Monkey Island 2 is © 1992 LucasFilm Games


History:

  v1.1 (29.08.03)
  - Converted to WHDLoad v16
  - Tested on italian version

  v1.0 (04.11.02):
  - Codewheel protection removed at least (UK & french versions tested)
  - Removed KickDOS, now uses original dos.library
  - Install script reworked
  - Manual and solution included
  - Source code included (note that I include a modified version of kick13.s
    because the original one is unable to run the game, which relies on the
    main loaded file to be "monkey2" or "monkey2.(something)")

  v0.9 (xx.xx.01): first WHDLoad release
  - Runs from HD using WHDLoad/KickEmu/KickDOS
  - Access fault removed
  - Protection not removed.
  - Choice of 3 kinds of icons

  old DOS patch
  - The patch I did 2 or 3 years ago was a dirty DOS hack,
    cracking the game and fixing the display, but there were still display
    problems, and the pointer was still shifted (as it happens in the original
    DOS game on recent OS versions).

Requirements:

 The game requires a installed A500 Kickstart 1.3 image.
 The kickstart image must be located in the directory "Devs:Kickstarts" and
 must be named "kick34005.A500". The image can be extracted from a A500 with
 tools like 'GrabKick' or similar which can be found on aminet.
 If the image is of wrong version or altered in any way WHDLoad will quit with
 a appropriate requester.
 Additionally the file "kick34005.A500.RTB" must be installed in the same
 directory as the kickstart image. It can be found in the archive 
 "util/boot/skick344.lha" on aminet.

Thanks to Bert Jahn for writing kickemu.s kickstart interface system.
