I am sorry to say that for me it's not possible to also make a course and demonstrate how to add longer repair times to starforce-protected executables.

The reason is as follows:

The non-protected executable contains large areas with code caves (code that does nothing, all bytes are set to zeroes: 00) where one can easily place the bugfix code for the repair times.

In the protected version I cannot find these code caves with sufficient size to place the bugfix code in it. It seems that the code caves have been removed intentionally in order to make code manipulations very hard - too hard for me.

In my store I can get unprotected SH3 for 4,99 Euros. That is nothing compared to the time I have to invest to fix the protected version.

Sorry.
