'v-max redumping'

I thought the problem with these titles was that they used that "secondary" v-max protection where there was some sync counting or other odd byte sequence that wouldn't duplicate properly that showed up later in the game.

For example, in Defender of the Crown, I was able to get a working track 20 without too much trouble, and the game would load fine, but when you went to go jousting, it read something on track 11 or 12 of side 2 and then froze.

All the cracks of the time would patch out this second check. I don't know of anything that ever duplicated it, even super-card+...

Anyone got details on what exactly it was the game was looking for and why it wouldn't copy?
