Games tried 'n' tested Document d05/05 AjC ============================================================================= This document details all games tested with Desktop Hacker by its author, and any unusual bits of games which can cause confusion when hacking. Most are not problems with Desktop Hacker as such, but you should be aware of them. If you find a game that won't hack or produces unexpected results, and it isn't documented here, please send a report to DoggySoft. * 2067BC. OK * Aggressor. OK * Aldebaran. OK * Arcade Soccer. OK * Asylum. OK * Axis. This game has stupid protection on to stop you from using games hackers. You can always use the cheat module. * Battle Chess. OK * Black Angel. OK * Blood Sport. OK * Blitz. OK * Blowpipe. OK * Bug Hunter. OK * Bug Hunter in Space. OK * Caverns. OK * Chuck Rock. OK * The Crystal Maze. OK * Cycloids. The original Software 42 release hacks OK. It had protection on, but a recent fix to Desktop Hacker has (accidentally) got round this. The Games- Ware re-release has not been tested, but has a new protection system on. It might work. * The Dungeon. OK * Demon's Lair. OK * Diggers. Reports suggest you should only interrupt whilst in the actual game-playing bit, else the desktop goes funny and unusable. * Dragon Ball. OK * Elite. OK * Fervour. OK Remember the game only starts when you run the levels directory at the start - so drag that, not the !Fervour application, to Desktop Hacker. * Firebolt. OK * Flashback. OK * FRED. See Cycloids. * Galactic Dan. OK * GODS. OK * Greivous Bodily 'Arm. OK * Gribbly's Day Out. OK VIDC poking produces odd-looking screens on returning * Guile. OK * Hamsters. OK * Haunted House. OK * Heimdall. OK * Lemmings 2. Hacks perfectly outside the main game screen. Otherwise hacks OK, but during interrupt, the keyboard is disabled, and the hard disc won't work. You can get round this by typing any numbers (into the search window, for example), at aonther screen, then interrupting and performing the search. Other strange things happen to the time whilst interrupting - buttons don't slab in, and Desktop Hacker's auto-scrolling scroll bars eat the pointer. Take care with this game. It does lots of horrid things. * Mad Professor Mariarti. OK * Magnetoids. The demo hacks fine; the full version does not. I have no idea why this is, and I'm looking into it. * Magic Pockets. OK * Moon Dash. OK * Nebulus. OK * Paradroid 2000. OK * Phaethon. OK * Populous. OK * Premier Manager. OK * Quark. Doesn't work. I'm not sure quite why, but it has always caused problems with other hacking tools too, and it won't work on the Risc PC... * RedShift. OK Hacks fine, but sets the mouse multipliers to 0 so that the mouse pointer will not move (in fact the ship graphic is the mouse pointer!) and you can't operate the desktop. To replace the mouse multipliers, press F12, *Basic, and enter "MOUSE STEP 3" and "QUIT". * Repton 2. Doesn't work. Apparently. * Sensible Soccer. OK See Zool. However, Renegade have obviously noticed that the ScreenBlanker can lose the colours, and have helpfully provided a key to redraw the colours, which you can use after Desktop Hacker. It's Space. * Stunt Racer 2000. Doesn't work - crashes when you run it. Don't know why, and I can't test it at the moment as it won't work on the Risc PC either. But I expect it's something to do with the disc protection. * Spheres of Chaos. OK * Sim City. OK * Small. OK This game's memory set-up sequence complains if it can't shrink the font cache to 0K, even if it doesn't need the memory. So when running it, you must make sure nobody is using outline fonts at all. Desktop Hacker must be configured to use the system font instead of outline fonts (the Choices window), and no other tasks should be loaded. If you can, poke the memory set-up utility so that it doesn't mess around with the memory, to avoid these problems. * Super Pool. OK * Speedball 2. OK * Styx. OK * Swiv. OK? According to Berty this DOES hack fine, unless you alter the RAM disc whilst hacking, when it crashes on returning. Reason unknown. I haven't tested this (I can't now), but I'd be surprised if Desktop Hacker could hack it at all, what with all its funny interrupts. * Terramex. OK * Tertis. Doesn't work, apparently. * The Time Machine. OK * Top Banana. OK * Tower of Babel. OK * Twin World. OK * Xenon 2. OK * Zool. OK Hacks fine, but on returning the screen will be all black, so you can't see what's happening (the same happens if the ScreenBlanker cuts in). You will either have to get killed or find a bonus that makes the screen flash to restore the colours. Or use the ZoolPatch raster bars program.
