Mavis Beacon C64 never cracked?
Hi guys,
I just noticed Mavis Beacon 64 (disk version) on ebay. For those who don't know, the Mavis Beacon program teaches you touch typing - pretty useful for coders and, well, anybody. I checked on CSDb to find a crack of it, and there was nothing! :O Could it really be that no one has cracked/imported/released this one (yet)?

Well for those who want to bitch there is a forum for it and this is not it!
Error is not part of the protection this is on the original which I have not 1 but 3 original copies that was sealed untill I opened them!
My drive is an excellerator plus 1541 clone! It failed to read disk 3 track 3 sector 4 and this was while I was typing!
Next I tried it in my SX64 with its built in drive once with Jiffydos off and then tried it with it on! Both attemps failed!
Now I have told what I found and it happens with my other 2 copy versions the copy I got from Jim Scaberry and my Original Crack I did in 1988 which all are NTSC only but in 1996 I did a special hack for PAL owners it worked but unless you didn't do what my Info file said it would not load. This was not acceptable to Gamebase since they wanted it to not need a special technique!
Disk 3 seems to be so far the only one that bugs and I have LR's save disk and I thought maybe some fast typists could test it and see if it bugs anywhere while they are using the one from gamebase as the save disk I have of LR's could be the culprit! I can't get that high with my authoritic hands!
Thanks for the help!

Admit it, it's a great story so far.
I wonder when his former girlfriend enters the story again :)

I tried "playing" it. Quite nice actually. Play-testing your crack will make you a typing _god_! |

The Manual is now at Bombjack.org he has just put it online for those who haven't got one! It is in .PDF format so you need a reader to read it.
Thanks for the help still working on it and not much else to say yet!.
