Yeeah...

Yesterday i hacked the atari disk image file (.ST) i created with SainT and get informations about "Game Position" file (only one 512 byte sector per file).

--- Tech Part --------------------------------------------------------------------

The first bytes of game position sector (header) are always ASCII text with (Bytes $00-$51):

"Tower Of Babel Copyright (C) Pete Cooke 1989.Atari ST Version 1.1 Created 12/12/89"

But there follows interessting bytes:

Bytes $64-$8B are the Player's name...

Bytes $8C-$8F are the Player's score ( $00 $01 $86 $A0 are score with 100000 points )

Bytes $94-$108 are the played towers ( number of towers played filled with $ff-bytes, the others filled with $00-bytes)

--- Tech Part End ----------------------------------------------------------------

So i've written an .NET C# (CSharp) tool to create one save disk image with game positions (1 to 117) for all towers.

I attach the ".ST" file here.
