v3 interpreters are less desirable because you have to modify the executable file with your game's id.That's a very small problem given that we now have Sierra's original tool (setstr.exe) for doing that. It only has to be done once.
James Leiterman use to work as a developer in Sierra's Barn before it was shut down and he had the advantage that we had Sierra's source for the client. Not sure that the WON was ever leaked, so anyone that wanted to do so would probably have to RE it from scratch.Hmm, was he the guy that I helped with a bug? He was writing (or exchanging maybe) bogus configuration data which caused a delayed crash - only he didn't realize it was delayed, so he kept looking at the wrong section of code.
Seriously, Larry's Casino is awesome and I wish 80% of it wasn't completely inaccessible since WON network went offline.If only someone reimplemented the server-side code...
refers to a view, that will only cause the view to not appear. What you need to do is find the setScript: call that activates your script (which you don't name) and put the test there.Code: [Select](if (not (TestFlag 20))

To be fair, does MemorySegment-ed stuff survive cold starts?No it doesn't.
The patch note says that the value is read from MEMORY.DRV on starting a new game. When restarting from anywhere after the intro sequence, the password screen is skipped -- you end up right in the PornProdCorp lobby, with the two points from getting and spilling the coffee already there. Since these things start at zero by default if not specified otherwise, restarting leaves the jackpot at that default zero. That's why the patch changes the initial value to 1000 in the heap section itself, not in any actual code. The fix in that patch doesn't bother calling LoadPassword.And it's annoying too, because LSL5 already uses the MemorySegment kernel call to retain some data across restarts. But not the poker stuff
Original Sierra source code. That subject has been off limits, but thanks to recent events I can relax that rule. If there's anything good about performance art, it's the unexpected. I consider this performance art, and I didn't expect to be presented with a Sierra cache on deep background. There's a good story there, but it's not mine to tell. The important thing, I told myself, is that it's found its way into enough hands that it won't get lost ? and won't stay underground forever.I wonder how much other people have...
