[comp.sys.atari.st] Ultima V offset map bug

marauder@nadia.stgt.sub.org (Stefan Hess) (06/30/90)

I had the same problem on my first try. On the second try (luckily  the shop
had two Ultima V), I found out that this problem is home-made. It occurs
when you insert a write-protected player disk and remove the write-protect
after you're told that you inserted the wrong disk. On the next write to
this disk, the program thrashes the disk and you get 'offset map' when you
try to leave Iolo's hut. If you were playing from a backup, no problem.

Stefan.
