This scheme contains needed data in the sector header gap area on track 18 and 17. Multiple header integrity checks are then executed on tracks 19, 20 and 16 each track that is scanned contains normal CBM data essential to get the game running, with the exception of track 20. Once all the checks and balances have been completed, the main bulk of the game is then loaded. Anyone, feel free to do a more in depth analysis of this protection and post your findings here. |

whoops, that should read "each track that is scanned contains normal CBM data essential to get the game running, with the exception of track 19. The headers are checked but no data is loaded from there. |
