Vectrex manual² project

[hcmffm]

Some contribution to the IPYVD: A draft version of Cosmic Chasm manual² is available, now.

The Mail Plane manual² is available, now. This is Vectrex manual² #25.



Some few years ago Federico Salerno and Manuele Rueberto (aka "100RetroShock") created and produced physical copies of Mail Plane. I had provided a empty template for the Mail Plane manual. Only 60 copies of Mail Plane became available. More copies were supposed to be produced but according to Federico, all graphics of the Mail Plane project were lost.
Mail Plane belongs to the series of original GCE games so I've vectorized the Mail Plane manual of Federico and Manuele. Most texts and design of this "new" Mail Plane manual are identical, some texts and graphics were changed.

Thanks to Mat (Mayhem) for reviewing and improving texts and Tony (50tbrd) for reviewing graphics!

That's great! Thank you!

Completely forgot: I also did the Mail Plane cartridge label from scratch.

Vectrex manual²s project has been idle for quite a while for personal reasons. Please note that this project hasn't been stopped - I'll finish it during the next months and years.

I've just browsed the web a bit and to my surprise I found unwanted mirrors of the Vectrex manual²s. E.g. on scribd user VECTREXER aka Chris R. has uploaded copies of the Vectrex manual²s.
Please note Tony Holcomb and I have rights on the Vectrex manual²s which are hand-vectorized. Please respect our rights and don't spread the Vectrex manual²s in the wild unless you have my and Tonys explicit written permission.

I've just realized that 10 years ago I've started this project - time to finish it. After a long pause vectorization activities have started, again. Manual² of Cosmic Chasm will available in the next 1-2 weeks.

After a long pause, Cosmic Chasm Manual² is finished, now. Tony (50tbrd ) did the logo (Thank you, Tony!). This is Vectrex manual² #26.

Next manual² will be Clean Sweep.
