Here's the patch for Submission's "Scene Talk" issue 2.
Took a bit longer to do than the first one since there were quite
a few OS calls I had to remove/emulate. There was also some quite
useless code in the bootblock that amused me quite a bit: 2 bytes
of code were decrunched and then that code was executed. Now guess
what the decrunched bytes were? There's only one possible solution
if you think about it. For all non-coders: the decrunched 2 bytes were
an "rts" instruction which does nothing but return to the sub-routine
it was called from.
It used the same RLE decruncher as issue 1 so I could simply reuse
my optimised code. :)
If the title picture disappears too fast you can use the 'BUTTONWAIT'
tooltype, then you have to press either mouse button to skip it.
Enjoy Scene Talk #2 from HD now.
Merry Christmas,
