No.
If you install the patch over the default then the only Junior you
have is Junior 6.

I copied moved my original Junior60.eng and jr_dll into a different
directory then installed the patch.

Then I can't put the original back since it would overwrite the patch.
So. I edited the eng and dll file of the patched eng and dll with
a hex editor. However unless replacing the 60 within the eng and dll
with 61 it would not work. I tried replacing the 60 with 6a yet it
will not play.

So. I have renamed the patch Junior61.eng and jr_61.dll then it works.
Then placed the original Junior60.eng and Jr_60.dll back into the
engines folder and therefore have the originl as 60 the patch as 61.

Therefore if I play a game with 61 it records as 61.

Hope all that makes some sense.

Thanks.
