 Decrunch effects were used in order to show that something is happening and the program isn't just stuck.
+Note, if coding custom decrunch effects into the Exomizer. Before you call Exomizer in command. The output filename should be the last file is the output file. For example:
+*exomizer sfx $jump_address loadname.prg -x "effect code" -o savename.prg*
+where jump_address = the address you run your program code after decrunching has finished.
 Exomizer has a custom de-crunch effect routine, when using SFX mode. Its default effect is a flashing character at the bottom right of the screen. There are possibilities of customizing exomizer to do really cool de-crunch effects based on the old packers/crunchers you may have used. For example, here is an example of the ** Speed Packer V1.1 ** decrunch sound:
-** exomizer sfx $4245 rayfish.prg -o rayfish.prg -s "lda #$00 sta $fb" -x "lda $fb eor #$01 sta $fb beq skip inc $d418 skip:" **
+** exomizer sfx $4245 rayfish.prg  -s "lda #$00 sta $fb" -x "lda $fb eor #$01 sta $fb beq skip inc $d418 skip:"  -o rayfish.prg **
-(replace with $d020 if you want thick multicolour bars instead of strange noises);
+(replace $d418 with $d020 if you want thick multicolour bars instead of strange noises);
 A post on Lemon 64 Forum has a list of example programmable decrunch effects which resemble some of the old crunchers. If you want to use them, here is a list of those:
