What do you mean exactly?
If you mean whether it is possible to dump it: yes, in fact we have a dump the 1992-3 SE version, unfortunately the second disk is modified though. As whether an ipf will be available: surely yes, once an unmodified disk will be submitted. |

let me just clarify this: yes its possible to dump archimedes disks.
as IFW said, the acorn achimiedes version of 92-93 season edition has already been dumped, and the second disk was found to be modified. no archimedes IPF have been released yet, and when we start doing so this game wont be until we get another dump of it. |

because that's not the way they were sold at first........ Hence a good unmodified disk 2.

SPS will only release a working IPF of a game IF it hasn't been modified in any way. They want to preserve the games as they were intended from the day they were sold.
I think only 1 or 2 exceptions have been made (Crackdown for one as it wasn't mastered correctly in the first place), but I think their feelings are, if they keep making exceptions, then the SPS catalogue will no longer be considered the de facto resource as a games repository. |

Galahad is right, we want to keep IPFs that way.
As for Crackdown: the mastering error could be corrected luckily as it was a semi-trivial error. You can call that lucky... |

Sure they are, mastering/duplication errors are not too common (but did happen).
So is the archimedes version; the problem is that the disk content itself got modified by whoever was using the disk. |

most likely the highscores or custom team names were written to the disk by the user, this makes the disk no longer in 'original' condition.
now, you started this by asking if acorn sensible soccer was dumped or was possible, the answer is "YES" its possible and has already been dumped once. but the dump is bad because the disk was modified. before an 'IPF' is possible, it must be dumped again with another copy. i can not see how i can explain this better. |

i will use modified version because that is better than nothing and if you dumped later
unmodified version i will change it |

1) SPS does not release modified disks.
2) which emulator would you use it on? |
