Take note of what reads after the second "unless".

in scumm doesn't works because the program doesn't read the format file.
scumm reads the extension .1c (for example in the game "Flight of the Amazon Queen"), but in Maniac Mansion there is no any file with the extension .1c

i wan't to play Maniac Mansion Deluxe

It's at least odd, since MMDX is a fan remake. However, what happened back then was pretty hectic and the admin crew had been removing anything that might have had the slightest chance of being the reason of ESA strike.

I'll contact Kosta.

Kosta informed me that Lucas Arts demanded removal of this game because they consider it to be a serious case of IP infrigement.

Unfortunately, they are right, since every fan-game and fan-remake can be accused of that.
