I was at the local video game store today and I saw a poster for a Larry game: Larry: Magna Cum Lade. There was no mistaking it, this is the same larry. So i decided i needed to play the originals before i could go on to a new one. Here's my problem: the only files that i get on download is a "leisure suit larry 1.rar" this is different from other games i have gotten from this site and i was wondering what i needed to do to make this game work?

That is very strange.

leisure suit larry 1.rar ???



It should be:
Larry 1 - In the Land of the Lounge Lizards VGA.zip

or

Larry 1 - In the Land of the Lounge Lizards.zip


Try to change the ending of the file to .zip

odd try winrar to extract it

i think it's at http://www.rarlab.com

Nice avatar, Data

The CTRL+ALT+X combo only helps for those age verification questions. In addition there is a copy protection sequence that asks for texts in the manual. These aren't skipped by the key combination.

You have any examples?

[jbergstrom]

First there comes a text box that says "And now, a question that won't tax your memory. This question refers to the documentation that came with your game."

Then a 4-option question comes up. Some examples:

In the small photo next to word "spread" in the "Palamino Ranch" brochure, a cowboy seems to be hugging a. a rodeo clown, b. another cowboy, c. a cowgirl, d. a cow

The address on the back of the "Who's Whom" letter is a. smeared, b. invisible, c. scrawled on by a child, d. also Al Lowe's home address

According to "Who's Whom", Larry prefers ladies' derrieres as a. firm, b. rounded, c. petite, d. yes

CTLR+ALT+X just changes the question.

Thanks for the heads up!

I'll get moving in cracking those

[Tom Henrik]

There the copy-protection is up.

There was only 1 question I didn't fully solve, so I listed the two options that remains. If anyone find out the answer please inform me so I can update the file

The question in question :P

Q: According to "Whose Whom," how well-endowed does Larry prefer his women?

A: Petite blossoms or Medium handfuls

Well, most adventure gamers arn't expecting much from that game. It won't be a point and click like the older larry games. Heh it's not even latty, but his cousin, Larray Loveboat or something like that.

But anyways, in regard to a previous post. There are some guys over at AGS remaking LSL 2 and 3. I'm not sure if the graphics have changed, but they have a point and click interface. I think no3 has been finished, but no2 isnt.

edit:
So Larry is finished in AGS. Check out this thread: http://www.agsforums.com/yabb/index.php?topic=12020.0

Larry 3 is not finished yet, but the thread is here: http://www.agsforums.com/yabb/index.php?topic=8861.0
