Does anyone know where to download manuals for DOS games that aren't listed on the download page? Does anyone know where to get the Cool Spot game manual. You need this for access to the game due to copyright protection..

Thanks... tomato.gif
www.replacementdocs.com is a good place to find game manuals, all of the files are in .pdf format (Which is Adobe Acrobat Reader). Unfortunatly there is no manual for Cool Spot on there.

hey guys, hope i am not late, i've just downloaded the game from here, here is the way to play it on windows xp.. u've gotta open the file called "setsnd" or "setsend.exe" if you don't hide extentions.. run it and then press "1" then "Esc" like that you will cancel the sound,but better than nothing don't you think? open the "spot" file and tadaaaaaaah it works enjoy,

If there was, we would've linked to it. We're affiliated with them, you know

good game but Cool Spot 2 (spot goes to hollywood) is much better. It uses isometric graphics and looks like 3D.

Just thought I'd mention this in case anyone was confused: you don't need the manual, just type any letters and hit enter.

The game-file will be an executable file, so an .exe, .bat or .com-file.
I remember playing Coolspot in the old days on my DOS-machine and if I remember correctly the executable is coolspot.exe (it's eight characters plus extension so it could be right).

When you are in Windows you can use the view 'deatiled' and group the files by file type. It's easier to look up the correct file then.

Have fun! k:

Do we have the Cool Spot title theme? When Cool Spot rides the 7UP bottle. That was a kinda cool surfing tune.... De-de-de-dedede-dede.... :brain:
