Databay/!Help

This website contains an archive of files for the Acorn Electron, BBC Micro, Acorn Archimedes, Commodore 16 and Commodore 64 computers, which Dominic Ford has rescued from his private collection of floppy disks and cassettes.

Some of these files were originally commercial releases in the 1980s and 1990s, but they are now widely available online. I assume that copyright over them is no longer being asserted. If you own the copyright and would like files to be removed, please contact me.

  To use these Hacker cheat modules, simply double-click on your chosen
module before running the game. Study the loading message carefully; a list
of keys will be displayed, along with the cheats that go with them. If you
miss the loading message, press F12 and type "*HELP Cheat" after loading the
module. Once you have loaded the cheat module, load your chosen game as
normal. While you are playing the game, hold down the right-hand Ctrl button
and then press the key relating to the cheat which you wish to activate.

  After you have finished playing the game, either reset the machine or quit
the game and kill the cheat module by pressing F12 from within the desktop
and typing "*RMKill CheatMod".

  To use !SRKeys, load its application as normal and enter your chosen keys
by clicking on the appropriate icon and pressing a key. The program will
cycle through all the key definitions - simply press each required key in
turn. Click on 'OK' to create the module in memory, or save the module by
using the option in the icon bar menu. Use the F5 key to select one-player
key definitions and F6 for two-player definitions during the game.

  Thanks to S. Edwards for sending in his EliteCheat module - if you have
any cheat modules, hints, tips or information, send them in to The Databay
at Acorn Computing, and you may well see your work in this directory.
