REVIEW OF NEW SOFTWARE
════════════════════════ ══════════════════

(C) KVAZAR
───────────

Over the past few weeks, several
new programs have appeared in Gomel that are worth paying attention to.
First of all, we should mention the next issue of the Kemerovo
magazine "DEJA VU-7". This is who we should learn from about the frequency of exits. The content and design are, as always, at the proper
level. Of the specific materials, I will especially highlight only the detailed
description of the passage of the game "Mirror", because many users are stuck at its different stages.
By the way, regarding the game "Mirror". As it soon became clear, the version that reached us was hacked, and very illiterately.
>When the player was almost reaching the final, the program began to require him to enter the serial number of the disk - an original
way of protection! And this same serial number, during hacking, was lost by an unknown hacker, and it could not be found on the pirated copy of the game. I had tourgently look for a workaround. Preference was given to the already well-proven method of “scientific poking.” Through trial and error and a fair amount of luck, MOUN created a key floppy disk that allows you to enter the code and continue playing. For our part, we will try to find
a normal version of this game. If any of our readers would like to purchase a branded disc, we can recommend that they contact the authors directly in Kazan, whose coordinates we will gladly provide to everyone.

I wonder what their coordinates are? ;)

By the way, a version with this protection method was sent to St. Petersburg and
Rostov, as far as my memory serves me right... The protection was found
terribly easy to remove and was urgently replaced.

In Moscow, I also sold several disks with such protection, brought
from St. Petersburg.

With respect, Alex from FFC COMPUTERS.

This thing works only once.. It’s just that everyone is used to the fact that the serial
number is either not needed, or is needed for lotteries.. But once it was needed for
the game :))
Next time it may not work :(

Warm greetings, Slava!

Let’s just say - it doesn’t work even once. What is the benefit to me personally if
a person Having paid the money, he won’t complete the game? Hoping that next time he will come to me personally to buy??? Reading this newspaper, I clearly understood that he won’t!
They rushed to get the working version? No, they started hacking to the end!
There was a promise to the readers that they would try to find... they probably got lost where they sent us ;))) it’s good that it’s not in Vorkuta! ;)

Therefore, the next project will be released on non-standardly formatted discs, like
Mirror v1.02, in order to protect itself from simple copying on the Spectrum,
with physical marks (thanks, Slava), something else tricky, and, of course,
all sorts of checks in a quest spread out over two or three discs, it will be possible
to fit disproportionately more, than was in the "Mirror".

Yes, we are going to distribute only original copies, you can start
saving money ;) We will release the demo only when we feel that it is not
too early.
