• What would be the first C64 cracking group you'd think of?

    This is a VERY late response, I know, but "The Bandit" used to be a friend of mine. I came upon this thread trying to remember his last name. His first name is John, he's from Chicago, and he used to work for First National Bank of Chicago I believe.
    He drove "The Bandit" edition of the Trans Am, which is apparently being re-released.

    why messed up?

    I had a whole bunch by "The Bandit Boy", who was Mike Henry, the guy who made the Fast Hack'em programs.

    Has anyone the e-mail adress of this guy? Would like to do an interview with him.

    Honored to find members of authenthic C64 groups.

    I can say that the C64 Art/Code/Demo scene very much affected and defined my development as a Musician and an artist.

    Every time some of the Groups pushed the boudaries of C64 hardware and music synth art expression and scanline interrupt effect synestesia, it was... WOW!

    These guys do fvcking cool stuff with the hardware/software /art and they Understand. They.. Understand.

    that is my stand on this.

    Can't find the article you reply to.

    Anyway when I was in an electronic store around 1984 I found a Commodore 64 tape with the game "Cave of 64". It was very cheap and when I played it
    it was boring as hell. I wondered if I was able to crack it and port it to floppy disk. It was amazingly easy. IIRC I just copied the loaded game, using a cartridge monitor to a floppy disk and removed one JMP address which
    checked for data.

    I never cracked any other game after that.
