Its no secret that the 8FC8 bios backups can be patched,some of our members can unlock them easily with a hex editor.This has led to a big increase in the number of requests being made,so i have released this easy to use (semi)automatic patching method that automates the manual hex edits.
The software used is windows only.
One script has been left out,but will possibly be added to a 2nd release at some point,with an open source hex editor that will run on Mac,linux and windows.

The above disclaimer and the instructions are in the attached README.txt file inside each of the attachments.

Do NOT post any bios requests in this thread please,lets keep it clean.If it works for you a thank you message would be nice,or if you can afford a site donation that would also be appreciated.

Hello SMDFlea, thank you very much for the script.
I had my difficulties at first but if you understand the logic behind it you will see that it works excellently.
He took the trouble to write a script that automates the process of unlocking 8FC8.
Thank you for that.
You should just make the effort and try it out.
If it doesn't work right away, just do it again…
You just have to learn how to use this great tool.
Read the README.txt thoroughly and it will work.
The Tiny Herxer also works under Ubuntu 20.04 under Wine, I tried it.
