...back again.

With fun things.

While in France, I was bored as hell. So one time, I was looking on my laptop\'s HDD and found Sonic Spinball. I disassembled it etc - and to my horror and amazement - it was either programmed in C, or it was very neatly programmed, to imitate the C-style functions. You know what I mean - using stack instead of registers. That frees a lot of register space :) After 15 minutes, I found some nice compression format, which I just HAD to crack =P So I did. And wrote a decompressor. Which was working for the first time, just after writing all the code!

Anyway, if you skip stupid, lenghty stories like that - here it is:

<a href=\"http://www.hacking-cult.org/download/SSCDec.rar\">drx\' Sonic Spinball Compression Decompressor 1.0</a> (also in the utilities section).

So yeah, another compression format cracked. I might program a compressor, if ther will be need for that. Also, I may release the pseudo-code and things like that I made when I was cracking it. The program loads the Sonic Spinball offsets when you load the SS ROM as the source. Duh.

Also, it narrows the number of decompressors I have to make to 3 - two S3D compression formats, and this:

On a side note, I\'m proud to host the revamped Bart Trzynadlowski\'s Home Page, a very valuable site with many Genesis and Saturn infos. You should be ashamed you don\'t know it already!

Btw - Gunner added the Sonic 1 Beta Hoax with leaping that was requested =)
