I have a copy of Firebird Elite for the ZX spectrum. It loads fine but I am then greeted by a strange screen with a cross in the middle. I learn later that this is for use with the infamous lensloc, a small plastic lens that you viewed the screen through to reveal a pass code in the garbled text, different every loading and every attempt.
Of course, I have the box, novella, instruction manual, keyboard overlay, guarantee, but NO LENSLOC! Arg!
it is practically impossible to guess. Guess too many times and you have to load again.
Anyone have a lensloc, or perhaps know of a way to bypass this? I appreciate this is very specific but if naught comes of it, at least it's an interesting(ish) topic.
