Removing Intros

Some guy made a collection of single file .prg's without intros (for loading speed):

Perfect for RR-Net!

not as lame as recracking (i.e. removing an intro and adding another intro, taking all the creditz) but if those prg's are not original games that is still lame for me.

I guess he could credit the original crackers?

I'm curious why the files are either 64K or compressed, is there no way to make the .prg to size without compressing it for even faster load?

Removing intros is very unscene. For me they are the main reason to load up most games anyhows. :D

I gotta share this thread with some non-scene friend ;-!

They complain about crackers on CSDB not crediting the original game creators (I understand and agree with the reasons for not crediting such - this is CSDB not Lemon64). But now we could have the crackers complaining that someone’s uncracked their crack without credit ;-) .. the irony would make my Twitter friends explode.

Bonus points if you drag them into a related thread on lemon.

I hope those twitter friends all buy their C64 games.

Apparently he only used original releases and removed the original intros.
