Hi All,

I have all the original Lemming series that i picked up, i want to make a copy of them (for day to day use, Anyone know what copy program/parameters to use to get working copies of these ?

thanks

Maverick 5 has parameters for a 2 disk version of Lemmings - Might be worth a try - I never could backup 1 disk version without hardware
anyone know more about what type of protection is used?

it uses MFM + copylock RNC from memory.

Yes I think your right I remember being told before that Copylock was used - What about the one disk version "Lemmings (Europe) (Free with Commodore Promotion Pack) IPF" is this Copylock track 0 side 1?
I see theres also IPFs of the USA version now - I wonder if this is the same.

Thanks, i have the 2 disk version and i was able to get a working copy using maverick-v5.01-1992-kjpb-.adf which used a parameter on it

edit... what hardware, the cyclone ?

it patches the copylock, else it wouldn't work.

Thats great

yeah Cyclone or one of its clones usually backup anything.

<strike>The MFM tracks would still be there - so would still need to be extended ADF?</strike>

Just wanted to confirm all versions/IPFs of Lemmings use same protection?

Edit : - Used Maverick with 2 Disk IPF version - Patched CopyLock - Used PowerCopy to write MFM tracks back to Floppy Disks - Not a true original but close enough.
