J.O.E. himself mentioned today that this slideshow crashed on his A1200 after
Danny asked if he had shown this demo to his colleagues at work which
made me remember that I always wanted to create a patch for it and hence
started ASM-Pro and had everything finished after about an hour of not
too hard work. Code is pretty good, except for a bit of SMC and some
BPLCON0 color bit fixes not much had to be fixed. I have relocated all
ByteKiller decrunchers and added an error check, if decrunching fails WHDLoad
will quit with an appropriate error message.
Enjoy the demo from HD, special greetings to J.O.E. and Danny (without Danny
asking I wouldn't have remembered that I wanted to create a patch this
demo).
