Is it alright to post pdf copies of original game manuals if the game is not abandonware?
I have Central Intelligence by Ocean, 1994 and have checked it and found that it's still for sale on CDAccess so it's not abandonware but there are games here like "Day of the Tentacle" that are also not abandonware but a copy of the manual is listed, in the case of "Day of the Tentacle" the manual is a Replacmentdocs.com manual, it also has screenshots from the game so I assume it's alright to submit them as well?
I just wanted to check before I submitted the manual and docs.
Thanks.

Understood, I have a bit of a problem with Replacementdocs myself as I don't agree with them stamping their name over material that doesn't belong to them in fact when I have found docs that have their name on I remove it:hihihi:

wow, that is a lot. :drool:

- Space Quest (Collector's Edition) - Roger Wilco Unclogged – Manual. [REJECTED] We don't host collections

Its just the Manual and not the Game, or? Then we can host it.

- The Lost Vikings – English Manual, Screenshots, Games English, French. [ON SITE] [REJECTED]

We have it indeed already on Site, but can you, Xhumed, check if the Manual on AB and your is the same or in better quality?

Not really because:

Space Quest Collector's edition is a compilation of the first five games of the Space Quest series. The package contains Space Quest I (both EGA and VGA versions), Space Quest II, Space Quest III, Space Quest IV English CD-ROM version, and Space Quest V (English, French and German versions). As a bonus, a humorous movie clip about the history of Space Quest series was also included.

We have all those games on site separately, so we can't just upload the manual for all of them.

Not so sure about that. It _might_ be technically possible to upload the manual once and just links to the original file on entries to other parts of the series.

Hi Paco, Roger Wilco Unclogged is just the manual that came with the 15th Anniversary Sierra Adventure Collection, it has a bit of history on each game of the five games, some info on installation and some codes for various missions.

The Lost Vikings, I have checked my manual and the one on site and they are identical except mine does not have Replacementdocs stamped on it.:hihihi:

In this case: Upload it! We will replace it with the RD-Manual on Site.
