Crack

To apply the crack, follow these steps:

1. Download DiskExplorer DiskExplorer.
2. Use DiskExplorer to extract the file CSBGAME from the disk image.
3. The original CSBGAME file is compressed with LZEXE. Use UNLZEXE to decompress the file.
4. Open the file in a hexadecimal editor.
5. Go to offset E48Ch and replace '33 FF 8B F7 56' by 'EB 59 8B F7 56'. This will remove the protection check when you save the game.
6. Go to offset 1492Eh and replace 'C7 46 F0 02 00' by 'EB 20 F0 02 00'. This will remove the protection check when you start a new game.
7. Use DiskExplorer to import the cracked file CSBGAME into the disk image (no need to compress the file).
