Benn Daglish) Hardware: PC (AMD K6 II 400MHz, 96MB, 10GB), A1200+Blizzard IV 50MHz+16MB Fast Mem+10GB Caviar+CD-ROM*4 Music: POP Movies: Total Recall, X-Files series Books: all which are good Hard Installers: Jurassic Park (many code checksums), Deep Core (tricks with disk sync), Alien Breed (a lot of decode loops) In rememberance: Mr Larmer was one of the first people who contributed to the WHDLoad project with installs, comments and enhancements. He was extremely knowledgeable about the Amiga and installed over 100 games! His superb copylock decoder is still used to decrypt games and he always had time to verify that a game had been cracked properly. The last 6 months of his life were surrounded in mystery with some low-lives making threats against him. Czeslaw died in a car crash on the 7th of September, 2001. The entire WHDLoad team were honoured to have known you and will continue to update your patches to keep your memory alive. RIP Czeslaw. |
