I have a NTSC version of Exolon by Microprose/Hewson. I am not sure what the protection is, but SuperCard Pro copies it and generates a working .g64.. anyone know the history on this game? I have never seen it before and I got in a big lot of C64 software. |

Thanks Jim - that is likely old information from the previous decade. I will check it and update. Thanks! |

Not on this version. I don't know what the protection is, or where it is, but I can tell you that during the load it steps from track 18 to track 9, and then the game appears. It never moves the head beyond this range. |

Ah, you must have the NTSC version and mine is PAL (that GMA loader is mostly on PAL releases). Send it along if you don't mind. |

I do have the NTSC version - at least it loads on NTSC machines. I only made a .g64, not a .nib file. I will have to drag out my stuff to do that. I need to anyways because I need to double-check the .nib file support in the SuperCard Pro software. |
