CAPS Images with Copy Protection (codewheel, ect)

Avanze · 24 March 2005, 00:54

Is there a list of the games that require a password protection or codewheel, ect? For example Monkey Island.

None that I am aware of, though the general assumption is that most CAPS titles have some form of protection, whether disk-based, manual protection, or something else. As with all general assumptions, this one too is wrong for a lot of games. Even so, a number of games may have had copy protection in one release, and it may have been removed or changed in a later release. Any list that was accurate would have to give info for each CAPS release, and not just have one entry per game.

We might be able to provide that information (games with manual lookups/codewheels) one day, but it is quite a big list!

It's all in the interest of preservation.
