From:  Lloyd Borrett

       Melbourne, Australia.

       Sysop of the "PC Connection" IBBS on +61 3 528 3750.
       CCITT V.21 type modem required.  300 baud only.

I downloaded A.S.P.'s unprotection mechanisms for 'Signmaster' 5.04 and
'Chartmaster' 6.04 on Monday 26th November 1985.

Wouldn't you know it I had versions 5.05 and 6.05 respectively.

I've retrofitted a patch that seems to be okay.


CHARTMASTER 6.05
----------------

1.  Rename CM1.EXE CM1

2.  DEBUG CM1

3.  D CS:A51

    You should see 75 03 E9 09 00

    E CS:A51 90 90 EB CF 06

    W

    Q

4.  Rename SIGN SIGN.EXE


NOTE:
-----

1.  Still requires a diskette in the drive, but not the 'KEY' diskette.

2.  I wasn't able to determine what the second part of A.S.P.'s method
    did, and they seem to be working fine without it.

Unprotecting ChartMaster version 6.2  -  1/19/87  -  by Row Jimmy
                                         (with thanks to the Freebie Fixer)

Version 6.2 uses the same copy protection as 6.1, but in a different place ..
follow these instructions:

copy cm1b.exe to cm1b.xxx

debug cm1b.xxx

-s 000 ffff 75 68

you will see something like
XXXX:CCB7

type
-e ccb7 75.eb <cr>
-w
-q

rename cm1b.xxx to cm1b.exe and you're off and running!

              ** copy protection is a foolish game **
              **       don't play the game         **
