We can host the manual for ESA Protected games, no problem. So please share the Wasteland manual with us.

And as I haven't heard anything about an Ultima Underworld manual being submitted, please share that one with us as well k:

Thanks in advance!

Ok. In the process of digging my scanner out of storage, I managed to find my cache of manuals. I still have a few caches in other places but I found a few more you guys need.

Space Quest IV: I have the Space Piston Magazine that came with the game. It
is in full color, so should I scan it in color or simply go greyscale?
Ultima 6: I have the compendium that contains useful information for the game.
It has the spells list as well as needed reagents and things of that
nature.
Sim City 2000: I have the manual and it is a hefty 140 pages.
Eric the Unready: Forgot I even had the game, let alone the manual.

Finally got a day off so I will scan these in as well as the Wasteland and Ultima Underworld 2 manuals I have and hopefully will submit them by tommorrow.

Please try to use colors (and as for the Sim City 2000 manual, you can work with duckpatch. He has also offered to scan it. If the two of you share the scanning part, you'll only have to scan 70 pages each k: )

Ok. Wasteland and Ultima Underworld 2 have been uploaded.

Digging through my collection, I found my Battletech: Crescent Hawk's Revenge box, so I will get that manual up. Somewhere in my collection I also have a Realms manual as well so if I find it I will submit it.

Using full color scans for the manuals as appropriate (the Space Quest IV manuals weighs in at around 90 mb ). Whenever you get around to looking at them, let me know if I could do anything to improve my submissions.

I have the following manuals somewhere in my house:

Grand Theft Auto
Silpheed
Legend of Kyrandia
Legend of Kyrandia 2 - Hand of Fate
Legend of Kyrandia 3 - Malcolms Revenge
Monkey Island 1
Lemmings
Civilization 1 (ZOMG, have you seen how huge this manual is? Its like the biggest manual EVER.)

I will try and scan these in, but i don't know how to make them PDF files. Does this matter.

Nope, cause as long as we have the scans, someone will make the pdf

Didn't you think about the fact that some games were actually NEVER sold with a touchable manual? For example: BIO MENACE (pc, very old) only came with an executable containing the very basic information needed to play the game (and control the guy with the gun)

Some games just don't have paper/hardcover manuals...

EDIT: removed some foul smiley joke

Anyone get any tips for getting pics of manual pages with a digital camera? I find it awfully hard to keep the text readable and don't have a scanner
