Title: Lost Dutchmans Mine manual, any help please?
Post by: Raymond on July 10, 2004, 10:56:12 PM

I recently bought a second hand copy of lost dutchmans mine and found to my horror no manual and a security check in the game (the game I played in my youth must have been a pirate copy...ahem). Can anyone tell me where I can get a scan of the manual or a .txt file with the original page breaks?

Ive been to back2roots but I have no idea what to do with a .adf file, its an amiga file, but I cant put it onto a amiga disk from my PC, any help with this too would be appreciated!

I only found a manual that didn't have pagebreaks and wasn't original, perhaps someone else can help.
But you could use whdload to install it to harddrive and that way skip the protection.

Its a good idea, but ive got a standard A600 without a hard drive. This game is not anywhere! Ive looked at sellers websites and a half dozen retro gaming shops in my area and no luck whatsoever.

Does the Back2Roots directory need an emulator to run rather than a real amiga? Ive seen the game listed there, I just have no idea how to run it. Cheers for giving it a try though!
