Default I can give boxshots, CD pics and/or (if permitted) ISOs for the following games

Civ II

Civ II Fantastic Worlds (Scenario pack & construction set)

Alpha Centauri Planetary Pack

The Lucas Arts Archive Vol. III (includes Full Throttle, The Dig, Dark Forces, Monkey Island I, II and demo for III, Afterlife and a disc titled "Lucasarts Super Sampler 2" including demos and previews for for Dark Forces II, Yoda Stories, X-Wing vs. TIE Fighter, Outlaws and Indiana Jones and his Desktop Adventures)

Icewind Dale + Heart of Winter

Starcraft Battle Chest

The Ultimate RPG Archives (includes on disc 1 Stonekeep, on disk 2 The Bard's Tale I-III + Construction Set, Ultima Underworld I&II, Dragon Wars and Wasteland, Disk 3 and 4 containing Might & Magic: World of Xeen disc A&B and on disc 5 Wizardry Gold. Please note, as far as i know, the DOS installation program for disc 2 does not work, although it reports an successful install, it doesn't install anything, though it works on FreeDOS.)

I also got a few screensavers, all "Master Series" branded, all unwrapped, all discs include screensavers, wallpapers and puzzles.

Claude Monet (16 bit)
A Passion for Flowers (contains 32 bit version) (includes free bonus screensaver called Winter Memories as a seperate disc)
Vincent Van Gogh (contains same as above)

I have no clue if i should unwrap these, keep them as is, or sell them, some help would be nice.

I remember i requested a whole bunch of Microsoft Flight Simulator(1,2,3,4,5.1 and 95) games and most of them got accepted, so when possible, I'll try to do those if i can run them because back then I still had a 32 bit laptop running Vista, its now running Ubuntu and I got a new desktop running Win 7 64 bit

Thanks! All those are accepted, only 98 and 2000 are on hold:
http://www.abandonia.com/vbullet/sea...archid=1257841

Do you have those games already, or do we need to search for archives?

Civ2 is sold but on site, if you upload box/CD shots we'll add them. Alpha Centauri is sold on GOG. Etc...

Do you have FTP access to upload?

I do not have a single Microsoft Flight Sim game. I also don't know what FTP is. I'm going to turn on my printer and scan all the boxes. Any other games except for Civ and AC that isn't permitted (because like I said, I got complication CDs, mostly RPG archives disc B)?

In our attic we have archives of MS Flight Sim 3, 4 and 5.0, as well as Microsoft Space Simulator. When you want to review any of them I can provide you with it.

When you're ready to upload anything (some of the box/CD shots) let me know, and I'll tell you how to.

If the game is on site we would want box/cd shots. In that case and if we don't have a CD version of it, we can be interested in the ISOs. If a game's not on site but it's approved at the requests board, we can be interested in the ISOs as well as the shots.

If the ISOs are under 300 MB compressed we could host them directly. Otherwise you can request to put the link in the ISO Cellar if you provide 3rd party hosting.

Alright, I got a .zip thats 273MB containing the box and contents (no ISOs) for Civ II, Civ II Fantastic Worlds, Icewind Dale and its expansion Heart of Winter (excluding Civ II's Advances Chart with Terran and Unit Specifications and Icewind Dale's map, both are poster size). The rest of the boxes are too large for my scanner, so I'll do their contents later.

P.S. Oddly enough, compression did nothing, even under .rar

We prefer a separate zip for each item, because we may want to access them individually. I'm sending you the standard PM which explains this too.

Ok, now that im thinking on uploading some ISO, i went to do some research

Full Throttle - Not Sold
The Dig - Steam
Dark Forces - gog
Afterlife - not sold
Monkey Island 1+2 not special edition - GOG
Stonekeep - GOG
The Bard's Tale - GOG, making all of Disc B rejected
Might and Magic World of Xeen - GOG
Wizardry Gold - 1 left at Amazon
Icewind Dale - GOG

Looks like i might only be able to provide 2 isos.

Unfortunately games by LucasArts can never be approved. The ultimate resource to know if a game is approved is the requests board; you can use the forum search function to find a title. If a game is not in there (including the child boards) you can post a new thread to ask.

If you're curious about the rules that decide whether a game is accepted to be considered abandoned, the sticky has the explanation:
