Welcome to Project 64!

The goal of Project 64 is to preserve Commodore 64 related documents
in electronic text format that might otherwise cease to exist with the
rapid advancement of computer technology and declining interest in 8-
bit computers on the part of the general population. If you would like
to help by converting C64 related hardcopy documents to electronic
texts please contact the manager of Project 64, Cris Berneburg, at
74171.2136@compuserve.com.

Extensive efforts were made to preserve the contents of the original
document.  However, certain portions, such as diagrams, program
listings, and indexes may have been either altered or sacrificed due
to the limitations of plain vanilla text.  Diagrams may have been
eliminated where ASCII-art was not feasible.  Program listings may be
missing display codes where substitutions were not possible.  Tables
of contents and indexes may have been changed from page number
references to section number references. Please accept our apologies
for these limitations, alterations, and possible omissions.

Document names are limited to the 8.3 file convention of DOS. The
first characters of the file name are an abbreviation of the original
document name. The version number of the etext follows next. After
that a letter may appear to indicate the particular source of the
document. Finally, the document is given a .TXT extension.

The author(s) of the original document and members of Project 64 make
no representations about the accuracy or suitability of this material
for any purpose.  This etext is provided "as-is".  Please refer to the
warantee of the original document, if any, that may included in this
etext.  No other warantees, express or implied, are made to you as to
the etext or any medium it may be on.  Neither the author(s) nor the
members of Project 64 will assume liability for damages either from
the direct or indirect use of this etext or from the distribution of
or modification to this etext.

LEGACY OF THE ANCIENTS

Galactic Museum Access Codes

(c) 1987 Electronic Arts 129207

*********

The following tables represent a compact version of the code wheel for
the Electronic Arts(TM) game Legacy of the Ancients, based on the
original code wheel and, in part, by a similar e-text named
"LACODE10.TXT" and written by "the Basic Bombardier" of Project 64.
This version is intended to be easier to use and smaller (less than
half the size of the P64 counterpart).  Before printing, it is
recommended that you add form feeds between each table (ASCII #12) to
make sure that tables aren't split up (each table is short enough to
fit on a standard printed page.  I have not added them myself, because
they may interfere with some plain-text viewing programs.


How to use:

Whenever you try to re-enter the Museum from the wilderness, you are
prompted to enter a number in response to three pieces of information:
A planet name, a gemstone name, and a ring number.

1.)  Look up the planet by the first three letters of its name (all have
     unique intial letter combinations) across the top of Table 1A or
     Table 1B (it will only be in one of these two tables).
2.)  Look down the side for the gemstone name (each name is spelled out).
     Read off the letter at the intersection of the planet and gemstone
     names.
3.)  Look at Table 2.  Go down to the row that corresponds to the letter
     found in step 2.  The number you should enter is the one under the
     column that has the same number as the ring number you were given.

For reference, the full planet names are as follows:

Aft=Afton      Gle=Glenmore    Ple=Plensars
Arc=Archolon   Hil=Hilncrost   Rog=Rogan
Ari=Arivus     Ign=Ignizt      Sat=Sathaln
Ban=Bantross   Jal=Jalfron     Tar=Tarmalon
Cam=Camerun    Lor=Lornar      Tel=Telgar
Dem=Demtratzi  Mer=Merrill     Tha=Thagan
Est=Estern     Moz=Mozariq     Tri=Trillaman
Fra=Frandor    Pha=Pharsteln   Zar=Zaryl

Example:  You are given Tarmalon, Opal, and Ring 5 as the key to
re-enter the Museum.  Tarmalon's abbreviation is Tar, which is in
Table 1B.  If you look down the left side for Opal, then across to
"Tar", you find the letter "E".  In Table 2, look across row E to
column #5.  You will see the number 41629.  This is your passcode to
get into the Museum.


Notes and Disclaimers:

This code wheel interpretation by Scott Earnest (currently available
at sinykal@cyberspace.org).  I have cross-checked my cross-reference
tables (Tables 1A and 1B) to make sure they are accurate, and I have
tried to verify all 216 passcodes by inspection.  I cannot guarantee
accuracy of this information.  The passcode table (Table 2) is a
modified version of the table given in the Project 64 file
LACODE10.TXT.  Note that I found one discrepancy between the code
wheel I have and the text in the Project 64's version.

Make sure that if the number has leading zeroes, YOU TYPE IN THE
ENTIRE NUMBER INCLUDING THE ZEROES.  The code will NOT work if the
leading zeroes are not typed in.

If you find any mistakes or have a problem with a particular code, jot
down the information you were prompted with, and I'll check it for an
error.

Legacy of the Ancients, code wheel, and documentation are copyright
1987 by Electronic Arts(TM) and Quest Software, Inc.  (Wheel part
#129207)

There is at least one cracked versions of Legacy of the Ancients
floating around that do not require the code wheel.  Rather, each
number you enter gets replaced by a "9".  So, if you're using the
cracked version of the game, ignore the planet and gemstone names, and
use this short table to get your passcode:

Ring  Code
----+------+
  1 |999999|
  2 |999999|
  3 |999999|
  4 | 99999|
  5 | 99999|
  6 | 99999|
  7 | 99999|
  8 |  9999|
  9 |  9999|
----+------+

The cracked version I've seen has two messages on the title screen.
On the picture of the entry to the museum is the text "CRACKED BY
SEVERIAN", and beneath the picture is "A ROCKY MOUNTAIN PIRATES GUILD
PRODUCTION".

Extra thanks to all those who have donated to the Apple // and Apple
// emulation world!
