on the Zone, it will really help me in my quest for redemption. Thanks everybody in advance!! |
