Hi there. I'm not sure if this is the right place to post this, but here goes:

I seem to have a bit of a problem with the NewPerformanceCalculation option (or not, but it's definitely performance-related). The picture should be self-explanatory.

Otherwise, a great job! TTD was great, TTDPatch gave it a new life!

This is a known problem. If the performance score ends up above 127, TTD incorrectly displays it as negative. I'll fix this when I have some time.

I thought so. So... it's a signed int where it should be unsigned?

Yes, exactly. TTD doesn't have a "print unsigned byte" character, only a "print signed byte" one, so I've used it, thinking no one will ever reach a performance of 128... The fix is easy, though: I'll just zero-extend it and print as unsigned word.

Cool... I should dig deeper, it's already getting interesting.

Are you a programmer garf?

Yes. Although I haven't touched anything but Java and PHP for ages. Gotta pull myself together!

Have you ever coded in assembler?

krtaylor stop it here you might scare him off

Someone observant enough to notice the signed/unsigned int problem, would I think be complimented by the inquiry. But you're right, I'll try not to strong-arm him into the Patchteam.

This is getting a bit OT, isn't it?

Anyway, yes. A looooong time ago I experimented a bit. Got as far as activating the mouse driver in DOS.
