OH Mummy - Time to have more fun

Having Fun With Oh Mummy

Introduction

This article like many others I will be doing, is a recreation, tidy up, etc of articles originally

published in old User Group Magazines. As the quality of these old magazines is quite

poor, I decided to take it upon myself to recreate those articles and present them in an

improved format, with pictorial enhancements and where possible improved content.

This time I thought I would have some fun with Oh Mummy. This article was originally

Published in Einstein Monthly News as part of their Harry the Hacker series of articles.

Where to begin

Oh Mummy comes on an auto-boot disk so the first thing we need to do is put in an

Einstein Boot Disk and boot to the normal prompt.

Now swap the boot disk with your Oh Mummy one and type:

LOAD OH.COM and press ENTER ;note the number of Blocks which will be

used for saving the program

MOS and press ENTER

Now you can enter one of the following two pokes:

M05FE and press ENTER

20. and press ENTER (remember to type in the full stop after the number.)

This will give you 32 Lives

Or

M 029AD and press ENTER

00. and press ENTER (remember to type in the full stop after the number.)

This will give you infinite lives.

You only need to use one of these pokes, remember to type the full stop as shown, this

ends the modify command.

Next insert a blank disc, on which you want to save the modified OH MUMMY to and press

CTRL/BREAK, this will return you to DOS. Then type:

SAVE nn OHM. COM and press ENTER ;where nn is the number of blocks noted

for saving earlier.

You should now have your modified copy of OH MUMMY on disc. Load and enjoy.

Happy gaming.
