Monkey Island 2

07 September 2003, 13:27

I grabbed the MI2 game the other night and discovered that when I load it up it asks for a voodoo recipe solution to get into the main game itself. Does anyone have a solution to this? If so, please let me know.

BTW - keep up the work on this site - it's nice to see such a decent amiga fan site

You need a cracked version of the game unless you actually have the codebook.

Get a cracked version from here -

Monkey Island

Sounds like manual protection (Well wheel protection in this instance :P) go find a cracked ver, or ask Akira for the Flash Wheel he did

07 September 2003, 13:43

Flash Wheel? Hmm...that's be nice to see..AKIRA - SHOW US YOUR WHEEL!!!

fisken uno · 07 September 2003, 14:41

Didn't killer make his own wheel from Pepsi crates...?

Amiga1992 · 07 September 2003, 19:37

Ooh I wonder where the fuck is my Flash wheel, it was a dev thing for CAPS that never got used.

If I find it I will post it somewhere.
Oh sorry, I remembered now, that it was a Monkey Island 1 flash wheel. If somebody gives me the scans for the MI2 wheel, I would gladly do it.

killergorilla · 07 September 2003, 19:53

The scans are in the zone.

Credit goes to CAPS and whoever scanned them, I got them from the MI2 caps release.

Dont think you should say that. in the zone it says "please do NOT upload CAPS release here"

killergorilla · 07 September 2003, 20:06

Yeah but it's not the caps ipf of the game :P

You silly fool

fisken uno · 07 September 2003, 20:18

No, actually I believe Dizzy has a point. Because some time ago I asked the CAPS guys for the scans for Space Quest 3 (I wanted it to make a showcase 3d box for a friend of mine), but they did NOT want to share 'em. Personally I think the box ought to be free from copyright issues since it's an advertisment for the game in itself, but they did not agree. So IOW let's say you scanned it yerself - for the sake of peace

killergorilla · 07 September 2003, 20:22

I do actually have the codewheel myself but I've never used it because of whdload. I also never used it because one of my disks has BIG corruptions on it and it just refuses to go any further without massive gfx glitches.

If the caps team want the file removed I'm sure the mods will do so, I appologise if it's not acceptable to post it, I never really thought much about as it wasn't a game itself. Sorry!

Amiga1992 · 07 September 2003, 20:51

I think the *whole* release shouldn't be uploaded. I'll let RCK decide.

And fisken, you got bounced, because the CAPS team is not supposed to give out anything. Theye were not being egoistic, just sticking to their guidelines. If SQ3 was released you surely can find the manual somewhere

fisken uno · 07 September 2003, 21:19

I did NOT blame the CAPS guys. They're doing a great job and I respect their rules. That's why I warned killer! And it wasn't the manual I wanted but the box scans including the sides, so that I could create a nice 3d VRML box of it... But never mind now.

Some cracked version require you to enter:

99
99

as the numbers.

If the game is hd-installed or you start it from the shell you should be able to bypass protection with the parameter '10001' eg "monkey2 10001"

This is a bootparam that is present in the scripts in (all?) versions of mi2, I think it works for the amiga version, its a long time since I tried it. For Fate Of Atlantis its 57663 and I'm pretty sure that one works on the amiga version.

Dizzy · 08 September 2003, 16:32

Wow thx for that information, didn't know that...

Amiga1992 · 08 September 2003, 18:42

That's one HELLUVA tip!!!!! Thanks!
