X-Out level loaderCan anyone confirm all the levels of this game (the original game tzx) will load? Does anyone want to find how the checksum works?
I've heard Maketzx 2.33 has a bug with Alcatraz and the checksum can only be calculated at runtime. -

The one that sticks in my mind is Alcatraz Harry where, once you lose all your lives, you see Harry's head being shot off by a firing squad. The best bit in an otherwise crap game.
