The Definitive Source Guide to Secret Keys, Easter Eggs and Hidden Messages 1st Edition : Apr. 15, 1992 Compiled by The Ramsacker The Byte Bastards BBS: (201) 697-7001 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Advanced Pirate's Signature A) Press [ESC] at the main menu for a hidden page B) Press [CTRL-C] at the hidden page to enter the monitor ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Airheart (Evil Sock's 16 sector crack; unverified) A) Use a sector editor to view a message embedded on Track $00, Sector $2 B) Boot a DOS 3.3, insert your Airheart disk in the drive and then enter the following: CALL -151 300: A9 00 8D EB B7 8D F0 B7 A9 21 8D EC B7 A9 0A 8D 310: ED B7 A9 04 8D F1 B7 A9 01 8D F4 B7 20 E3 03 20 320: D9 03 CE ED B7 EE F1 B7 AD F1 B7 C9 08 D0 ED 2C 330: 00 C0 10 FB 2C 10 C0 A9 04 8D F1 B7 AD ED B7 C9 340: 02 D0 D9 60 300G This enters the monitor and creates a short program which loads some sectors off of the Airheart disk which contains a message from The Evil Sock. I assume there is (or was) a way to load this message using a secret key but I was unable to figure it out. (I tried contacting The Evil Sock to find out just how to access these messages from a secret key. No go. I tore the game apart and looked for the possible secret keys myself. What I found instead were his routines to crash the game if his text crack pages were changed in any way. Neat, but no secret keys to be found.) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ankh A) When it asks you to choose which way, press '^' (use 'I', 'J', 'K', 'L' to move, [ESC] to exit).
