Does anyone have a working disk image of this game? I have 2 copies of this game and it locks up after the loading screen. Something to do with the ObjCode because if I use *RUN ObjCode it locks up. I'm using RedSquirrel. I can run repton 3 fine.

I'm desperate to get this to work! I have repton 1 and repton 2 PC versions that are way cool. Done by Superior Interactive. They are releasing Repton 3 soon. I also have all the repton versions for BBC that work too. Somebody please help me get this game!! unhappy

On the original disc, the ObjCode checks for a disc error at the end of the disc. If there is no error it goes into an endless loop.

To get around it, you will need to alter the code so that it skips this check.

I have written a BASIC program to do this so that Repton 4 will run on an emulator...incidentally it will then also run from a hard drive on a 'real' RiscOS machine.
