Hi Willem, Unfortunately, it is not that simple. Since Genesis is designed to be 100% modular that means someone could generate a free game *.exe file, name it to the name of one of my games, copy in the exe file and play it with no security restrictions. Oops, all my games are cracked just like that. In order to prevent that specific type of crack each level would have to be linked some how to the commercial game.exe file which would make them incompatible with the free game.exe file. You can probably see that this would not be easy, and could potentially add major conflicts by intentionally introducing incompatibilities in the engine to reject this or that file while excepting others.
