Hey.
I bought a copy of Good old Monkey Island 2 around 1992 and I treasure those 5 1/4 disks like gold, I've played it a lot of times and I never get tired. I installed it again last week to play it yet again (one of those melancholic Lucas arts games weeks) but couldnt find the code wheel for the lame-o copy protection. Looks like my brother lost it or threw it away http://www.escapemi.com/forums/frown.gif)

Can any of you help me?

Considering the new Monkey Island 2's don't even have that silly voodoo code wheel, I really doubt lucasarts would care much.

Your best bet is to send an e-mail in cases like this.

there's actually a way of getting round the code every time...
when you press ENTER to play the game, don't release the ENTER button. hold it down until the two pictures stop. the pictures will always be 'Bloated Ticks' and 'Snake Sweat' and the numbers are 27 and 48.
hope this helps...

Please, feel free to e-mail me at mav3r1k@netscape.net. I would greatly appreciate it http://www.escapemi.com/forums/smile.gif)

Btw, it's 6 disks, not 5 like I said, heh. And I have VGA version of Monkey Island 1 without the codewheel protection, but the MI2 copy I have is one of the first that came out so it has that darn thing.
I still remember playing EGA version of Mi1 and trying to match the pirate faces with the code wheel, ah the good old days.
