Hi,

There are several pages in the "hits and misses" manual for Larry 1-6 that are illegible, blurry, just badly digitalised. Is this intentional?

I tried to attach a sample png but when clicking "post my message" the css breaks and the message is never sent... after 10 minutes I cancelled.

Thanks

Just bought the LSL bundle here on sale. My manual has got the same unfortunate quality. It's looking like a bad scan to me.

I also have a box of the CD-bundle version of Larry 1-6 (with Laffer Utilities and similiar) from 1994 and just went to get it from my basement. It's got a similiar manual printed on paper, but in perfect quality inside. However it's not in english, except the age verfication/copy protection pages. But I don't think the original english manual would have any worse quality than a translated one.
Btw, I am missing the CD-ROMS of that bundle, that's why I bought the digital version. ;-)

Thanks, so I am not the only one.

Gog guys? Anyone here, or are you there only for announcements? :(

EDIT: got it. It's the manual that is available on archive.org.

You're welcome. Does this manual from archive.org got a better quality and could you post a link to it? Or would this be against any TOS or similiar? (Then nevermind)

Missed this. It's the same file, same quality.

We would just need some collector that has that edition that could scan all the pages (it isn't that difficult nowadays) :(

You alive?

Found a good scan of the manual in http://mocagh.org/loadpage.php?getgame=larrygreatesthits

That site is a treasure actually.

Yeah finally nice scan quality for this manual indeed, thanks for sharing. :D

Thanks, I got it from steam and it has the same horrible quality. The provided link is still alive and a golden find. Thanks again!
